UBlockout shades are unique as they are they are DIY friendly shades that can deliver 100% blackout. Our patented design and superior technology completely eliminates light leakage, unlike other standard shade solutions on the market.
Crafted with lightweight aluminum frames and premium blackout fabric, UBlockout shades provide a sleek, contemporary aesthetic and guaranteed darkness. Our shades come in a range of options for both the frame and fabric.
We offer the choice between a classic white frame or bold black frame, suitable for both inside and outside mounts. While our premium fabrics come in 4 shades - Winter White, Ivory Cream, Silver Gray and Slate Charcoal. Additionally, our shades are designed to be interchangeable, allowing you to refresh or update them even after installation.
UBlockout shades can be mounted on various surfaces including timber, drywall, metal and masonry.
Absolutely! If the depth of your recess is sufficient for smooth operation, you can install our shades alongside curtains. For optimal functionality and to prevent any obstructions, we suggest opting for an inside mount.
Our shades are designed for easy measurement and installation, allowing you to do it all from the comfort of your home without the need for professional assistance. Along with your order, we provide detailed step-by-step guides tailored to your specific requirements, ensuring a seamless process.
Should you encounter any challenges during installation or require any clarifications, our dedicated support hub and team is always at your disposal, ready to assist you.
The smart shade functionality can help you achieve better sleep in several ways:
Customization: With remote-controlled operation, you can precisely adjust the light and warmth entering your room for the perfect sleep environment tailored to your preferences.
Consistency: Using the smartphone app, set automated schedules for your UBlockout shades to lower or raise, ensuring your room remains dark during sleep hours, even when the sun is out.
Energy regulation: By controlling our exposure to light, especially in the morning, UBlockout smart shades can help regulate your circadian rhythm, ensuring your sleep-wake cycles align more naturally with light-dark cycles.
The UBlockout shade works with most window types.
We recommend carefully considering the best option for you and your space.
