Blackout Shades

Blackout shades can be a great addition to your home, adding privacy and helping to block out unwanted light. In some cases, though, you may want to be able to enjoy the beautiful Las Vegas sunlight. That's when you should consider the Select Duo Shade. It combines the best of both worlds – sunlight and a view of the outside world when you want it and darkness and privacy when you need it.

The Duo Shade combines a sheer or sun control shade with a privacy or blackout shade. The specially designed brackets make the two rolls look like one shade, and they can be easily operated by a remote or wall switch.

Whether you'd like to create a comfortably dark environment for your home theater or need to reduce light in your baby's room, these shades are ideal for any room in your home. They offer the following advantages:

Improved Sleep

As the time changes and we "spring forward," sunlight can filter into your bedroom, waking you up too early. Blackout shades will help darken the room and let you sleep later when you want to. In addition, if you work at night and sleep during the day or would simply like to take a nap, these shades will help you get the rest you need. They're also ideal for helping children get to sleep. It can stay light late into the evening during the summer, so it can be hard to get them to sleep at a decent hour when outside light is still streaming into their rooms.

Reduced Light Pollution

Many people are subjected to light pollution, whether it’s from a nearby streetlight or lights from a Las Vegas business. Duo Shades will block this unwanted light out when you need to and let the sun shine in when you want.

Increased Privacy

Especially in bedrooms or bathrooms, you need privacy when you’re inside the sanctity of your home. Blackout shades can help prevent neighbors, passersby, or people who ring your doorbell from seeing inside your home.

Reduced Energy Bills

Blackout shades help insulate your home, keeping your heated and cooled air inside. They also help reduce the sun’s harsh glare and correspondingly higher indoor temperatures. Your home will be able to stay at a more constant, comfortable temperature as a result.

Protection from Fading

The sun's UV rays can fade flooring, artwork, and more. Blackout shades will help protect your belongings from this damage.

Reduced Noise

Whether it’s the neighbor's children playing noisily outside or the annoying buzz of a lawnmower, blackout shades will cut down on some of the outside noise that reaches the inside of your home.

The versatility provided by Duo Shades will help add to your home’s comfort and enjoyment. We can size them to fit almost any opening and would be happy to give you more information about your options. Call us at 702-260-6110.
