Do Blackout Roller Blinds offer Room Darkening?

… Not Necessarily! Blind Magic offers “TRUE” custom-made room darkening blackout roller blinds.

What is more typical in the industry is roller shades with a blackout fabric that companies call “blackout” shades. Will these shades be blackout …No, far from it. The room may be darker but only by 70%. Often window covering companies offer black-out blinds as a bedroom or media room darkening solution to only have customers be dissatisfied with the 3/4″ side gaps where daylight will still beam into the room with the shade down.

The solution is room darkening black-out channels. For a minimal upgrade cost, you can add side and bottom room darkening channels that eliminate the light leaks. We have several styles and colors of “U” channels to fit every application and decor.

Roller shades are a great and inexpensive way, to add custom-made blinds in your home that give you the desired black-out effect. With an increase in modern decor homes today, roller shades are one of the more popular window coverings. They provide a simple clean appearance, easy to operate, collect very little dust, AND are one of the best room darkening window coverings available.
