Blind Screens
Measured & fitted across Burscough, Ormskirk, Southport & Tarleton
Blind screens are blackout blinds set in a sealed frame that fits around the window, so no light gets in around the edges. They’re the best option if you need a room completely dark: for a baby’s nursery, for shift work or for a home cinema.

Why standard blackout blinds still let light in
Even a blackout roller blind leaves a small gap at the sides and bottom, and on a bright morning that’s enough to wake a light sleeper. A blind screen runs in side channels and seals against a frame, so there are no gaps at all.
We also offer fly screen options that keep insects out while letting fresh air in, which is great for summer nights with the window open.
Who blind screens are for
Blind screens are the go-to choice for babies and young children who nap during the day or wake with early summer sunrises. They’re also popular with night-shift workers, light-sensitive sleepers and anyone creating a proper home cinema.
If you’ve tried blackout blinds and still find light creeping round the edges, a blind screen is usually the answer.
Pair them with curtains
A blind screen does the hard work at the window, so you can still have curtains or a Roman blind in front for warmth and style. Many customers do exactly that in nurseries and main bedrooms.
Good to know
- Blind screens are a more technical fit than a standard blind, so we always measure them ourselves.
- Because the blind runs in sealed side channels, it’s a sturdier, more technical product than a standard blind, and costs more.
- They need a little space around the window for the frame. We check this when we measure.

Blind Screens: your questions answered
Do blind screens make a room completely dark?
Yes. The frame and side channels seal the window, so no light comes in around the edges.
How much do blind screens cost?
Blind screens cost more than a standard blackout roller blind because of the sealed frame and side channels. The price depends on the size of the window, and we give you an exact, itemised quote at your free home visit, with measuring and fitting included.
What’s the difference between a blind screen and a blackout roller blind?
A blackout roller blind stops light coming through the fabric, but leaves small gaps at the sides and bottom. A blind screen runs in side channels and seals against a frame, so no light gets in around the edges.
Are blind screens good for a nursery?
Yes. They’re one of the most popular choices for nurseries and children’s rooms because they keep the room dark for daytime naps and light summer mornings.
Are blind screens good for shift workers and home cinemas?
Yes. If you need to sleep during the day or want a properly dark room for watching films, a blind screen is the best option.
How are blind screens fitted?
The blind runs in side channels inside a frame that’s fitted around the window, so the edges are sealed. It’s a more technical fit than a standard blind, so we always measure and fit them ourselves.
Can I fit a blind screen myself?
We don’t recommend it. The frame has to be measured and fitted precisely to seal the window, which is why our team handles every blind screen.
Do you do fly screens as well?
Yes. We offer fixed and removable fly screens that keep insects out while letting fresh air in. Ask us about them at your visit.
Can I have curtains as well as a blind screen?
Yes. The blind screen does the blackout job at the window, and curtains in front add warmth and style.
Will a blind screen fit my window?
They suit most windows. We’ll check yours when we measure and let you know the best option.
