Helioscreen Blackout Blinds

Effortlessly control light, heat and privacy

Description

Helioscreen’s blackout blinds are ideal for bedrooms, home theatres, boardrooms, nurseries or any other room where light block and complete privacy are important. With specially designed headboxes, compressible brush seals and aluminium side channels, our blackout blinds take your space from light-filled to near complete darkness in seconds.  

As well as blocking light, blackout blinds are great for thermal control. They keep your home cool and comfortable in summer and retain the warmth during winter, drastically improving the energy efficiency of your home. By blocking the sun’s UV rays, blackout blinds also prevent your valuable furniture, flooring and artworks from fading.  

Combining craftsman-like attention to detail and the highest quality fabrics, Helioscreen’s blackout blinds deliver on both style and functionality. They operate either manually via a sleek, stainless-steel chain or automatically via a remote control, wall switch or smartphone app. 

As a quality guarantee, all our blackout blinds come with a 5 year warranty on the motor, fabric and hardware, so you know they’re made to last.

    How long do blackout blinds typically last?

    The lifespan of total blackout blinds will vary depending on their quality, materials and how well you care for them.   

    However, generally speaking, most blackout blinds will last for 5-7 years before they begin to deteriorate. 

    To guarantee your blinds remain beautiful and functional for years to come, ensure you’re purchasing quality blackout blinds from a reputable supplier like Helioscreen. All our indoor blinds come with a 5 year warranty on the motor, fabric and hardware, so you know they’re made to last.

    Are blackout blinds waterproof?

    Generally speaking, no blackout blinds are not waterproof 

    Blackout blinds are primarily designed for use in bedrooms, TV rooms and offices as opposed to bathrooms and kitchens. They can handle small amounts of water or humidity but are not designed for prolonged exposure in a damp or wet environment.

    Are blackout blinds child safe?

    If they are motorised, then yes, blackout blinds are child safe.   

    Without the need for a hanging cord pull, motorised blackout blinds eliminate the risk of kids (or pets) getting caught or tangled in them. This makes them a great option for young families. 

    As required by law, all Helioscreen chain operated blinds also come fitted with chain safety devices to ensure the blinds are safe.

    Motorised vs chain operated blackout blinds

    Chain operated blackout blinds offer a simple and elegant sun control solution for your home. They’re easy to operate and feature compact and discreet end brackets that won’t take away from the aesthetic appeal of your space.    

    For those after instant light, heat and privacy at the touch of a button, you can’t go wrong with motorised blackout roller blinds. Operational via a remote control, wall switch or full building integration, motorised blackout blinds are the ideal effortless shading solution.
