Product Questions

What are DarkOutBlinds made of?

Each blind is crafted with a precision-cut aluminum frame and premium blackout fabric that blocks 100% of light—no glow, no leaks, just total darkness.

Do they really make the room pitch black?

Yes! When measured and installed correctly, our blinds eliminate all outside light—perfect for light-sensitive sleepers, babies, and night-shift workers.

Can I install these in a rental apartment?

Absolutely. Our no-drill, damage-free design is easy to install, remove, and reposition — ideal for renters and temporary setups.

Can I open and close the blinds easily?

Yes! Once installed, the blinds glide smoothly so you can darken or brighten your room in seconds.

Frequently asked questions

Measurement Questions

How do I measure my window correctly?

Measure the width from the left edge to the right edge, and the height from the top to the bottom of your window frame. Accurate measurements are essential to achieve a full blackout fit.

Can I use rough estimates or standard window sizes?

No—we highly recommend using precise measurements. Standard sizes won’t guarantee a perfect blackout seal, so take a few extra minutes to measure carefully.

What if my window shape is unusual?

No worries! Just send us a photo along with your measurements, and our team will help determine whether our blinds are a good fit for your space.

Where can I find help with measuring?

You’ll find a step-by-step visual guide on our Installation Page, showing you exactly how to measure for the perfect fit.
