It feels like a rarity nowadays to find a business that has an amazing product, great price, and perfect customer service . Alpine has it all and I've already recommended them to my friends.

Blackout Shades inCalgary.
A blackout shade is simply our roller or zebra shade, built in a dense room-darkening fabric. Pick your style and we'll build it to block up to 98% of the light — add side tracks for maximum blackout, day or night.

Why Blackout
Real dark, madeto measure.
A blackout shade isn't a different product — it's the roller or zebra shade you already love, built in a denser weave that shuts the light out. We measure to the millimetre and offer side tracks so the glow can't slip past the edges — for maximum blackout.
Up to 98% of the light, gone
A dense room-darkening fabric blocks the vast majority of incoming light. Add side tracks and the room reads as night, even at noon.
Built for real sleep
Made for bedrooms, nurseries, shift workers, and media rooms — anywhere morning light shouldn't get to decide when your day starts.
Your style, darkened
Choose the clean flat panel of a roller shade or the layered look of a zebra shade. Blackout is a fabric choice, not a compromise on design.
Side tracks for maximum blackout
Slim tracks along each edge of the window seal the gaps where light sneaks past the fabric. It's the finishing touch that takes a dark room to a truly black one.

Side Tracks for Total Blackout
Slim tracks along each edge seal the light the fabric can't — for maximum blackout, day or night.
Seal the edges light sneaks past
Even a 98% room-darkening fabric leaves a thin glow along the sides of the window. Slim side tracks run down each edge and trap that light before it reaches the room — the finishing touch that takes a dark room to a truly black one.
Maximum blackout, day or night
With the fabric sealed edge to edge, the room reads as night even at noon. It's the setup shift workers, home theatres, and nurseries reach for when 'dark enough' isn't dark enough.
Built into the shade you already chose
Side tracks fit our roller and zebra shades alike, custom-measured to your window. You keep the style and operation you picked — cordless, chain, or motorized — with the light sealed out.

I was lucky to have found you guys. My blinds were installed within 5 days even though I had some modifications before installation. You still went above and beyond to make sure you gave the best service.

Frequently asked questions
Room-darkening fabric blocks up to about 98% of light on its own. For maximum blackout we offer side tracks along the window edges to seal the small gaps where light sneaks in, taking the room to near-total darkness.
Both. 'Blackout' describes the fabric, not the style. We build blackout shades on our roller shade or zebra shade hardware, so you keep the look you want with the darkness you need.
With a room-darkening fabric plus side tracks, most rooms feel completely dark. A little light can still enter around fittings, but the difference is dramatic — more than enough for daytime sleep and home theatres.
Yes. Every blackout shade is available cordless or motorized and meets Canadian child-safety standards. We recommend cord-free operation for any shade near a crib or a child's bed.
Bedrooms, nurseries, basements, and media rooms are the most popular. Anywhere you want to control the light on your schedule rather than the sun's.
