What makes Lightproof different from other blackout blinds?

Lightproof features a unique patented track system that eliminates gaps between the blinds and the window frame to ensure total darkness. The dual-layered honeycomb fabric combines non-woven polyester with a reflective thermal barrier to block light, insulate against heat, and reduce noise.

What are the measurements of the frame?

The width of the frame is 1.3 inches, and the depth of the frame is 1.18 inches.

Does the snow quartz color completely block out light?

Yes, our snow quartz Lightproof Blinds provide complete light blockage, just like the Midnight Black Lightproof Blinds do.

Is Lightproof noise cancelling?

Lightproof makes the outdoors quiet but not silent. The subtle yet noticeable decrease in noise is just another reason to shop Lightproof.

Is Lightproof suitable for my window type?

Lightproof is designed to fit most standard window types, but there are a few considerations.

 

Guard won't fit windows that are not rectangular or square. Additionally, the blinds require at least 1.3 inches of unobstructed recess space for proper installation. If your window doesn't meet these criteria, Guard may not be suitable for you.
