Blackout Blinds in Singapore
Blackout blinds are designed to reduce external light and improve privacy, making them a practical choice for bedrooms, nurseries, and media rooms. By using light-blocking fabrics and a streamlined roller mechanism, they help create a more restful environment while also assisting in temperature regulation by limiting heat gain through windows.
At Aratamete, our blackout roller blinds are custom-made to fit your space precisely. We offer a carefully curated range of high-quality fabrics in a selection of colours and finishes to suit different interior styles. Each blind is designed with performance, durability, and ease of use in mind — available in both manual and motorised systems. From consultation to installation, our process is built around customisation and attention to detail, ensuring each solution meets the functional and aesthetic needs of your home.

Are Blackout Blinds Worth It?
Blackout blinds offer more than just a darkened room — they support better living through thoughtful design. Here are a few key benefits that make them a worthwhile addition to your space:
Improved Sleep Quality
By blocking out external light sources, blackout blinds help create a sleep-conducive environment — especially important for children, shift workers, or anyone sensitive to light. When custom-fitted with high-opacity fabrics, they minimise light leaks for more restful sleep.
Greater Privacy and Comfort
These blinds provide excellent privacy by preventing shadows and outlines from being visible at night. They're ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms, or street-facing spaces — offering peace of mind without sacrificing style.
UV and Heat Protection
Well-chosen blackout fabrics help shield interiors from harsh sunlight, reducing fading on furniture and artworks. Certain materials also offer thermal insulation, helping to keep your space cooler during the day.
Energy Efficiency
Controlling sunlight isn’t just about ambience — it helps regulate indoor temperatures, reducing reliance on artificial cooling. Customising fabric thickness, colour, and fit can significantly improve the insulating effect of your blinds, making your home more sustainable and comfortable year-round.

Frequently Asked Questions About Blackout Roller Blinds in Singapore
What kind of blinds should I get in Singapore?
If you're looking to block out sunlight, improve sleep quality, or reduce room temperature during the day, blackout roller blinds are an ideal choice. Their clean, modern profile makes them especially suitable for Singapore’s high-rise homes, where privacy and light control are key. With custom sizing and fabric options, blackout blinds offer both form and function — particularly for bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms.
What is the difference between blackout curtains and blackout blinds?
Both are designed to block light, but blackout blinds are typically mounted closer to the window frame, offering a sleeker finish and improved light control in compact spaces. Curtains, on the other hand, add softness and volume to a room. If you're working with limited space or prefer a minimalist look, blackout roller blinds are a practical and elegant solution.
How much should I budget for new blackout blinds?
The cost of blackout blinds varies depending on the fabric, size, mechanism (manual vs. motorised), and level of customisation. At Aratamete, we offer tailored pricing following a consultation and site measurement to ensure accurate recommendations based on your home and needs.
How do I know what size of blackout blinds to buy?
To ensure a proper fit and optimal coverage, we recommend having your windows professionally measured. Our team provides on-site measurements as part of our end-to-end service, so you can be assured of a clean finish and full light-blocking performance.
Does a blackout blind need to be black?
Not at all. Blackout blinds refer to their light-blocking function, not their colour. We offer a wide palette of blackout fabrics — including whites, greys, beiges, and deeper tones — so you can enjoy full coverage without compromising your interior style.
What are some tips for maintaining blackout blinds?
Dust your blinds regularly with a dry microfiber cloth or vacuum using a brush attachment. For spot cleaning, use a mild detergent and damp cloth, taking care not to oversaturate the fabric. Avoid harsh chemicals or vigorous scrubbing to preserve the blackout coating and fabric integrity.
