Alendel Shuteye Fabric
1 colourway, decorative blackout, 55 in wide, NFPA 701. Every swatch and every Alendel specification, from the workroom that sews it in Fort Lauderdale and installs it from Miami to Palm Beach.
A decorative blackout in 100% polyester, 55 in wide, in 1 colourway
Alendel lists Shuteye as a decorative blackout in 1 colourway, in 100% polyester, at 55 in wide. The single colour is Winter White, filed by Alendel under white. Flagged in stock by Alendel. It sits in Alendel's Goodnight FR Volume 2 book.
At 55 in it is cut up the roll like a conventional drapery cloth: a panel joins widths at the seam, which sits inside a pleat, and a Roman shade takes one width up to roughly 50 inches finished before it needs a joined width. Polyester holds its pleat and its size in humid air and after cleaning, and stands up to Florida sun better than cotton or linen does. It weighs 1.11 lb per yard by Alendel's listing, and a cloth of that weight is hung on a track or rod sized for it. Care is WA (washable). It passes NFPA 701 and CAN/ULC S109, the drapery flame tests asked for on commercial and condo common-area work in the US and Canada. Every colourway is listed as Oeko-Tex. Country of origin, as Alendel lists it: China.
What Shuteye does at the window, and what it does not
Best use
Shuteye is a decorative blackout, a cloth that blocks light on its own, so it is the bedroom and media-room drapery: pinch pleat or ripplefold on a track, with wall returns and a centre overlap sewn in so the darkness is real. As a Roman shade it blacks out a bedroom window on its own, with a snug outside mount.
Light and privacy
The cloth itself stops light, so a panel needs no separate blackout liner. How dark the room gets is decided by the construction: wall returns, a centre overlap and, on a Roman, a snug outside mount. Full privacy day and night.
Cloth and care
100% polyester; 1.11 lb per yard; care WA (washable). Polyester keeps its size and its pleat in humid air and after cleaning, and holds its colour in the sun better than a natural fibre. Listed as Oeko-Tex.
Limitations
At 55 in a wide panel is made of joined widths; the seams sit inside the pleats. The weight needs a track or rod sized for it; a light decorative rod will bow.

Where Shuteye works here
Shuteye is the kind of cloth we use for a bedroom on the east glass in Miami Beach or a media room in Boca Raton: the drapery itself is the blackout, sewn with wall returns and a centre overlap on a track or a bent motorized track that closes around a corner. As a Roman shade it darkens a child's room or a bath with a snug outside mount above the frame. Cut and sewn in our Fort Lauderdale workroom, installed by our own team from Miami to Palm Beach.
For the same use, compare Shuteye with Wink (decorative blackout, 55 in, 11 colourways), Alert (decorative blackout, 55 in, 6 colourways) and Catnap (decorative blackout, 55 in, 6 colourways); the table on each page lists the width, content, care code, fire listings and weight side by side.
Shuteye: frequently asked
How many colours does Alendel Shuteye come in?
1 colourway by Alendel's listing, flagged in stock by Alendel. Every one is on this page with its swatch, colour code and FB item number, and we bring the shortlist to the consultation so the colour is judged in your own light.
Is Shuteye washable?
Alendel gives it care code WA (washable), so yes: it can be washed, and dry cleaned as well where the code allows it. The code is in the specification table below for every colourway.
Does Shuteye pass NFPA 701?
Yes by Alendel's listing: Shuteye passes NFPA 701 and CAN/ULC S109. NFPA 701 is the flame test a condo association, a hotel or an office asks for on drapery; where a project needs the certificate we request it from Alendel before the cloth is ordered.
What does Shuteye cost made up as Roman shades and draperies?
It is quoted from the yardage: the width and height of the window, the fullness, the repeat if there is one, the lining and the track or rod. The pricing page has real numbers for sheers, motorized tracks and blackout draperies, and a quote for Shuteye follows from a measure. Ask for a price with the button above and we come back with a figure, not a range.
