How To Get 100% Blackout Shades

While certain window treatments offer some degree of light control, they will not provide the ultimate blackout effect. Because even when fully closed, shades with adjustable slats or vanes cannot completely seal the gaps between the slats or vanes. Therefore light can seep through these openings, especially around the edges or corners, preventing a truly darkened environment.


  • 100% Blackout Shades - You need side channels to eliminate all incoming light. Innovative side and sill channels eliminate light gaps in your room.
  • 99% Blackout Shades - Use a special blackout material or adding a blackout liners on the back to block up to 99% of light. Solid treatments like blackout roller shades, roman shades with blackout liners, or custom-made drapery with blackout liners are your best bet, as they provide complete coverage without gaps, ensuring the desired effect.
  • On a budget? Add stationary curtain panels on the sides, and a top valance for that room-darkening effect.
