What Are Sheer Curtains?
Sheer curtains are made using lightweight, translucent fabric that gently filters natural light while adding softness, texture and movement to a room.
Unlike heavier curtains, sheer curtains allow daylight to enter while reducing the harsh appearance of direct sunlight. Their flowing design works particularly well across large windows and sliding doors.
At Sasco Screens & Blinds, our sheer curtains are measured to suit your windows and professionally installed for a neat, elegant finish.
Benefits of Sheer Curtains
Sheer curtains can transform the appearance of a room while keeping the space bright and welcoming.
Softens Natural Light
Sheer fabric gently filters daylight and helps reduce the harsh appearance of strong sunlight entering the room.
Elegant Interior Finish
The flowing fabric adds warmth, softness and movement to modern and established interiors.
Ideal for Large Windows
Sheer curtains work particularly well across wide windows, full-height glass and sliding door openings.
Daytime Privacy
During the day, sheer curtains can soften outside views and provide a level of privacy while still allowing natural light into the room.
Pairs with Blockout Blinds
Sheer curtains can be combined with blockout roller blinds to provide a softer daytime finish and stronger privacy at night.
Different Colours Available
Choose from different neutral tones and fabric finishes to complement your flooring, walls, furniture and interior style.
Where Can Sheer Curtains Be Used?
- Living areas: Adds softness and style while keeping the room bright during the day.
- Bedrooms: Creates a warm and elegant finish when combined with a blockout blind.
- Sliding doors: Provides flowing coverage across wide glass openings.
- Dining areas: Helps soften strong daylight and create a more comfortable atmosphere.
- Large windows: Complements full-height windows and open-plan interiors.
- Master bedrooms: Adds texture and a more luxurious appearance around the window.
Do Sheer Curtains Provide Privacy at Night?
Sheer curtains can provide useful privacy during the day when the outside is brighter than the inside of the home.
At night, when interior lights are on, people outside may be able to see through the sheer fabric. For stronger night-time privacy, sheer curtains should be paired with blockout roller blinds or another blockout window covering.
Sheer Curtains with Blockout Roller Blinds
Combining sheer curtains with blockout roller blinds gives you two different layers of light and privacy control.
During the day, the sheer curtains can remain closed to soften natural light and create an elegant finish. At night, the blockout blind can be lowered for stronger privacy and light control.

Curtain Tracks and Opening Options
The way your sheer curtains open can be selected to suit the window, sliding doorway and room layout.
Centre Opening
The curtains separate in the middle and draw towards both sides of the window.
Left Opening
The curtain draws towards the left side, which can suit particular sliding door and furniture layouts.
Right Opening
The curtain draws towards the right side to keep the preferred doorway or window area accessible.
Custom Measuring and Professional Installation
Accurate measuring helps sheer curtains hang evenly, move smoothly and provide the right amount of coverage across the window or doorway.
