Blackout drapery, when drawn, prevents all sunlight from coming through your window.
Blackout drapery is designed for rooms where you need the option of total darkness during the day. It is perfect for creating a nice cool room for your children to nap in the afternoon and having a soothing dark room to wake up to when you sleep in on the weekend. If you want to watch a movie, draw your blackout drapery to create the perfect movie theater experience. Blackout drapery will also help prevent solar radiation damage to your furniture and to your floors.
Blackout drapery has an opaque material between the outer and inner layers of the drapes. This layer prevents any light from passing. Depending on the design of your blackout drapery, it may also have insulation qualities to help keep warm energy in your home during the Winter and to keep warmth out of your home during the Summer months.
Many people, after they install blackout drapery, wonder how they ever lived without it in the past. Give blackout drapery a try. You will be glad that you did!
