Taking Control with Modern Blackout Window Treatments
Functionally, the term "blackout window treatments" means one thing – the ultimate light control for having perfect darkness in any room. Aesthetically, "blackout window treatments" can mean any number of things because the truth is there are optional upgrades for almost every type of window treatment these days that can transform it into a blackout window treatment. So, let the Fine Shadings & Décor team walk you through the different options in the Hunter Douglas collection for the ultimate guide to light-blocking properties for drapery, blinds, roller shades, and cellular shades.
Drapery
When it comes to custom drapes, the key to upgrading the treatment's room-darkening ability is fabric choice and liners. Fabrics with tighter weaves allow less light through, while darker colors are better at absorbing sunlight, which helps improve the drape's room-darkening abilities.
Add a light-blocking back liner for blackout treatments to block light more fully from passing through the textiles. Another benefit of drapes as blackout window treatments is that they can be installed far outside the boundary of the window frame, sometimes as tall as floor to ceiling or as wide as wall to wall, which helps the treatment smother any light trying to leak around the edges.
Blinds
Blinds are naturally good at blocking sunlight because their hard vanes are completely impervious to light. The delight™ feature from Hunter Douglas elevates this by minimizing the cord holes and thus also minimizing the light coming through those holes for darker interiors. Homeowners can also pair blinds with side panels or custom drapery for additional layers of light control. The layered window fashion will benefit from the blind's solid base layer and provide an interesting visual while being an effective light-blocking treatment.
Roller Shades
The Hunter Douglas Duolite® system will elevate Designer Roller Shades into blackout window treatments by adding a back, room-darkening shade to the treatment. The innovative Duolite® system allows two window treatments to operate harmoniously off a single roller unit. The front shade is light filtering, the back shade is room darkening, and the combined effect is a spectrum of light control from soft filtration to blackout darkness.
Cellular Shades
Not only do Duette® Cellular Shades excel at temperature control with an insulating honeycomb design, but the energy-efficient window covering can also be transformed into a blackout window treatment with the addition of LightLock®. LightLock® is an exclusive system that virtually eliminates light leaks around the sides of cellular shades by using a U-shaped track that can deflect or absorb the sunlight. Thus allowing homeowners to create interior illumination ideal for any activity in the dark, from enjoying a movie night with family to a relaxing afternoon nap.
