    The Silhouette does not come in a blackout, the are only available as a room darkening product. The reason for that is because the "louver's" don't shut tight as they do with shutters. However, that being said, how light sensitive are you? I have clients that are perfectly happy with the level of "darkness" that they provide. If however, you are looking for something with that same softness as the Silhouette, but also provides a much darker room I would suggest the Pirouette.

    Let me know if you want more information, I'm happy to help!

    Wonder if they will mix well in a sunroom with plantation shutters? Cannot figure out what to do with a french door with side vents.

    Leona, plantation shutters work fabulously as door shades. Why don't you send me a picture so that I can make some suggestions?!

    Hi Maria, not sure if Houzz has private messaging feature. ??

    House is still under construction, but doors and windows are in.
    This gives you an idea of room, windows, the French door we installed, and example of shutters I like.

    Also, view from outside. There is another set of French doors off kitchen. The silhouette sheers on doors seemed so pretty in original picture on this discussion.

    Hi Lena,

    Since I haven't heard from you, I did want to point out that your sidelights may very well be too narrow for the Silhouette, it's why i was wanting to know the dimensions. Should you want confirmation please just drop a line either here or via email.
