Which blackout shade?

  • Blackout roller shade

    One solid sheet of blackout fabric. With a cassette over the roll and an outside mount, it is the darkest shade we make.

    Best for: Day sleepers, night-shift workers, home theatres

    Customize
  • Blackout zebra shade

    Two striped layers that pass each other: line up the bands for daylight, close them to darken the room. Dark, but not pitch-black.

    Best for: Bedrooms that are also used during the day

    Customize
  • Blackout cellular shade

    Honeycomb cells trap air, so the shade insulates the window and dampens outside noise while it blocks the light.

    Best for: Bedrooms, nurseries, cold rooms and basements

    Customize
  • Blackout Dream Shade & sheer

    The softer look of a sheer, with blackout fabric for the evening.

    Best for: Living rooms and bedrooms where the look comes first

A blackout fabric is not yet a dark room

Blackout fabric stops light passing through it, not around it. The light that wakes you up comes in at the edges. Three choices close them.

  1. 1. Blackout fabric. Every shade on this page opens with only blackout fabrics to choose from.
  2. 2. A cassette on top. An open roll leaves the top of the fabric exposed. A cassette covers the roll and the gap above it.
  3. 3. An outside mount. An inside mount needs a small clearance at each side. An outside mount overlaps the frame and cuts those gaps. Inside vs outside mount

More on blackout

Blackout blinds FAQ

Do blackout blinds make a room completely dark?
Blackout fabric stops light passing through the fabric, not around it. Every shade has small gaps at the sides, and an open roll leaves the top exposed. For the darkest room, choose a blackout roller shade with a cassette over the roll and mount it outside the window frame so it overlaps the edges.
Which blackout shade is best for a bedroom?
For pitch-black, a blackout roller shade with a cassette. If you want daylight during the day and darkness at night, a blackout zebra shade. If the room runs cold or noisy, a blackout honeycomb cellular shade, which also insulates the window and dampens outside noise.
How much do blackout blinds cost?
Blackout roller shades start from $52.80 CAD, blackout honeycomb cellular shades from $72.00 CAD and blackout zebra shades from $139.20 CAD. The configurator prices your exact size as you go.
Can I see the blackout fabrics before I order?
Yes. Order up to 5 fabric samples free, including standard shipping within Canada, or visit our Toronto showroom.
Can blackout shades be motorized?
Choose the control when you customize your shade: the control step shows the chain, cordless and motorized options that shade offers.
Do you ship blackout blinds across Canada?
Yes. Every shade is custom made in our Toronto facility within 2 business days and ships free anywhere in Canada.
