Block out the light and sleep better

With block-out blinds or curtains, you can make sure your much-needed sleep isn’t disturbed by moonlight or street lights, and that you can enjoy a lie-in without the sun waking you up.

Electric block-out blinds

With FYRTUR block-out roller blinds, you can set a timer to let you enjoy a good night’s sleep in the dark and then be woken up by daylight as the blinds go up in the morning. You can control them with a remote control, the IKEA Home smart app which includes a timer, and Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit or Google Home.

Curtains that keep out light (or most of it)

As well as block-out curtains, you can also get room-darkening curtains, like these ones, that keep most of the light out. They often come in brighter colours than block-out curtains, so you get more options to suit your style.

Block-out in your living room

You can also use block-out blinds to avoid glare on your TV screen on bright days or if you fancy watching a horror film in total darkness to increase your fear level! Add curtains for more softness and beauty.

Plan your own curtain track rail projects

Are you thinking of putting up curtains using track rails, maybe lots of cosy layers in a window or a curtain that divides up a room into different areas? If so, why not design everything first on the VIDGA planner?
