    • Measure the width at the very top of your window (where the headrail will be installed). Use this measurement to ensure your shade fits properly.
    • Inside mounts require adequate window frame depth. Confirm the required depth for your desired lift type in the product specifications below.
  • OUTSIDE MOUNT:
    • Enter the bracket-to-bracket size you wish the blinds to be made.

    • For tight openings (such as between cabinets or walls), choose an inside mount for proper deductions.

Note: Width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8".

Product Description



« Back
The Modern Blackout Roller Shades offer many designer colors and textures as well as more traditional options. These shades will completely block light coming through the shade itself while also providing privacy.

These shades can be ordered with both standard and reverse rolls. They come standard with a beaded chain lift but can also be upgraded to cordless lift or motorization. You can even add a decorative cassette headrail to cover the roller at the top for a cleaner look.

This product has been GREENGUARD Certified for low emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Note: Some shades will be seamed and railroaded due to the their size. If you have any questions on this, please do not hesitate to give us a call.

Note: Made with blackout fabric and designed for near-total blackout, these shades block about 99% of light. Minimal edge gaps may allow a small amount of light in, which is standard for blackout shades. For added light control, consider adding our Side Light Blockers.

What are Modern Blackout Roller Shades?




Modern Blackout Roller Shades are sleek, custom-made window coverings with blackout fabric designed to block most external light, providing enhanced darkness, privacy, and glare reduction for your space.






How do blackout roller shades work?




Blackout roller shades use specialized opaque fabrics that prevent light from passing through, creating a darkened room when the shade is fully lowered. This helps control daylight, reduces glare, and promotes sleep or media viewing comfort.






Do blackout shades provide privacy?




Yes. When fully lowered, blackout roller shades block visibility from outside, giving you full privacy in bedrooms, bathrooms, media rooms, or any other area where privacy is important.






Can blackout roller shades help reduce noise?




Yes. While not soundproof, blackout fabrics can help absorb some noise and reduce reverberation, making spaces feel quieter than with uncovered windows.






Are these shades energy efficient?




Yes. Blackout roller shades can help minimize heat gain by blocking direct sunlight, which can improve indoor comfort and potentially reduce cooling costs in warm climates.






Can I customize the size of Modern Blackout Roller Shades?




Yes. These blackout roller shades are custom made to order based on your exact window width and height measurements for a precise, tailored fit.






What lift systems are available?




Modern Blackout Roller Shades are available with standard chain lift, cordless lift systems for safer use in homes with children or pets, and optional motorized lift systems for remote or smart control.






How do I clean blackout roller shades?




Light dusting with a soft cloth or a gentle vacuum brush attachment keeps the shades clean. For deeper cleaning, lightly wipe the fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow it to dry completely.






Are blackout roller shades suitable for bedrooms?




Yes. Their ability to block most external light makes them an excellent choice for bedrooms, especially if you need better sleep quality or reduced morning light.






Can blackout roller shades protect furniture from fading?




Yes. By blocking UV rays and direct sunlight, blackout shades can help reduce fading of furnishings, flooring, and décor.






Are blackout shades safe for homes with children and pets?




Yes. Choosing cordless lift systems eliminates dangling cords, making them a safer window treatment option in homes with children and pets.






Can these shades be motorized?




Yes. Modern Blackout Roller Shades can be equipped with a motorized lift for convenient operation via remote control or smart device.






Will blackout roller shades work well in media rooms?




Absolutely. Their ability to block most external light and reduce glare makes them ideal for media rooms, home theaters, or any space where darkness enhances viewing.






Do blackout roller shades reduce glare?




Yes. By blocking direct light, these blackout roller shades significantly reduce glare on screens, making them useful for offices, living rooms, and entertainment spaces.






What warranty coverage is included?




Modern Blackout Roller Shades include a 3-year warranty, with the option to upgrade to a 5-year warranty for extended peace of mind.
