Light Blocking Roller Shades: Where to Start?

While traditional roller shades are made from thinner fabrics, light-blocking varieties are spun from a more rugged, opaque material. Often referred to as blackout roller shades, this design excels at blocking out the sun’s rays. It also helps insulate your spaces, which is ideal in summer (or winter) when you want to maintain comfortable indoor temps.

More advanced options, such as Solar shades, are made from a material that reflects and absorbs UV rays. These window shades will still let in a glimmer of natural light. At the same time, they minimize glare and protect your furniture, artwork, carpets, and clothing against fading.

At Knoxville Blinds & Shutters, our selection of window treatments includes several light-blocking options. Each style is available in a range of colors, patterns, and fabrics. This gives you complete control over the look of your new covering. Whichever option you choose, you will have peace of mind knowing that your shades are engineered to last.

Our blinds professionals will visit your property, bringing along product samples of some of our top light blocking roller shades. It’s a chance for you to see these window treatments in person, giving you a good sense of which styles work best in your rooms. Our experts will be on hand to answer your questions.
