Blackout blinds are the ideal solution for controlling light, assuring privacy, and reaping other benefits.
We often refer to quality sleep as “a good night’s rest”. However, not everyone sleeps at night. If you work at night, you need a “good day’s rest” instead. A good environment for sleeping is essential, and that means the sun cannot be glaring into the room. Children and infants who take naps during the day also need a darkened room.
At J Ross Shutters and Blinds, we know that these are only two scenarios in which blackout blinds can come in handy. Regardless of what objectives you are trying to achieve, we can help you with window covering options that will look great and provide the benefits you need.

FAQs About Blackout Blinds
Getting the right amount of light in your home can make a big difference in how comfortable each room feels. Blackout blinds help create darker bedrooms for rest or the ideal setting for a media room. Here are answers to common questions about choosing blackout blinds.
What is the difference between blackout blinds and room-darkening blinds?
You might hear these terms used interchangeably, but there is a difference. Room-darkening fabrics can make a room very dark, while true blackout blinds are designed for a higher level of light blockage. The fabric, liner, mounting style, and gaps around the window can all affect how dark the room becomes.
Will blackout blinds make a room completely dark?
The amount of light blocked depends on the window covering and how it is installed. Even a highly opaque shade can allow some light around the edges if there are gaps between the treatment and the window frame. If you want complete darkness, you can consider options such as outside mounting, liners, side panels, or specialized side channels.
Can blackout blinds help with privacy?
Yes, blackout blinds provide a high level of privacy because their opaque fabrics limit visibility through the window.
Are blackout blinds available in different styles?
Yes, Hunter Douglas offers several styles, including roller shades and cellular shades, along with different fabrics, liners, and operating options. The right choice depends on how much light you want to block, the look you prefer, and how you use the room. Our team can help you compare available options.
Can blackout blinds be automated?
There are automated shade options that can be operated with a remote or through an app, depending on the product and system. You can also schedule shades to open or close at specific times, which can be convenient for bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms.
