blackout blinds for bedroom

Many people struggle to get a good night’s sleep because of light that filters in from streetlights, nearby businesses, or cars’ headlights. If you have that problem, blackout blinds for bedroom are the solution.

How Blackout Shades Can Improve Your Quality of Life

Reducing the amount of light in your bedroom can make it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. When you’re well rested, you’ll be more focused and productive at work. You’ll also be in a better mood, have more energy, and be healthier overall.

Blackout shades offer additional benefits that are often overlooked. They can block out noise, which can contribute to a more peaceful and relaxing environment. Not to mention, they can keep heat out in the summer so you can use the air conditioner less. In the winter, you can open the shades during the day to let the sun warm your bedroom naturally, then close the shades to retain heat at night instead of relying on the furnace.

How to Choose the Right Blackout Blinds for Bedroom

Knox Blinds offers several types of window treatments that can filter out light and help you sleep soundly:

• Cellular shades (also known as honeycomb shades) have a series of small pockets that can make your house more energy efficient and lower your utility bills.
• Roller shades can be raised during the day to let light in and lowered at night to block it out. You can choose from a variety of styles and textures.
• Roman shades have an attractive pleated design. Some are batten in the front or back, while others have folds down the center. Choosing a thick material will translate to excellent light control.
• Woven wood shades can add a bit of natural beauty to your bedroom, no matter the décor. A privacy liner can enhance their light blocking capabilities.

With our wide selection, you can choose from a range of options that block out light to varying degrees. Consider the orientation of your bedroom, how much sunlight it gets in the morning, and whether your bedroom window faces a street. Those factors will help you select the shade opacity that best fits your needs, whether it’s blackout, light filtering or room darkening.
