    Looking for black out blinds for my velux windows. Velux own brand around 120 euros and is too dear. Any ideas? My windows are GGL 606.

    Chadwicks Builders Providers in Coolock are very very good value for Velux blinds.

    I got 4 large GGL S06 sized thermal solar powered blackout blinds (I chose grey colour to suit the rooms) for alot less than any other website or shop could get them for me.

    Chadwicks for the win.:)

    Do you really think I want to have to reach up that high with a Velux pole and mess around opening them and closing them all the time??:D

    Remote control while lying in the comfort of my bed.:)

    I,ll dig out the invoice and have a look.;)

    Took just under a week for Velux to make them for me,as they didnt have grey coloured blackout blinds there ready to go.

    Ordered them through Chadwicks on a Friday morning,and had them the following Thursday.

    Very very easy to fit as they basicly just "click" into position.

    If you can,then go for the solar powered blinds.

    They really are great and hassle free.

    The kids will also love them,having a race to see whos blind closes 1st.Even the adults too.....especially when deciding whos turn it is to go downstairs to the kitchen and make the tea.:D

    I was shopping for some GGL M04 blackout roller blinds lately.

    Best price I found was on E-Bay @ £46 each including delivery.

    Thats not the size you are after though.

    M04 is s smaller blind,and a smaller price,so dont forget that.Also colour choice will also add on extra euros.

    Yours is GGL 606/S06 isnt it??
