Honeycomb Blinds for Windows and Doors

The little pockets in honeycomb blinds have revolutionized home owners’ ability to reduce energy costs and improve their efficiency. Everyone can play their part in lowering carbon emissions by making small changes, including the way they cover windows and doors.

Small Changes

Any type of curtain or blind will provide some form of protection against changing temperatures in any room of the house. Whether it is your front entrance, bathroom, or kitchen, window coverings allow consumers to control how much heat or cool air they lose and how much of either one gets in. Blinds and curtains interrupt drafts while you save up for new windows.

Of course, the most efficient types of window treatments are designed for the job of insulation. While ready made Roman blinds and Venetian shades offer excellent coverage, honeycomb blinds were made for this type of thing.

The Honeycomb Revolution

Firstly, these types of blinds feature pockets or cells which capture hot or cold air. They act as a form of insulation for windows. Even many excellent windows leak energy at their seams. Secondly, these blinds come in convenient forms to cover doors and windows and to open from multiple directions.

For instance, consider a room that gets sun virtually all day. The angle at which it lands in that room will change all day long. At one time, windows would have been covered for much of the day to block the sun or blinds would have been slowly raised over a period of time, letting in cold or hot air and disrupting privacy.

With honeycomb blinds, it is possible to open from the top and the bottom, one at a time or simultaneously. There are designs which open from just one end or the other and they are cheaper. But with a dual-opening configuration, the sun is blocked at any given angle without blacking-out a room entirely or letting in prying eyes.

For Doors

Ready made Roman blinds are also an excellent choice for providing privacy in any room, but they open vertically. For blinds that can slide to one side, the cellular style is ideal. They can be fitted to front doors, patio doors, and to windows that open horizontally.
