I have a home theater. What is the best window covering for “blackout”?
Honeycomb shade with blackout material
There are a few options for removing or blocking out all light to a room. Shutters (Wood or Vinyl) block out about 85% of light. Roller shades or Honeycomb shades that cover the window casing completely also come in blackout fabrics and can block about 95% of natural light. This would be our choice for a home theater room. Most vertical slat style blinds or venetians will not block enough light to be effective. The slats do not tend to shut tightly enough and the holes for the strings will also let light leak into the room.
