Where to buy soundproof blanket in Toronto?

Hi All,

Looking to buy a soundproof blanket to hang over a door to reduce the noise coming from the door and the air gaps around it.

Google seems to only show the regular moving blankets. I'm looking for something more along the lines of this (only sold in US):
https://www.vocalboothtogo.com/acoustic ... ja-pathway

Anyone know where to get something similar?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Ended up ordering from the website. They do ship to Canada.

Is there something like that this that I could hang on the ceiling to lower the amount of noise rising upwards?

Actually, I ordered from the website. They do ship to Canada, but there's a $46 shipping fee! and I'm guessing I'll be hit with some duties. Hope they're worth it.

If one hangs such a blanket around the door, would it impede airflow at such a rate so as to make the room inside stuffy? Assume of course there is an air vent inside the room that's open.

I’ve used these with good results

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten....

Well I went to order 2 Producers Choice Blankets online from that U.S. company but it comes to $272 Canadian. Yikes. Deets below.
From what I've read though, moving blankets don't do much if you're building a DIY recording booth. (And want to be able to put it up and down easily)

Anyone else have a Canadian source to suggest?

"Buy now, think later. This is the way."

Well, I got some advice from a friend in Toronto who has a business helping people build home studios. And the Vocalboothtogo.com Producers Choice blankets she says are the best. She says Moving blankets are a cheaper alternative, but not as good.

So I bit the bullet. No deal here, sorry bargain hunters, lol! If they could be purchased in the states it would obviously be much cheaper.

Thanks for that suggestion, Sickcars. All the ones I looked at on Amazon had some mixed reviews.
