Best Blackout Blinds for Home Theaters

Blackout Double Cellular Blinds

Cellular window coverings with two layers of honeycomb pockets are a better option than single cell shades for your entertainment room. 

In addition to blocking glare and glow from the sun and the street lights, they help insulate and block noise! These window blinds come in lots of colors to suit your home’s aesthetics. 

Plus, they retract to such a small size that you won’t have to sacrifice your view!

Blackout Rollers

If you are looking for a sleeker, light-blocking shade for your modern home cinema, go with roll-up blackout blinds. Without any extra fabric, they offer a more space-saving option. 

Even closing this blackout roller shade takes up very little space, preserving your full view to the outside.

You can also add a super high-tech motorized option for remote, voice, or app-powered operation. This option is best for skylights and other hard-to-reach windows.

Blackout Romans

Either buy a heavy fabric roman shade or add a blackout option to your existing Roman shade. Light-rejecting liners beautifully add function and fashion to your window treatment.

They are often made from the same fabric as draperies and can be color-coordinated for a cohesive look in your entertainment room’s interior.

Light-Blocking Drapery Panels

Want to make your home theater look more like a real home cinema? Choose light-blocking drapery panels with a blackout liner to achieve hotel-level darkness.

A shade with bellowing (coated-textile folded in accordion) fabric comes with an added bonus - it can dampen sound. Go with this option if your media room is struggling with echoes or a lot of noise from outside.

For better light control and a more stylistically perfect look, layer your draperies over light filtering window blinds. A completely cordless control makes them an ideal choice for family movie nights.

Room-Darkening Curtains

Made from heavier and thicker fabrics, room darkening curtains are a classic solution to control light in your entertainment room

They come with lots of patterns to match and beautify your movie room’s interior decor. However, they have a drawback – they only create a room darkening effect, and not a 100% blackout.

99% Opaque Solar Shades

Choose 99% opaque solar shades to control light, kill glare, and save furniture and furnishings in your movie room from fading or greater sun damage.

With just 1% openness factor, they will allow minimal diffused light to sail into your movie room.

Key Considerations

  • Size: Measure true width, height (e.g. 115 x 120), and depth (for an inside mount) of your cinema’s window.
  • Color: Consider colors like daylight, amber, ivory, dove gray, etc.
  • Fabric: Choose a heat-resistant, long-lasting synthetic fabric.
  • Mount Style: Mount your new, fresh nightfall blinds for home cinema inside, outside, or to the exterior.
  • Sample: Get a free sample to see how the opaque fabrics, colors, and textures look and work in your unique decor settings before finally selecting and buying custom-made movie room blackout blinds for windows.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you blackout windows in a movie room?

Want to create an immersive viewing space in your home theater for improved image quality, color, and brightness? Hang blackout curtains, paint the window panes with a dark color, or put up a wall in front of the window openings. Additional tips include painting the room and furniture darker, and limiting reflective objects in the media room.

What blinds are best for night shift workers?

If you work during night, you will need a night-like, noise-free, and temperature regulated environment to enjoy perfect sleep during the day. We recommend double-cellular blackout blinds or vision blinds that are made-to-measure for a perfect fit. You can also combine amber glasses with insulating rollers.

How do you cover a window for a media room?

When installed on the windows of your media room, opaque fabric shades, such as double cellulars, rollers, and romans, can make a big difference! They also take care of the visual interest of your home theater’s decor.

What are the disadvantages of blackout blinds?

Blackout blinds are more difficult to clean, as they are made from tightly woven or cellular fabrics.

They may not provide as much insulation. Plus, they may completely rob you of natural light.
