FAQ

Will it really get my room dark?

Most “blackout” curtains don’t fail in the fabric. They fail at the edges, where light pours around the top and sides. This sheet covers the whole window and fastens to the frame on every side, so there’s no gap for daylight to get around. [ADD YOUR SUPPLIER'S TESTED LIGHT-BLOCKING FIGURE HERE]

How is this different from the blackout curtains I already have?

Curtains hang in front of the window, so light spills out around them. This sheet attaches to the window frame itself, top, sides and bottom. Same dark fabric, no edges.

What's in the box?

One blackout sheet, black and white hook-and-loop dots, hook-and-loop strips, a tape measure, a marker, a cutter and a storage bag.

Will it stay up?

The adhesive hook-and-loop dots and strips stick to the frame once. After that, the sheet hooks on and off without re-sticking anything. For the best grip, wipe the frame clean and let it dry before you stick the dots on.

Will it leave residue on my frame?

The adhesive dots and strips stay on the frame while you use the sheet. Test one dot on a hidden spot first. [ADD SUPPLIER REMOVAL GUIDANCE FOR PAINTED AND VINYL FRAMES]

Which size do I need? What if I measure wrong?

Measure the inside of the window frame and pick the next length up. Every sheet is 59 in wide and trims to fit with the included cutter. A sheet that’s too big is an easy fix. One that’s too small isn’t, so size up if you’re unsure.

  • Small: 59 × 39 in. Bathroom, basement and door windows.
  • Standard: 59 × 79 in. Most bedroom windows.
  • Tall: 59 × 118 in. Tall windows and sliding doors.
  • Extra long: 59 × 157 in. Wide windows, or two side by side.

Can I take it to my next place?

Yes. Unhook the sheet, fold it into its bag, and hang it at the next window. You’ll want fresh adhesive dots for each new frame. [CONFIRM WHETHER SPARE DOTS ARE INCLUDED OR SOLD SEPARATELY]

Why not just use foil or a sleep mask?

Foil works. You just shouldn’t have to live with it, or tape it back up every week. Masks work for some people too, but plenty of night shifters can’t stand something on their face. This gives you a dark room with nothing to wear.

Will it make my room hotter?

The back of the sheet is white and faces the window. We haven’t tested room temperature, so we don’t make cooling claims. [ADD SUPPLIER THERMAL DATA IF AVAILABLE]

Does it smell?

[CONFIRM MATERIAL AND ODOR DETAILS WITH SUPPLIER] If it arrives with a packaging smell, shake it out and let it air for a few hours before hanging it.
