Best Blackout Blinds for Bedrooms & Nurseries
If you're waking with the sunrise or fighting to get a baby down for naps, the fix is usually the same: a true blackout blind. Here's how to choose the right one for bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms.
Blackout vs. room-darkening — what's the difference?
Blackout fabrics block virtually all light through the material for the darkest possible room. Room-darkening fabrics block most light for a softer dim — great if you still want a little ambient glow. Note that any blind installed inside the window frame lets a thin halo of light in around the edges; an outside mount (covering the frame) gets you closer to total darkness.
Our blackout picks
- Blackout roller shades — Astra, Monarch and Solace block light completely with a clean, classic look.
- Prefer a modern banded style? The Luna blackout zebra shade combines the day-night look with true blackout.
- Want a softer dim? See our room-darkening shades, Velour and Eclipse.
Bedrooms
For the deepest sleep, choose a blackout roller in a darker colour and mount it outside the frame. Browse everything suited to the room in Bedroom blinds.
Nurseries & kids' rooms
Darker rooms mean longer naps. Our Nursery & Kids collection focuses on blackout fabrics so little ones can sleep day or night. Every blind is custom-made to your window.
