Room-darkening and blackout solutions for bedrooms, media rooms, nurseries and shift workers, combining shades, drapes, side channels and careful installation to keep light out.
When you need a room truly dark, the details matter. A blackout fabric alone is not enough if light sneaks around the edges. Homeowners in Nashville call us for bedrooms, media rooms, nurseries and for people who sleep during the day.
We explain the difference between room-darkening, which blocks most light, and blackout, which blocks nearly all of the light passing through the fabric. We then look at the edges, the top and the bottom, and use deeper mounts, overlap mounts, side channels, valances and layered drapes to reduce leaks. We plan the whole system, measure carefully and install it, then check the room with the lights off during the day to see what still shows. A truly dark room is a system, not a single product. We test the room with the lights off in the daytime, using a sample shade, and look for the places where light still gets in. Then we decide whether channels, overlaps or layered drapes will close the gaps. That testing step takes minutes and saves disappointment.
Room darkening blocks most light and blackout blocks nearly all light that passes through the fabric.
Side channels, overlaps and returns reduce the light that sneaks past the fabric.
A blackout shade with drapes in front is a very effective combination.
We check the room with lights off to see what still shows and adjust.
