LightLock

The Duette® LightLock™ system features an innovative design that blocks incoming light from all angles, creating near-total darkness without the need for curtains. It also prevents visibility from either side, offering exceptional privacy and light control.

The Best in Room Darkening

The innovative U-shaped side channels of the Duette® LightLock™ system are designed to block incoming light with incredible precision. Each channel has a black, ridged interior surface that traps and absorbs light from all directions, no matter the strength. This makes it an excellent blackout solution for bedrooms, media rooms, nurseries, or any space where you want total darkness. LightLock™ offers a clean, integrated look while delivering exceptional performance in light control and privacy.
