Room-Darkening WIndow Treatment FAQs
What types of room-darkening products do you offer?
We have many different styles of room-darkening products including roller shades, Roman shades, woven shades, drapes, shutters, and more. These treatments can be paired together to create a layered look with flexible light control & room-darkening capabilities.
Which rooms are room-darkening window treatments needed in?
That depends on your lifestyle and how you use your home but generally speaking, room-darkening window treatments are most often used in bedrooms, nurseries, and home theaters (or wherever your primary television is located).
Room-darkening treatments in bedrooms are especially helpful for individuals who work nightshift and need to sleep during the daytime. They are also our recommended choice for bedrooms that have windows that face streetlights, landscape lights, or high-trafficked streets.
Your Drapery Street designer will help you determine which rooms in your home could benefit from room-darkening treatments and which only need light-filtering treatments.
Can I achieve complete darkness/total blackout?
No room-darkening products can achieve total darkness, even those labeled as "blackout" treatments. However, we can get your room as close to complete darkness as possible with our state-of-the-art room darkening products & systems. We can also layer products (for example, room-darkening shades paired with room darkening draperies) for unparalleled room-darkening performance.
What is LightLock™?
The LightLock™ system from Hunter Douglas is the only one of its kind to provide such powerful room-darkening effects. It uses U-shaped side channels that blend seamlessly into the window frame and absorbs & deflecting incoming light from all angles.
The LightLock™ system is available on several Hunter Douglas products including cellular shades and Silhouette® sheer shades.
What is the Duolite® system?
The Duolite® system allows you to enjoy room-darkening and light-filtering capabilities with one treatment. It features two shades on a single roller—a sheer or light-filtering front shade and an opaque or room-darkening back shade.
If you want complete control over your light and privacy, consider the Duolite® system.

Do you have room-darkening treatments that can be used on doors?
Yes. We have many different room-darkening treatments that can be applied to doors.
I have an angled or round window. How can I block the light from it?
We have many different room-darkening options for uniquely-shaped windows including arched, angled, and round, windows. Our treatments are completely custom and can be fit to the unique shape and size of your window. Your Drapery Street designer will help you decide which product will give you the style and the room-darkening capabilities you want.
Can room-darkening treatments be motorized?
Yes! Our room-darkening treatments can be motorized to open with the touch of a button or the sound of your voice.
We can integrate your room-darkening treatments with your home automation system. Compatible systems include Google Assistant, Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Crestron®, Logitech®, Lutron, Control4®, Elan®, IFTTT, URC®, RTI, and Savant®.
Visit one of our showrooms to experience motorized window treatments in action. Our interactive, full-size displays allow you to operate many types of treatments, from shades to shutters, using PowerView motorization.
Do your room-darkening shades have top-down/bottom-up operation?

Hardwired shades offer the cleanest, most seamless experience for automation. Don’t miss your one chance to pre-wire! Once the drywall is up, that window is closed (unless you want to cut into fresh walls… not recommended!). Even if you’re not ready for automated shades now, pre-wiring gives you the option later.
Start early, avoid regrets!

Bay window blues? Not in this bedroom! 💙
Soft Roman shades in a textured neutral tone provide contrast against the blue walls, but the coordinating trim ties the whole look together.

Just kidding… we’d never be able to keep our mouths shut on this topic! 😬
So, why do we dislike grommets so much?
1️⃣ They’ll never give you a high-end look. When stacked, they look skimpy. When closed, they look like bedsheets in the window. Even when professionally dressed, the moment you use them, they lose their shape.
2️⃣ They’re not designed to function well. Opening and closing them is a pain, and you shouldn’t have to sacrifice functionality for style.
3️⃣ They’re expensive to manufacture in the U.S., and overseas options often come with quality and ethical concerns.
Ripplefold draperies are a great alternative to grommet curtains. They provide a similar look but actually stay looking nice while functioning smoothly.
We know this is a hot take! 🔥 Do you agree or disagree?

Moody, refined, and made for great conversation 🥃
You can always tell when window treatments are an afterthought… and when they’re not. The draperies in this cocktail lounge blend so naturally into the space that it’s clear they were a part of the design vision from the start.
