Are you disappointed with your purchase of expensive custom blackout shades, only to find out they still let a considerable amount of light in along the edges? And now it’s a problem because

  • Perhaps you’re a nurse, police officer, firefighter or someone who works nights and needs to sleep in the daytime.

  • Or you just like it real dark

Sleepy Time Tracks Is The Window Blocker Solution You’ve Been Looking For!

Every Blackout Shade Needs The Perfect Partner!

Room darkening window treatments do a great job at blocking light. Little to no light transfers through the shades material. But because shades have to be made a little narrower than your window opening, there will be light gaps. Doesn’t matter if it’s an inside or outside mount You Will Have Light Gaps.

Hi Bob here, as a window treatment installer many people were disappointed with their new blackout shades because light still seeped through along the edges. Didn’t seem like anyone was addressing this issue so I came up with a solution we call Sleepy Time Tracks. They attach along the edges of your existing blackout shades (no need to buy new shades). Since 2006 we have helped thousands of people get the rest they need. I personally guarantee you will be happy with Sleepy Time Tracks.

Perfect! They were easy to cut with heavy duty crafting scissors. I painted them with acrylic paint. Very happy with them! Easy to install and easy to remove with the magnetic strips. I will definitely use this company again for the lower windows next!! Very fast shipping too!

I ordered these to go along the sides of a blackout roller shade that we had installed in our toddler's room as much light was still entering the room during naptime even with the shade installed. While the room is not completely blacked out with use of these strips, it has helped tremendously and we are for the most part satisfied. Our toddler now knows when the shade goes down that it is naptime. 👍🏾

Sleepy Time Tracks work as advertised and are super easy to install. I used them in a dedicated Home Theater room and they prevent light leakage which spoils the impact of a front projector setup. Great product and super fast shipping!

No words to explain how happy my son is! Crazy amount of light coming through was waking him every day at 6 am. His room is so amazingly dark now and he’s sleeping so much later! And really amazing how you can still raise and lower the shades so easily!
