Best Window Treatments for Home Theaters

Who doesn’t love a good home theater, whether it’s a room of its own or part of a living or family room? It lets us catch up on the latest movies that dropped on our favorite streaming services, allows us to relax with old favorites, and gives us a space to entertain when family and friends visit. There are many perks to home theaters. Of course, not all that glitters is gold. If your media room has windows, you might find that artificial and natural lighting from the sun, moon, car headlights, and street lamps cause some serious glare on your screens. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas has some of the best window treatments for home theaters available on the window treatment market. Read on to find your perfect shade!

Option 1: Room-Darkening Shades

As mentioned, one of the main frustrations of home theaters is unwanted light and glare. That is why the best window treatments for home theaters have room-darkening capabilities. While nearly every window treatment out there provides shade, not all of them offer powerful fabrics that block a majority of light from creeping in. Room-darkening shades are specifically designed to minimize light gaps. Depending on your fabric, material type, and color choice, you can enjoy varying degrees of room darkening for your home theater.

Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades with LightLock™ are an excellent option to consider for your home theater. These energy efficient shades come in a wide variety of opaque, light-blocking colors to prevent pesky light from seeping in and ruining your movie marathon. The available LightLock™ feature is also an option as its unique U-shaped side channels overlap the front and back of the shades to nearly eliminate all traces of light. Plus, our selection of honeycomb cellular shades offer discrete pockets that trap airflow at the window and provide great insulation from the outdoor elements.

Blackout Shades

The best window treatments for home theaters that need a little extra something-something when it comes to light control will enjoy the power of blackout shades. That is why we cannot recommend window treatments that feature the Hunter Douglas Duolite® option. One of the fabric panels in this dual-fabric construction is made from a light filtering fabric while the other fabric blocks light completely. Both can be operated independently for total light control.

This option is available on Hunter Douglas Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, Duette® Honeycomb Shades, and Silhouette® Window Shadings. We are happy to discuss each window treatment in more depth if this option catches your eye when it comes to giving your home theater the upgrade it deserves.
