Simple Guide to Cellular Shades

If you’re looking for simple style, look no further than cellular shades. They’re easy to install and operate, which make them a popular choice if you need to get shades up in a hurry.

Here are the advantages of cellular shades:

  1. Cellular shades are also a great choice for privacy. When fully closed, cellular shades block the view of your home from the outside.
  2. These versatile shades can also help save money on energy bills – their honeycomb construction traps air inside, protecting your home from both heat and cold. Upgrade to double or triple cell shades for even greater insulation properties.
  3. Cellular shades are an ideal choice for light control. Light-filtering shades can reduce glare in media rooms, while blackout shade fabrics can completely darken a room.

You can upgrade your Cellular Shades with additional features:

  1. Cordless Lift – a hidden control system eliminates the needs for cords. Simply raise or lower the cellular shades from the bottom.
  2. Top Down/Bottom Up – this upgrade grants more control over the amount of light entering your home. You can raise your shades from the bottom up, lower them from the top down, or both.

Here are some reasons you may NOT want to choose Cellular Shades for a particular room:

  1. Cellular Shades can absorb moisture in the air. Keep them away from windows near sinks, showers, or stoves to avoid unwanted smells.
  2. Cellular Shades do not have slats, so your view will be partly obstructed by the fabric of the shade.

  3. Roller shades are fantastic for blocking light and ensuring privacy when closed.

You can upgrade your roller shades with the following optional features:

  1. Cordless Lift – a hidden control system eliminates the needs for cords. Simply raise or lower the roller shades from the bottom.
  2. Continuous Cord Loop - A bead chain runs from the top-right of the shade to the bottom-right of the windowsill in a loop where it is fastened by a hold down. This eliminates dangling cords and allows the shade to move smoothly.

Here are some reasons you may NOT want to choose Roller Shades:

  1. Light filtering fabrics or liners will appear white when viewed from the street. Consider this appearance when thinking about the curb appeal of your home.
  2. Light gaps may exist on either side of the shade, even with a total blackout shade.
