How to Check Your VELUX Window Code
Not sure if your window is a VELUX 404? Checking is easy:
Open your roof window.
Look for the metal plate fixed to the sash.
On the plate, you’ll see a prefix (e.g. GGL, GGU) followed by a size code (e.g. 404).
If your plate shows 404, our blinds are guaranteed to fit.
Blackout or Light Filtering?
When choosing your VELUX 404 blinds, the first decision is whether you want blackout or light-filtering fabric:
-
Blackout Blinds – Ideal for bedrooms and home cinemas. They create near-total darkness, helping improve sleep and block early morning sunlight.
-
Light-Filtering Blinds – Great for living areas and kitchens where you want to reduce glare while still allowing natural light to brighten the room.
Many customers even mix both styles in their home for maximum flexibility.
Manual, Motorised or Solar Powered
You can also choose how your blind operates:
-
Manual Operation – Simple pull-control, the most affordable option.
-
Motorised – Remote-controlled blinds for effortless convenience.
-
Solar Powered – Energy-efficient blinds powered by an integrated solar panel, perfect for hard-to-reach windows without wiring.
Each option is designed to integrate seamlessly with your VELUX 404 window.
