About blackout shades
In a Calgary June, the sun can be up before 5:30 in the morning and still glowing after 10 at night. For light sleepers, babies and anyone working shifts, that makes a dark bedroom a real comfort.
Blackout shades use an opaque fabric that blocks light through the material itself. To get a room truly dark, the fit matters as much as the fabric. Options like side channels, an outside mount or a cassette at the top help reduce the light that sneaks around the edges.
Blackout fabrics are available in roller and honeycomb styles, from soft whites that look light by day to deep navies and charcoals. We will help you pick a combination that keeps the room dark without making it feel heavy.
Blackout shades also suit basement media rooms and home theatres, where controlling every bit of daylight makes screens look their best. In nurseries, pairing a cordless blackout shade with a soft drapery adds both darkness and a gentle, finished look.
