Room darkening blinds are a great place to start, and we’d love to meet with you to make sure that you are choosing the best fabrics and features for your Milwaukee area home.
Room Darkening VS Blackout
The type of shades you choose + the opacity of the fabric both determine whether you have room darkening shades or blackout blinds. Removing most of the light from the room during the day is considered the result of room darkening blinds, while completely blocking out the light is considered the result of blackout shades. Your window covering specialist can help you determine which option will work best for you.
What about Light Gaps?
Light gaps refers to the halo of light you might see along the edges of your room darkening shades or blackout blinds. It’s a daytime concern, for the windows that face intense light in spaces like media rooms and bedrooms. For the ultimate blackout shades, look to the LightLock®system. This U-shaped channel fits to your window frame and seals light from entering. Another popular options to get rid of light gaps in to layer blackout curtains, covering the edges of the room darkening blinds.
Dual Shades: Light Filtering to Room Darkening
We call it the “best of both worlds” solution, where your view can go from sheer to completely blocked. You get the chance to view the landscape and enjoy diffused light, when you want, through the front light filtering shade. Need it dark during the day? Drop the secondary blackout roller shade into place, and you’ll get darkness, even when it’s bright outside, whether you’re adding living room or bedroom window treatments.
