Elevate Your Space with Cassette Blackout Blinds
Elevate Your Space with Cassette Blackout Blinds
Welcome to Direct Fabrics, where we take immense pride in presenting our exceptional cassette blackout blinds systems. These blinds are an embodiment of sophistication, nestled within a beautifully framed box. Whether you opt to install them inside or outside your window recess, the outcome is always impressive. The frame encompasses the entire blind, complete with side channels that create a seamless look, culminating in a sleek bottom bar. The result? A room-darkening solution that offers a polished finish, although it doesn't provide total blackout. Let's delve deeper into the details.
Battling the Light Leaks
One of the persistent challenges in achieving a complete blackout in a room is the pesky light leakage around curtains or blinds. Here at Direct Fabrics, we've mastered the art of mitigating this issue. In our demonstration, you'll notice a bold black fabric adorning one of our office walls. While it's not total blackout just yet, we've added a lining behind the curtain to demonstrate that even with eyelets, we can come incredibly close to complete darkness.
The magic ingredient here is our Utopia blackout fabric, which features a white backing. This fabric has undergone rigorous testing, showcasing its ability to reflect 85% of heat out of the room. Additionally, our cassette system plays a pivotal role in creating an air pocket behind the blind, contributing to its insulation properties.
Unveiling the Cassette System
Now, let's take a closer look at our sophisticated cassette system. The chain on our demonstration unit is a bit shorter than the standard, as it's merely a mockup. Under normal circumstances, the chain's mounting height is set at 210 cm, while child safety requirements mandate positioning the chain 150 cm above the floor. To elevate room darkening further, we've meticulously applied Mastick to seal around the blind. This extra effort ensures optimal performance, as you'll soon witness.

A Seamless Descent
The operation of our cassette blackout blinds is remarkably smooth and efficient. As we draw the blind down, your attention will be drawn to the bottom bar, equipped with brushes designed to offer additional light protection. As the blind descends, you'll observe minimal light seepage around the edges.
We decided to put our hand right in front of the blind, and guess what? It's challenging to discern any light seeping through. The brightness of our fire escape lights and the faint light seepage around the doors barely registers. With these blinds in place, you can expect an environment in which you can sleep soundly. We estimate the blackout level to be around 98-99%, making these blinds ideal for cinema rooms, baby nurseries, or any space where you desire a beautifully dark atmosphere.
