HONEYCOMB SHADES: INNOVATIVE WINDOW TREATMENTS IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA

AVL Window Blinds designs honeycomb shades that combine energy performance with a clean, modern look. Serving homes across Buncombe and Henderson County, we specialize in cellular shades built to meet the sophisticated demands of modern mountain living — from high-ceiling great rooms to compact home offices.

EXPLORE OUR HONEYCOMB SHADE COLLECTION

Honeycomb shades, also called cellular shades, use a pleated cell structure that traps air for natural insulation. It's one of the most effective ways to control temperature and light in the same shade.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF OUR HONEYCOMB SHADES

Honeycomb shades are built with pleated fabric that forms hexagonal cells, and those cells act as insulation layers that stabilize indoor temperatures. This design keeps rooms warmer in winter and cooler in summer, significantly lowering energy expenditures. Paired with expert installation from AVL Window Blinds, these shades optimize your home's energy efficiency year-round.


Offered in a wide range of colors and styles, our honeycomb shades provide versatile light control, from translucent to full blackout. You can customize each shade to fit your exact preferences, room by room.

FAQ'S: Explore HONEYCOMB Shades

  • Q: What are honeycomb shades and how do they function?

    Honeycomb shades, also called cellular shades, are window coverings made from pleated fabric that forms a hexagonal cell structure. That cell shape traps a layer of air between the shade and the window, which acts as insulation and reduces heat transfer through the glass. The result is a shade that manages both light and temperature at the same time.

  • Q: What benefits do honeycomb shades offer?

    Honeycomb shades offer insulation, privacy, noise reduction, and light control in a single product. Their cellular design lowers energy costs by stabilizing indoor temperature, while their sound-absorbing structure helps quiet a room. They're also available in light-filtering to full blackout options, so you can match the shade to the room's purpose.

  • Q: Can honeycomb shades fit all window types and sizes?

    Yes, honeycomb shades can be custom-built for most window types and sizes, including large openings and non-standard shapes common in Buncombe and Henderson County homes. AVL Window Blinds measures every window on-site to ensure a precise, gap-free fit rather than relying on standard sizing.

  • Q: How should I clean and maintain honeycomb shades?

    The best way to maintain honeycomb shades is regular dusting with a vacuum brush attachment or a hair dryer set to a cool, low airflow setting to clear dust from the pleats. Avoid pressing hard on the fabric, since the cell structure can crush or flatten under too much pressure. We provide care instructions specific to your shade style at installation.
