Back to Black
Looking for total darkness, better sleep, or reduced glare? At Ashley Blinds, we specialise in made-to-measure blackout blinds that combine practicality with style. Whether you’re blocking out morning sunlight, creating a home cinema or helping little ones nap during the day, we’ll help you choose the perfect fit for your space. Our expertly fitted blackout blinds are the ideal solution for bedrooms, nurseries, media rooms, and more.
When you put a blind in a window you are basically putting a square peg in a round hole. Light will always find a way and there will be some degree of light bleeding through so it’s important to set realistic expectations and speak to true experts. No product is completely blackout, but many of our customers are more than happy with how much the glare is reduced. Consider this: the cheaper the product, the more light leakage is likely. The higher the quality, the less leakage you’ll typically experience.
Where Blackout Blinds Work Best
- Bedrooms – Sleep better with complete light control
- Nurseries & Children’s Rooms – Support naps and early bedtimes
- Shift workers – Block out daytime light for restful sleep
- Home Cinemas – Enhance your viewing experience
- Offices & Studies – Reduce glare on screens and work in comfort
- Conservatories – reduces a considerable amount of heat gain keeping the hole house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
Our Blackout Blind Options
We supply and fit a wide range of blackout blind styles, including:
- Roller blinds – Clean, simple and effective with a range of blackout fabrics. Often paired with blackout-lined Roman blinds or curtains.
- Vertical blinds – Great for larger windows and patio doors, offering sufficient dimming for TVs and screens.
- Roman blinds with blackout linings – Stylish and practical, especially when fitted outside the recess. Often paired with another item as the blind sits proud of its mechanism.
