Day & Night Blinds
Measured & fitted across Burscough, Ormskirk, Southport & Tarleton
Day and night blinds (also called vision or zebra blinds) are made of two layers of fabric with alternating sheer and solid stripes. Moving the blind slightly lines the stripes up to let light through or overlaps them for privacy, so you can adjust the light without raising the blind.

Privacy and daylight at the same time
With the sheer stripes lined up, you get soft daylight while still keeping the room private from the street. Overlap the solid stripes and the room is shaded and private. It’s like having a sheer and a blind in one.
How to use them through the day
In the morning, line up the sheer stripes for soft daylight while keeping the room private from the street. When the sun is strong, shift the blind slightly so the solid stripes cut the glare. In the evening, overlap the solid stripes for privacy, or raise the blind completely for a clear view.
It all happens with a small adjustment, so there’s no need to keep raising and lowering the blind.
A modern look for any room
Day and night blinds have a clean, contemporary look that suits living rooms, home offices and bay windows. They come in plain and textured fabrics, from crisp whites to warm neutrals and darker tones.
Because they’re made to measure, they fit neatly inside the recess or above the window, and work well on their own or alongside curtains.
Good to know
- Day and night blinds reduce light well but aren’t fully blackout. For bedrooms, pair them with curtains or choose a blackout roller.
- They’re not suited to steamy rooms or windows right next to a sink.
- They cost a little more than a standard roller blind because they’re made from two layers of fabric.

Day & Night Blinds: your questions answered
What’s the difference between day & night and triple shade blinds?
Both use sheer and solid fabric bands. Triple shade blinds have fabric vanes between the layers that tilt like a venetian, giving a softer, more three-dimensional look.
How much do day and night blinds cost?
They cost more than a standard roller blind because they’re made from two layers of fabric. The price depends on the size and fabric, and we give you an exact, itemised quote at your free home visit, with measuring and fitting included.
Are day and night blinds the same as vision or zebra blinds?
Yes. They’re all names for the same style of blind, with alternating sheer and solid stripes.
Are day and night blinds blackout?
Not fully. They cut light well, but for bedrooms we suggest pairing them with curtains or choosing a blackout roller blind.
Do day and night blinds give privacy at night?
Yes, when the solid stripes overlap. With the lights on inside and the sheer stripes lined up, people outside may see shapes, so close them to the solid position in the evening.
Are day and night blinds good for bedrooms?
They work well in bedrooms paired with curtains, or alongside a blackout blind. On their own, they cut light but won’t make the room fully dark.
Can day and night blinds go in a kitchen or bathroom?
We don’t recommend them for steamy rooms or right next to a sink, as the fabric isn’t waterproof. A faux-wood venetian or moisture-resistant roller blind is a better choice there.
Can day and night blinds go in a bay window?
Yes. We make one for each section of the bay, so you can adjust each window separately.
How do I clean day and night blinds?
Dust them regularly with a soft brush or a vacuum on a low setting. Don’t soak the fabric; spot-clean any marks gently.
Are day and night blinds safe for homes with children?
Yes. Blinds with cords or chains are supplied with child-safety devices to meet UK safety standards, and we fit them for you.
