If you work from home, you want to be able to work in a comfortable environment – not too hot or too cold. You’ll also want to be alert and focused for the day ahead. If you struggle to get your home at the optimum temperature or suffer from lack of sleep due to natural light, then blackout shutters are the ideal solution. Here are the benefits of blackout shutters when working from home.
Aids a good night’s sleep
The combination of shutters and an integrated blackout blind means you have a double-layered window shade. This means you will be able to drift off to sleep in complete darkness without being disturbed by natural light, or light from streetlamps that can beam into your room. You also won’t be woken early due to bright mornings, ensuring you wake up well-rested and ready to take on the day.
Keeps your home office cool

If your home office receives a lot of direct sunshine during the day, then blackout shutters can help block out the sun. Whilst you might prefer to work in the natural light, if the temperature is soaring outside then keeping the heat out will you allow you to work more comfortably without feeling too hot. You also have the option to keep your shutters open during the coolest times of the day and shut when the sun is at its strongest, to maintain an ideal temperature.
Reduces noise pollution
solid panel shutters are a great alternative to blackout shutters
If your office is located at the front of your home, particularly if you’re on a busy road, then you’ll want to keep noise to a minimum. The combination of louvers and honeycomb blinds adds a dual layer to help reduce noise from cars and people, allowing you to concentrate on your work. If you’re looking for a more classic shutter style that provides similar benefits, solid panel shutters are a great alternative.
Extra privacy and security
If your office is road-facing and you often have passers-by, then blackout shutters give you extra privacy from prying eyes. This is especially important if you have a lot of technology in your room that could attract unwanted attention. When you have finished work for the day, blackout shutters add a double layer of security to help deter a break in.
A stylish addition
To enhance the look of your home, blackout shutters can be customised to suit your office and bedroom décor. For the blackout blind, choose from black or white, and combine with shutters in a variety of colours and finishes to complement your room.
