What are blackout blinds?

Blackout blinds are a type of window treatment that are designed to completely block out light from entering a room. These blinds are typically made of a thick, heavy material, such as vinyl or fabric, that is coated with a special light-blocking layer. Blackout blinds are often used in bedrooms or in rooms where light needs to be blocked out for other reasons such as media rooms or rooms with intense amounts of sun.

How do blackout blinds work?

There are a few ways that blackout blinds can work. The most common type of blackout blind uses a fabric that is coated in a light-blocking material. Blackout blinds can also be made of a variety of materials, including wood, aluminum, PVC and polyester. Rolli shades uses polyester fabrics with a blackout coating on the back to stop all light from coming through and still showcasing the premium fabric inside your home. They can be custom-made to fit any window size and can be installed either inside or outside the window frame.
