VELUX RHL Roller Blind — Description
The manually operated VELUX RHL roller blind is an economical, hook-operated solution for basic light control. It combines a decorative fabric with simple 3-position operation using side hooks.
This roller blind is the perfect choice for rooms that need to be dimmed without complete blackout, such as living rooms, home offices, or hallways. It softens incoming daylight and improves comfort while still allowing natural light into the room.
VELUX RHL roller blinds are available in 4 classic colours: beige, white, navy blue, and grey. The fabric is elegant, durable, and fade-resistant, ensuring a long-lasting appearance even with regular sun exposure.
For additional heat protection, you can combine the VELUX RHL roller blind with a VELUX external awning blind.
If, besides complete blackout, you need better thermal insulation, choose the VELUX FHC Pleated Blind (honeycomb structure). Its inner aluminum coating reduces heat loss in winter and improves summer comfort more effectively than standard blackout fabrics. Check out the VELUX FHC Blackout Energy Blind.
VELUX RHL roller blinds do not have blackout properties. If you are interested in total blackout, you can find genuine VELUX blackout roller blinds in our VELUX blackout roller blinds category.

FAQ: VELUX RHL Roller Blind (Expert Answers)
Does the VELUX RHL roller blind provide total blackout?
No. The VELUX RHL roller blind is a dimming blind, not a blackout model. It reduces and softens the light but does not provide a 100% blackout effect. For total darkness, choose a VELUX blackout roller blind (e.g. DKL or DBL).
How is the RHL roller blind operated?
The RHL roller blind is operated manually using hooks on the side of the frame. You simply pull the blind down and hook it into one of the three predefined positions to control how much light enters the room.
In which rooms is the RHL roller blind recommended?
This model is ideal for rooms where you want softer light but not full blackout, such as living rooms, dining rooms, corridors, or home offices. For bedrooms and children’s rooms, a blackout roller blind will usually be a better choice.
Can I combine the RHL roller blind with other VELUX products?
Yes. For better heat protection in summer, you can combine the RHL roller blind with an external VELUX awning blind (MHL). The awning stops the heat before it reaches the glass, while the RHL model dims the light inside.
