Blackout outside mount Roman shades blend softness, precision, and practicality. The shade’s fabric folds create depth and movement, while the blackout lining provides complete control over light and privacy.

Because they’re mounted above the frame, the shade extends beyond the opening, covering gaps and preventing light leaks from the edges. This installation style gives a polished look that suits both modern and classic interiors.

Why Choose Outside Mount for Blackout Shades
Outside mount Roman shades maximize coverage. They’re ideal for rooms that require complete darkness, such as bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms. Mounting them above the frame also adds height to the window visually, creating an elegant, tall appearance.

Many Los Angeles clients choose this style for comfort and design balance. The clean silhouette hides the hardware and blends seamlessly with decorative moldings or painted walls.

Fabric and Style Options
Roman shades come in multiple fold styles — flat for a tailored appearance or hobbled for a softer, layered texture. Heavier fabrics enhance the blackout effect, while lighter ones paired with liners maintain softness.

For spaces where full darkness is required, Blackout Inside Mount Roman Shades or Europleat Blackout Drapes can also be considered, depending on how much coverage or structure you prefer.

Color and Texture Choices
Neutral tones keep the look timeless, while deeper hues add intimacy. Linen, velvet, or cotton blends all create different moods. Each shade is measured and hand-sewn for precision.

Function and Convenience
Motorized operation makes daily use easy. Shades can be controlled with remotes or linked to smart home systems. Cordless options ensure safety for families with children or pets.

Energy and Sound Benefits
The blackout lining adds insulation, helping regulate temperature and reduce outside noise — a valuable feature in busy Los Angeles neighborhoods.

Maintenance
Dust occasionally or use a vacuum on low suction. For deep cleaning, professional care is best to maintain shape and lining performance.
