When people spend 90% of the time indoors, designing with daylight becomes an obligation. Great daylight design brings the qualities of the outdoors into the building. Daylight brightens the mind and invigorates the body. It carries warmth, provides clarity, and creates spaces for meeting, talking, relaxing and learning. Modular Rooflights offer a range of product features and accessories to optimise the indoor climate by controlling daylight, heat and ventilation.
Control daylight and heat to create the best indoor climate. Modular Rooflights are designed to optimise the indoor climate and offer options to control daylight and heat.

Roller blinds
Roller blind installed on Linearlight
The internal roller blind RMR is designed for installation with Modular Rooflights. The blind protects against heat and glare and helps to control the amount of light in the building. The roller blind is available in any height from 725 mm up to 3,000 mm and in width from 600 mm up to 1,000 mm. It can be oriented in the top-bottom or side-side direction of the rooflight.
The motor for roller blind operation is hidden inside the rod
The roller blind is available for Monolight and Linearlight both fixed and venting, including burglary-resistant and walk-on modules. To support fast and safe installation of Modular Rooflights, it is possible to order roller blinds with hidden pre-wiring and completely pre-mounted from the factory.
Product details
The blind consists of four wheels, one in each corner of the rooflight upstand and two steel wires at the side of the blind. The two wires pull a lightweight polyester fabric available in three commonly used colours. VELUX roller blinds are electrically operated and can be controlled using either VELUX io-homecontrol or Open System ±24V (OS ±24 V DC).

The blind cloth of VELUX roller blinds is pulled on two tension steel wires on pulley wheels, which are accessible, when the roller blinds are installed on rooflights within reach, and therefore can cause serious injury if a person gets in contact with this during the electrical operation of the blind. VELUX roller blinds have a recommended minimum installation height of 2.5 m above floor level (inside) and ground level (outside). In case of installation below that level, safety measures must be applied by the installer/user to prevent serious injury. No instruction or measure can eliminate the inherent hazards resulting from installation heights below 2.5 m.
We recommend you to observe national regulations and consider if the planned specific use of the building requires that additional safety measures must be applied by the installer/user to prevent serious injury.
Comfort ventilation
Natural ventilation through the roof with Modular Rooflights. Electrically operated venting modules ensure fresh air and optimum indoor comfort.
Comfort venting modules
An optimal solution where light and natural ventilation is required. In venting modules for both Monolight and Linearlight, the actuator is fully integrated in the wooden upstand. The actuator is not visible from the inside when the module is closed, thus there is no visual difference between fixed and venting modules. A venting module is operated by either 1 actuator or 2 synchronised chain actuators depending on the clear internal area and module width.

Electrical system
The venting panels can be controlled by either a VELUX io-homecontrol a Motorlink™ or Open System ± 24V (OS ±24 V DC) control system and can be integrated in your preferred building management system.
