PVC Light Blockers Blackout Light Blockers Side Tracks for Window Shades and Blinds Side Tracks for Blackout Shades Easy to Instal Light Blocking Strips for Bedroom (White, 58",2Pcs)

The media could not be loaded. These side light blockers were a game changer after I ordered our new blackout pull down shades. I put these up in no time and I only used the adhesive part to secure them, and they have showed no signs of coming off. I used a box cutter to cut each side to the right height, and that wasn't too difficult.

Very expensive for what it is but works perfect with the Yoolax WiFi blinds sold on Amazon

I got these to put around some roller shades I had installed as they were inside the frame and did not go edge to edge. They certainly work but aren’t perfect.Installation was mediocre. I had to cut these down with a small hand saw and the edge was very rough. I put that at the top behind the valence but probably should have sanded it for safety. The peel off paper on the adhesive was also a pain to remove. It ripped several times when I was peeling so I needed a small razor to find the edge again.The adhesive itself is very sticky. So much so that when I tried to quickly remove it after touching it to the wall to align it better, it took off some of the paint. I don’t think there’s any risk of it falling off, but will update this review if it ever does.I don’t use the hardware or the included as the adhesive felt plenty strong. Similarly, I haven’t added the included blackout tape to line the inside yet. I’m sure that will help a bit. As it stands though, this certainly does help block out some of the light but you’ll really need to use guides to push a shade flush against the inside track if you want it to block everything.It looks pretty good now that it’s installed and I could probably paint over it if I wanted to match the wall color in the future. The value is also pretty good relative to other options. Size is fine now that I cut it down.Overall it’s a good option, though I’d prefer to see easier adhesive tape removal and some kind of included guide to keep it level when installing. Feels easy enough to include a plastic piece that can clip on to each end that can keep the piece square to the edge of the frame when you’re installing.

Well finished. The sides are protected by an adhesive tape.

Did what I wanted th to do, block the excess light! Easy to install

My wife works the night shift. And so we've been trying to find a solution if you don't care how it looks, you can flip them around and push them closer to the window and it will completely block all of the lightThe left and the top have the strip. The right does not I need to order one more

I had roller shades professionally installed in a new condo and couldn’t stand the light leakage out the sides. The room was so bright with the shades all the way down. Apparently, Graber doesn’t sell side channels for the expensive shades we purchased and I didn’t even realize it would be a problem until they were installed. I purchased these UChannels from Amazon and had the company that sold us the shades cut them and install them using 2 wood screws. I then had to buy rope caulk and put it behind the channels to block the slivers of light that came through the wood frame and the channels. The room is much darker now and I am happy with the purchase. Before and after pics attached to review.

I was setting this up in my kids room on two windows. I managed to do the first window without any issues, but I misaligned the second window and some light was creeping through.I thought oh no problem, I see where I misaligned the initial placement. Wanted to redo my placement and I cannot remove these from my wall! I removed one side of the blockers with minimal issues, but this other side ended up damaging my wall. The adhesive was so strong the blocker ended up snapping as I was trying to remove it. I'm now stuck with half of this light blocker in my kid's window frame and I have no idea how to remove it. At this point, I just need to remove it with minimal damage to my window frame.If you can do this on your first try, you're golden and works like a charm. Slight misalignment and need to redo the placement? Expect a headache.
