Why Choose Day and Night Blinds
Day and night blinds have become incredibly popular in Irish homes, and it's easy to see why. Unlike traditional blinds where you either have them open or closed, these clever designs let you fine-tune your lighting throughout the day. Align the sheer stripes for soft, filtered light that brightens your room while reducing glare – perfect for daytime living. When evening comes, simply adjust the blind so the solid stripes overlap, creating complete privacy and darkness. This dual functionality means one blind does the job of two, making them both practical and cost-effective. Their contemporary striped appearance adds a designer touch to any room, from minimalist modern interiors to transitional spaces.
How Day Night Blinds Work
The magic of day and night blinds lies in their unique double-layer construction. Two layers of fabric – each featuring alternating sheer and opaque horizontal stripes – are positioned in front of each other. When you operate the blind using the chain or motorised control, the front layer moves against the back layer. This allows you to:
- Align sheer bands – Maximum light enters while maintaining daytime privacy
- Align solid bands – Block light completely for full privacy and darkness
- Partially overlap – Create any level of light filtering in between
The result is infinitely adjustable light control that adapts to your needs throughout the day, all without raising or lowering the blind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between day night blinds and zebra blinds?
They're actually the same product! Day and night blinds go by several names including zebra blinds (due to their striped appearance), vision blinds, duo blinds, and twist blinds. The name "day and night" refers to their ability to provide both daytime light filtering and night-time privacy. Whatever you call them, they work the same way – alternating bands of sheer and solid fabric that you can align for different light levels.
Are day and night blinds suitable for bedrooms?
Yes, day and night blinds work wonderfully in bedrooms. When you align the solid stripes, they provide excellent privacy and significantly reduce incoming light. While they may not achieve 100% blackout like dedicated blackout roller blinds, most people find them more than adequate for comfortable sleep. For maximum darkness, choose darker fabric colours like charcoal or navy, which block more light than pale shades.
Can day night blinds be motorised?
Absolutely! We offer motorised options for day and night blinds, which is particularly useful for large windows, hard-to-reach skylights, or simply for added convenience. Operate your blinds via remote control, wall switch, or even smartphone app. Motorised blinds are also ideal for smart home integration and can be programmed to adjust automatically throughout the day.
