Why DarkOut

Built for the people who actually need the dark

Most 'blackout' blinds let light leak around the edges. We engineered ours from the frame in — so when you close the blind, the room is genuinely, completely dark.

True 100% blackout

Sealed side channels and a triple-layer fabric block every photon — even in full midday sun. Verified by independent light-meter tests.

Made for your window

Every blind is cut to your exact measurements. Standard, narrow, awkward — if it's a window, we'll make it fit perfectly.

Installs in 10 minutes

Tension-mount design — no tools, no drilling, no holes in your wall. If you can hang a picture frame, you can install this.

Common questions

Before you buy

How dark is '100% blackout'?

Genuinely pitch-black. We use a triple-layer woven fabric plus sealed side channels so light can't sneak around the edges. Independent light-meter tests measure 0.0 lux at midday with a south-facing window.

Will it fit my window?

Almost certainly. We cut every blind to your exact measurements (we'll walk you through how to measure — it takes 60 seconds). Fits any window up to 96" wide and 108" tall.

Do I need to drill into my walls?

Nope. Our tension-mount system holds inside your window frame using two adjustable rods. No tools, no drilling, no patching holes when you move out. Renter-friendly.

What if I don't like it?

Send it back within 30 nights for a full refund. No restocking fee, no questions. We'd rather you sleep well — even if it's not with us.
