Best Window Treatments for Black Trim Windows 

Black trim windows have a distinctive style and make a space pop from the inside out. As they are growing in popularity and becoming a home design staple, it may be overwhelming to explore all of the options for shades to cover black trim windows. From light contrast to privacy control and incorporating modern styles, the right window treatment can make a huge difference in your home. There are styles for all spaces, and we are ready to attack these challenges as you search for the ideal window treatments.

When To Cover vs. Highlight

As you consider the benefits of covering black trim windows, you may also think about whether you want full coverage or you want to highlight the trim’s aesthetic appeal. If you go for a modern look, you may like how it appears through a lighter shade or sheer versus fully embracing shade coverage. For a contemporary look, you will be looking at a different variety of shades and window treatments. An industrial look may keep the trim standing strong in the background with a simple sheer drape.

Top Blinds & Shades for Black Trim Windows

When deciding what to look for in black trim window coverage, we have some of the best Hunter Douglas products for your Denver area home. Let’s look at some of the options out there and what to consider.

Roman Shades

Roman shades are an ideal option for unmatched privacy. Not only do they come in many different designs, but they can also be energy efficient and easily customizable. They are a great choice if you are looking for a shade that can fit in a tight space. Roman shades do not take up room other than directly on the window, which gives an area a more spacious look.

If you choose to lift the shades, you can still expose the black trim windows. You get the luxury of having privacy with the versatile shades or lifting them and exposing your popular trim.

Sheer Shades

Another option that is highly customizable is sheer shades. They protect against UV light, and they are easy to operate. They also allow precise control over how much light you want to be filtered into your space. One product that showcases this is the Pirouette Sheer Shades.

Sheer shades also provide privacy when fully closed. For instance, the Nantucket Sheer Shades conceal details inside or outside of the home while still providing an optimum level of light.

Roller Shades

If you wish to highlight your black trim windows while also covering them, roller shades are the best option. They have a timeless, clean appearance that looks good in any space. An interesting aspect of roller shades is the dual shades feature. In one position, you can have a see-through option. When the second option is pulled down into space, it darkens the room.
