LightLock

Complete Room Darkening Shades

The Duette® LightLock™ system features an innovative design that blocks incoming light from all angles, creating near-total darkness without the need for curtains. It also prevents visibility from either side, offering exceptional privacy and light control.

The Best in Room Darkening

The Duette® LightLock™ system uses innovative U-shaped side channels engineered to block incoming light with remarkable precision. Each channel features a black ridged interior that traps and absorbs light from every angle, regardless of its intensity. This makes LightLock™ an ideal blackout solution for bedrooms, nurseries, media rooms, or any space where complete darkness is desired. Along with superior performance in light control and privacy, it provides a clean, integrated look that enhances any room.

The level of light control you need can vary significantly from room to room. Understanding the different opacities available for window treatments, such as sheer, light-filtering, and room-darkening options, can help you make informed decisions for every space in your home.

  • Sheer: These treatments offer minimal light blockage, diffusing harsh sunlight and providing a soft, ambient glow while maintaining a sense of openness. They are ideal for living areas where natural light is desired.
  • Light-Filtering: These options allow a significant amount of light to pass through, reducing glare and offering moderate privacy. They are a good choice for kitchens or dining rooms.
  • Room Darkening: As exemplified by the LightLock blackout system, these treatments block a substantial amount of light, creating a darker environment. They are perfect for bedrooms and media rooms.
  • Blackout: Offering the highest level of light blockage, blackout treatments are designed to create near-total darkness, essential for sleep or for sensitive media viewing.
