Cellular shades, also known as honeycomb shades, get their name from the air-trapping cells in their structure, which resemble a honeycomb and are typically made from soft, durable spun lace or bonded polyester fabric. This innovative design creates air pockets that insulate your windows, helping rooms stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Available in single cell, double cell, or mini cell options, these shades improve comfort, reduce energy costs, and offer excellent privacy. Whether you choose light-filtering or room-darkening fabrics, cellular shades provide a clean, modern look that works in any space.
Choosing the right control option is key to getting the most out of your cellular shades. Your 3 Day Blinds design consultant will walk you through the available systems and help you select the one that best fits your needs.

Cellular shades improve energy efficiency through their unique honeycomb structure, which traps air within layered cells to create a barrier between your windows and indoor spaces. This insulating effect helps keep warm air inside during winter and blocks heat from entering in the summer. As a result, your HVAC system doesn’t have to work as hard, which can reduce energy consumption and lower utility bills, all while keeping your home more comfortable year-round.
Designed specifically for overhead windows, skylight cellular shades are installed within side tracks that guide the shade as it rises and lowers. Operated via remote control or smart device when motorized, skylight shades give you the ability to manage light and temperature, even in hard-to-reach places. Whether you’re reducing heat in summer, retaining warmth in winter, or protecting interior furnishings, cellular skylight shades offer a clean, effective solution for these unique windows.
