Curtains Townsville:
Custom Sheer & Blockout Curtains
Enhance your privacy, elevate your home’s interior, and take control of the North Queensland climate with Ede Shade Solutions.
Whether you want to keep your home cool during the scorching summer or let the gentle breeze in during the cooler months, our custom-made curtain range offers the perfect blend of style and functionality.
Sheer Curtains – Soft Light & Breezy Privacy
Sheer curtains are a stunning, contemporary way to soften your home’s decor. Available in a wide range of colours, textures and finishes, sheers are perfect for North-facing homes that catch the early morning sun.
During the day, sheer curtains filter harsh UV rays while still allowing natural light to fill the room. In the evenings, as the temperature drops, they let the cool tropical air flow through your home while maintaining your privacy.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Curtains in Townsville
What you need to know about our sheer curtains and blockout drapes.
What are Blockout Curtains?
Blockout curtains are designed to significantly reduce the amount of light and heat entering your living spaces. Featuring specially coated or tightly woven, thicker fabrics, these curtains effectively absorb light and heat, offering maximum protection from glare and thermal discomfort.
What is the Difference Between Blackout and Blockout Curtains?
In Australia, the terms are generally used interchangeably. “Blockout” is the standard industry term used here to describe fabrics that block 100% of light, whereas “Blackout” is a term more commonly used in North America and the UK. Both achieve the same dark, cool room!
What are the Disadvantages of Blackout Curtains?
The main downside to blockout curtains is that when they are drawn, you lose your view and natural light. This is why we highly recommend pairing them with a sheer curtain on a double track – giving you total darkness when you need it, and filtered light when you don’t.
Can People See Inside Sheer Curtains?
During the day, sheer curtains provide excellent privacy; you can see outside, but people outside cannot see in. However, at night, this effect reverses. If you have lights on inside your home, people outside will be able to see through the sheers.
How Do I Get Privacy at Night with Sheers?
To maintain privacy at night, sheer curtains should be paired with a secondary window treatment, such as a blockout curtain or a roller blind, which can be drawn once the sun goes down.
