Roller Shades

Q: How “blackout” are blackout roller shades?

Blackout fabric blocks light through the cloth. To minimize edge and top gaps, use a cassette and optional side channels, and consider an outside mount with generous overlap.

Q: Blackout vs. solar shades—what’s the difference?

Blackout gives darkness and privacy with no view out. Solar cuts glare and UV while keeping daytime view. Many homes mix solar in living areas and blackout in bedrooms.

Q: What’s a cassette, and do I need one?

A cassette is a slim fascia that hides the roll and helps block top light. It creates a clean, built-in look and pairs well with side channels.

Q: Chain, cordless or motorized—what should I choose?

Cordless is tidy and child-safe. Chain is affordable and precise. Motorized adds remote, app, voice and schedules—great for multiple or hard-to-reach windows.

Q: Do motors integrate with Google/Alexa and scenes?

Yes. With a compatible hub we can set scenes (e.g., Movie Night), schedules, and voice commands via Google/Alexa.

Q: Are chain-operated shades child-safe?

We install tensioned chain guides and safety hardware, or recommend cordless/motorized in kids’ rooms for best safety.

Q: Inside vs. outside mount—which gives better blackout?

Outside mount with overlap typically darkens more. For inside mounts, precise sizing, a cassette, and side channels help.

Blackout & Light Control

How “blackout” are blackout roller shades?

Blackout fabric blocks light through the cloth. To minimize edge/top gaps, use a cassette and optional side channels, and consider an outside mount with generous overlap.

Do side channels really make a difference?

Yes—channels capture light that would spill along the fabric edges. They’re popular for bedrooms/media rooms and windows facing strong street or sunrise light.

Blackout vs. solar shades—what’s the difference?

Blackout gives darkness and privacy (no view out). Solar cuts glare/UV while keeping daytime view. Many homes mix solar in living areas and blackout in bedrooms.

Will there be light at the hem bar or sill?

A small halo can appear at the bottom on some frames. Precise measure, outside mount overlap, and sill seals/side channels help reduce it.
