The fresh pale grey of our Alaskan Husky Blackout Blind works perfectly in any setting, be it contemporary or traditional. The softness of the grey shade is extremely versatile and works in many colour schemes.
The high level blackout effect means you have complete control over the amount of natural light entering your room making it ideal for bedrooms or rooms with screens to prevent glare, but is also a great way of adding a little more privacy for ground level rooms.
Total Blackout is the brand name for our blinds that feature side channels, cassettes and brush strips designed to block as much light as possible from entering the room. Please note however, that depending on the levelness and consistency in shape of the individual window aperture, it is possible to still experience a small amount of light bleed at the top or bottom corners, on the sill or on the inside of the side channels so we are unable to guarantee absolute darkness.
How To Measure For A Total Blackout Cassette Blind: Our total blackout cassette blind is only suitable for fitting at the front of a window recess so that the cassette and side rails can overlap the recess slightly.
1. Using a steel tape, measure the width at the top, middle and bottom of the window noting all 3 sizes.
(We can make the blind to suit sizes between 40-190cm wide).2. Next measure the drop of the window at the left, middle and the right. Again note down all 3 measurements.
(We can make the blind to suit sizes between 30-160cm drop).3. Measure the depth of your window recess.
(This system requires at least 5cm depth to fit).4. Check for any obstructions that may restrict the usage of the blind. This may include trickle vents, top opening windows, skirting boards, or protruding window handles. As these blinds are designed to be flush all the way down the wall, windows with any skirting are not suitable for this type of blind.
How To Order A Total Blackout Cassette Blind: Once you have chosen your favourite fabric colour
1. In the width and drop boxes enter the smallest of your measurements for width and drop in order to generate a price.
2. Enter the exact measurements you took of the recess at the top, middle and bottom for the width and left, middle and right for the drop.
(This way if your window is not perfectly square we can help adjust the blind to accommodate this). Please note that the side channels are always manufactured to the same drop, based on the shortest measurement provided. To address variations in window measurements, these blinds are equipped with adjustable brackets. These brackets can be adjusted by up to 5mm to accommodate the discrepancy between the left and right side measurements, ensuring a snug fit without any gaps.
