Frequently Asked Questions about Custom Cellular Shades

What is the Difference Between Honeycomb and Cellular Shades?

The terms "honeycomb" and "cellular" are used interchangeably to describe the same innovative window covering. The two names simply refer to different aspects of the product’s design.

The name "honeycomb" references the product’s distinct visual structure, which is reminiscent of a beehive. The name "cellular" refers to the series of air-trapping pockets, or cells, created by that structure.

This cellular construction is what makes these shades highly effective at insulating your home against heat and cold, improving overall energy efficiency. Ultimately, both names describe a beautiful and highly functional product, and we can help you select the ideal option for your home.

Can Cellular Shades be Cut to Size?

This process avoids the risk of frayed edges or an improper fit that can result from post-production cutting.
