Don't wait until it's too late. Every second counts during a lockdown emergency. When an active shooter can see into your classroom, students and teachers become targets. ALP Shades are the only classroom blackout shades that feature a quick-release strap AND that secure at the bottom of the window, making them the best choice for every school. No other shade provides an immediate, secure and effective lockdown solution. Unlike many window blinds and blackout curtains, no tools, hardware, mounting brackets, or drilling is required. Our patented design utilizes a strong industrial hook and loop adhesive strip and tabs that hold the shade in place and provides the most effective method of dropping and securing the shade to the bottom of the window. Simply release the strap at the top so the shade drops over the window and press the bottom of the shade in place to completely block the intruder's view. Our simple solution to classroom safety requires no extra time in the event of an emergency. ALP blackout shades are much safer options than blackout paper or blackout blinds for windows.
ALP offers blackout shades in two unique fabrics to protect your classroom:

TRADITIONAL blackout fabric--the standard in lockdown shade protection.
NEXT GENERATION blackout fabric that can be cleaned easily.
