Drapery Lining

The lining is an essential component of quality movie theatre curtains; not only does it help to block natural light to blackout your room, but it can provide noise reduction or acoustic absorption too. A lined theatre curtain is also protected from UV fading and moisture damage and can improve your home's energy efficiency.

Colour Choices

Dark coloured curtains look the best in a dedicated home theatre room as they create a dramatic effect and absorb light creating a more intimate and enveloping feel. However, some homes may not have a specific media room, so Amaru can make acoustic and light-blocking curtains in any colour, from modern neutrals to bold colours and designer patterns.

To ensure the best home theatre curtains in Melbourne are a perfect match for your home, Amaru offers an extensive range of media curtain fabric colours. Need help deciding? Our professional interior décor consultants are here to help.

Sound proofing

Sound proofing

Our theatre curtains act as a baffle to reduce sound reflection and vibration off window glass and walls improving the overall acoustics in a room even while open. These acoustic media curtains are thicker than standard curtains and can block up to 40% of noise transfer, allowing you to watch your film or play your music without being disturbed or disturbing others.

Improved Insulation

Improved Insulation

Theatre curtains offer a passive way to improve your home's energy efficiency and reduce your heating and cooling costs. Although you may have chosen them to block light and sound, these extra thick curtains will also act as an insulating barrier keeping extreme cold and heat from entering through bare window glass.

Complete Coverage

Complete Coverage

Home theatre curtains can be made with extra length, so they pool dramatically on the floor. Extra-long theatre curtains not only look terrific, but they also provide even greater noise absorption. Amaru can also extend your theatre drapes to run the full length of a wall for a completely opulent gold class cinema look.

Improved Sound

Improved Sound

These specialty acoustics curtains help get the best possible sound out of your home theatre and Hi-Fi system. Thicker than standard curtains, the tightly woven textiles absorb and buffer soundwaves, stopping them from bouncing off window glass and other surfaces to create vibrations and flutter echo in a room.

FAQs about Theatre Room Curtains

Expand all
Will having thick heavy curtains make the room too hot and stuffy in the summer?

It is a common misconception that the thickness of your movie room curtains will make the space feel hot and stuffy during the height of summer. In truth, because of their excellent insulating properties, theatre curtains can help you create a dark, cool room into which to escape the summer heat or stay warm and cosy during winter’s chill.

How can I block sunlight completely?

For an authentic cinema experience, your home theatre should be as dark as possible. First, to achieve full blackout, have your theatre curtains extra-wide and extra-long; they need to extend past the window to touch the walls on either side and make ample contact with the floor. Secondly, install a pelmet across the top of the curtain. These two modifications together will stop any light from breaking through and prevent haloing.

Can theatre curtains be motorised or automated?

Yes, we offer motorised theatre curtain solutions so you won’t need to get up from the couch to draw the drapes on your next midday movie.

Are made to measure theatre curtains expensive to buy?

Custom-made theatre curtains will vary in cost based on the type of drapery fabric, linings, lengths and widths. Naturally, the more fabric and specialised manufacturing required will determine the price of a custom media room curtain. Whether looking for cheap theatre curtains in simple, plain designs right through to feature soft furnishings in luxurious high-end designer textiles, Amaru will work with your budget to create a perfect solution for your home theatre.

How do I care for my theatre curtains?

Regularly dust your theatre curtains using a soft, clean cloth or feather duster. For a more thorough clean, you can use a hand held vacuum on low suction. If you plan to use any cleaning solutions on the fabric, always test it on a swatch or inconspicuous area first. All Amaru custom curtains are supplied with a care label attached to their heading specific to the fabric type and care requirements of your chosen window dressing.
