How to prevent light from passing through a window blind?

Is the light leaking in through your window blinds preventing your room from being completely dark? Is this causing you to have difficulty sleeping? We have the solution to solve your problem!

 

There are many reasons for wanting complete darkness whether it involves having a restless sleep due to lighting or having a job that involves a unique sleeping schedule.

 

Once you install your window roller shade, the opaque material will block out a great amount of light from entering your space. Although, there may be some remaining light leakage that will still shine through the space between your window and blind. When window roller blinds are produced at the manufacture, they must remove 1/8 of an inch in order to prevent the window blind from becoming damaged or rubbing against the window.

 

When purchasing your shades, one of the decisions to make is whether you would like an inside or outside mount. When your shade is installed as an outside mount, it is positioned on the exterior of the window frame which in return, will be more effective at blocking the light from passing through. The reason being is that an outside mount provides better coverage over the entire window which leads to less spaces for light to come through.

How to completely block light from these spaces?

One of the biggest priorities when it comes to buying blackout shades is assuring that the correct measurements are accounted for. This will aid in the process of maximum light blockage due to the fact that a window blind that is too short or not wide enough in length will let in a great amount of sun rays.

 

The expertise of our professionals is accessible at all times to help assure a proper fit for your window shades. Additionally, they are available to provide guidance on how to avoid taking limiting measurements.

 

Following the process of taking down the measurements for your shades, it is important to make sure that the installation of the blind is done fittingly. The help of a professional installer can be an option throughout this process.

 

Another alternative solution is pairing some blackout window curtains with your blackout window blind. This solution also adds some style to your space while also providing a useful light blocking solution.

Light blockers as an additional solution

This product is composed of adhesive strips that are installed on the inside frame of edges of a window in order to block light. They are not expensive and extremely useful!
