Blackout shades in roller, cellular and Roman styles with opaque fabrics and optional side channels, for bedrooms, nurseries, media rooms and anyone who needs a truly dark room.
A dark room helps people sleep, nap and watch a screen without glare. Blackout shades block most of the light that passes through the fabric, and good installation controls the rest. Families in Nashville choose them for bedrooms, nurseries, shift workers and media rooms.
We show blackout roller, cellular and Roman shades, and explain that light can still leak around the edges. Side channels, deeper mounts, overlap mounts and layered drapes reduce the gaps. We measure carefully, choose a mount that fits the window and install the shade so the edges overlap the frame. We also talk about cordless and motorized lifts for safety and convenience. Light leaks are the thing that surprises people most about blackout shades. A shade that blocks nearly all light through the fabric can still show a halo at the edges. We talk openly about those gaps and how to reduce them with deeper mounts, overlaps or side channels, so your expectations match the result you will get at home.
Blackout roller, cellular and Roman shades differ in look and how much space they use.
Edge gaps let light in, so we use deeper mounts, overlaps or side channels where needed.
Drapes over a blackout shade add softness and block even more light.
Cordless and motorized lifts keep cords away from cribs and beds.
