See what makes it special →

Blackout shades are a must-have when too much unwanted light is coming into your room. Blocking that light helps provide restful sleep, better visibility of screens and other devices, and a better overall feel for rooms that are too bright. But why not block that outside light in style? Enter our Motorized Deluxe Blackout Shades with a built-in motor with rechargeable battery for the easiest and most convenient way to raise and lower your shades. With the touch of a button on the 6-channel remote control, you can operate a single shade or groups of shades all at once. Installing and setting up your motorized shades is easy.  You'll be enjoying darkened rooms and effortless control in no time with Blindster's Motorized Deluxe Blackout Roller Shades!

Get to know this shade:

  • Motorized lift features long-lasting rechargeable battery and easy remote-control operation
  • At least one remote control must be ordered to operate shades
  • Polyester fabric has a subtle woven texture for great looks, yet is durable and easy to clean
  • White acrylic backing blocks all light from passing through the shade and provides neutral streetside appearance
  • Complete your look with optional cassette valance that hides the fabric roll and blocks additional light at the top of the shade

Why you'll love this shade:

  • Sleek motorized operation raises and lowers shades effortlessly via remote control
  • Rechargeable battery lasts for months between charges with typical daily use
  • Too-bright rooms are a thing of the past with 100% blackout fabric that works – and looks – great!
  • Odor free, non-toxic fabric provides maximum light blocking and privacy
  • Plain tailored hem provides a crisp clean look
  • Meets all CPSC requirements for child safety

Key considerations:

  • The fabric on the shade will always be about 1 1/2" narrower than the width you order due to the operating mechanisms and brackets at the top of the shade
  • Fabric blocks any light from coming through the shade, you may still have indirect light coming through the window and around the shade
  • A single remote control can operate multiple shades – you can have one remote for all the shades in your home, or use a different remote for each room
  • Shades over 94" wide AND 82" tall require a seam in the fabric – see the Specifications section for more details

How to Measure

How to Measure: Inside Mount

3 min read

Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window!  Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth:

  • Measure inside the window opening from the back of the window to the front of the opening where the shade would mount. To mount the brackets, the depth at the top of the window must be at least 2 1/4" for shades without a cassette valance and 2 5/8" for shades with a cassette valance. To have a flush mount (meaning the shade is fully recessed in the window opening) the depth must be at least 3" without a cassette valance and 3 ¼" for shades with a cassette valance. If your depth is not sufficient for mounting the brackets, please see our outside mount instructions or consider a different product.

How to Measure:

Let's start with the Width:

  • Measure inside of the window opening/frame from left to right at the top of the opening to the nearest 1/8". If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8".  That is your ordering width.

Now, let's do the Height:

  • Measure the inside of the window opening/frame from the top of the opening to the bottom of the opening/sill to the nearest 1/8" in three places: on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. That is your ordering height.

Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/8" to the width of the top of the shade to accommodate the installation brackets. 

The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 1" – 1 1/2" narrower than the ordered width (up to 3/4" gap on each side between the window opening and the edge of the fabric). When maximum light blocking is needed, consider an outside mount or an alternate product. 

No deductions will be made to the ordered height. 

How to Measure: Outside Mount

3 min read

Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your shade. You will need at least 1 1/2" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets for shades without a cassette valance, or at least 2 7/8" for shades with a cassette valance. Follow the directions below for where you'd like to install your shade.

If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product.

Your ordered width will be the "tip to tip" measurement, which is the widest part of the top of the shade including the brackets and cassette valance (if applicable). The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 1" – 1 1/2" narrower than the ordered width (up to 3/4" on each side. If you wish to have the fabric cover a specific width, we recommend ordering slightly wider – just ensure that you have enough horizontal space to mount the shade.

Width:

  • Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" on each side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance.
  • Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including your desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width.

Height: 

  • Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window.
  • Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height.

Width:

  • Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" on either side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance.
  • Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including any desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width.

Height: 

  • Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window.
  • Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above, or to the bottom edge of the trim if you prefer; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height.

Note: The shade fabric may rub against the trim when operating. If your trim is more than 1/2" thick, consider adding shims (not included) under the brackets for additional clearance. If your trim is 3/4" or thicker, we recommend ordering the shade with the reverse roll option.

Width:

  • We don't normally recommend mounting roller shades directly on the trim unless your window configuration doesn't allow for other placements. Your ordered width will be the bracket to bracket measurement which cannot exceed the width of your trim. However, the fabric portion of roller shades is always narrower than the ordered width, and will not extend to the edges of the trim.
  • Confirm that the height of your trim is at least the minimum height required for installing the mounting brackets. At the top of your window, use a steel measuring tape and measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim.  That is your ordering width. 
  • Note that the fabric portion of the shade will be narrower than your ordered width.

Height: 

  • Measure from the top of your trim to the bottom of your trim or to the top of the windowsill if you have a protruding sill. That is your ordering height.

Width:

  • Using a metal tape measure, measure left to right from the outside edge of the trim piece that goes around the glass to the other outside edge. That is your ordering width. However, if you have space, it is best to order the shade about 2-3" wider for better light control.

Height:

  • Consider how far above the window trim piece you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Measure down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below the window trim piece as you used above. That is your ordering height.

Note: This product is not available with hold down brackets (for attaching the bottom of the shade to the door to prevent swaying). We recommend considering a different product if installing on a door where the bottom of the shade is likely to swing back and forth.

Light Filtering and Blackout Fabric Options

When choosing roller shades, the material makes a big difference in comfort and privacy. Light-filtering fabric helps soften direct sunlight while keeping the room bright with natural light, which can be ideal for spaces where you want daytime visibility without glare. For bedrooms and media spaces, blackout fabric is designed for room darkening and more consistent coverage, helping reduce solar heat gain during peak daylight hours. If you are trying to limit harmful UV rays and manage the morning sun, blackout options like Motorized Deluxe Blackout Fabric Roller Shades can support a calmer feel while still matching a clean, modern design.

Motorized Deluxe Blackout Fabric Roller Shades for Everyday Comfort

Motorized Deluxe Blackout Fabric Roller Shades are a practical upgrade for busy routines because they reduce daily effort and keep your window shade looking neat. Motorized roller shades can be especially helpful in other rooms where you open and close coverings frequently or there are multiple window shades, and they also work well for hard-to-reach windows where manual lifting is inconvenient. If you are considering motorized blinds, the big benefit is how consistent the movement feels from day to day, helping the shades fit perfectly within your window dimensions and look intentional across the window frame. This level of comfort can feel life-changing in a home with multiple windows.

Blackout Roller Shades for Darker Rooms

Motorized Deluxe Blackout Fabric Roller Shades are built for total light control in spaces where brightness is disruptive. They are a strong option for the master bedroom, a kids room, and any area where you want darkness for sleep or improved screen viewing. They also help create complete privacy while maintaining a minimalist design that blends into the room. If you need thermal insulation benefits, blackout roller shades can support comfort by reducing heat transfer and drafts, depending on the mount and surrounding wall conditions.

Powered by a Motor for Smooth Control

An internal motor with handheld remote control delivers smooth and quiet operation, giving you a more refined experience than manual lifting. Featuring simple reliability, a motorized roller blind setup works perfectly as a stand-alone solution, able to operate individual shades or multiple shades at once, giving you consistent movement without constant adjustment. The goal is an easy routine that keeps the final product predictable and comfortable.

Custom Built Shades With Easy Installation

Motorized deluxe blackout fabric roller shades are custom-built to your measurements, so the finished look feels clean and precise. Following the installation instructions helps ensure correct bracket placement, proper alignment, and a stable mount, whether you choose inside mount or outside mount based on your space. If you add a cassette, the fabric-wrapped finish can look especially polished, and selecting cassette colors that match your décor helps the shade complement your trim and hardware. With an emphasis on cordless design and pet-safe operation, this approach can enhance safety while keeping a modern, environmentally friendly feel that still looks premium.

FAQ

How do I choose the perfect shade from your shade company?

Finding the perfect shade starts with how you want the window shade to perform in your space. Our shades focus on fit, function, and finish, so you can balance natural light during the day with reliable room darkening at night. Motorized Deluxe Blackout Fabric Roller Shades are ideal when comfort and consistency matter, and selecting the right size and fabric ensures the final result works the way you expect.
