Response to lightproof door, enlarger setup

When setting up my new darkroom(utility room), I went to a fabric store and bought several yards of "remnant" fabric. The fabric is actually a heavy vinyl with black felt on one side. I believe that it was referred to as "designer vinyl". I purchased 28 yards of the stuff for $20 and it works great. I had to cover two interior doors and a window. To mount the vinyl, I also purchased several yards of velcro (hook side only) from the same store (less than $1.50 per yard). The velcro was tacked around the doors and window and the felt grips the velcro perfectly. It is easy to remove, and it blocks all light, even at high noon of a Texas summer day!
