Sleep Well with the Best Room-Darkening Shades

Harmony Blinds & Shutters • November 30, 2021
When we need to sleep, the darker, the better. The best room-darkening shades on the market create a range of light control from filtration to an impressive light blockage so that our bedrooms are primed for rest and also optimal for use during other times of the day. To achieve this, the best room-darkening shades often utilize dual-construction designs that combine two treatments (and the benefits of two treatments) into one window fashion.
Norman DayNite™ Shutters San Diego, California (CA) the best room-darkening shades for bedrooms and nurseries

That way, the treatment is ideal for use during different times of the day and all sorts of bedrooms, including master suites, guest rooms, children's rooms, and nurseries.

  • Duolite® from Hunter Douglas: Duolite® is an innovative treatment that combines two shades onto a single roller unit. The final treatment contains a shade to filter light and a shade to block light, which is why it is one of the best room-darkening shades for bedrooms. All bedrooms are used during the day and night, so this flexible window shade is especially useful for the different applications of those very different times. Additionally, Duolite® shades can have a cellular element added to their design that makes them better insulators and noise blockers, two other important factors that create an optimized sleeping area.
  • Norman DayNite™ Shutters: Norman created one of the best room-darkening shades for bedrooms by combining their cellular shade with insulating features and an interior folding shutter for a multi-dimensional window treatment that blocks light and noise. DayNite™ Shutters can also block hot weather in the summer and cold chills in the winter, so year-round, these room-darkening shades enhance sleeping areas with light control and sound and temperature control.
  • Layered Treatments: For truly custom looks, pair your own two treatments together in a layered look to create stylized shades that suit your tastes and are better at blocking light. Complementary pairs of window treatments include full drapery and shutters or side panels and cellular shades. The key to matching two treatments in a single look is to be sure that they cover each other's weaknesses and enhance each other's strengths. For example, drapery pairs well with treatments that fit like shutters or rollers shades into a window frame. The drapery can then block light leaks around the edges of the base layer, enhancing the overall blackout effect. In return, the shutters or roller shades offer another layer of light blockage and insulation to the main body of drapery when the treatment is fully closed, again making the widow fashion as a whole more adept at blocking light and creating dark interiors ideal for sleep.

If you want (or need) the bedrooms in your home to be better suited for a good night's sleep, consider upgrading to room-darkening shades. Their light-blocking abilities can create darker interiors or flexible light control depending on what homeowners need.
