Why Choose Duette® Honeycomb Shades?
Energy Efficiency & Cellular Insulation
Duette® Honeycomb Shades are designed with cellular pockets that trap air at the window, creating an insulating barrier between your home and the glass. This unique construction helps reduce heat transfer, keeping interiors more comfortable during hot South Texas summers while also helping maintain indoor temperatures during cooler weather.
For homeowners looking to improve comfort without sacrificing style or natural light, Duette® shades are one of our most versatile energy-efficient window treatments. Choose from a range of cell sizes, fabrics, and opacities to customize the level of light control, privacy, and insulation for each room.
TrackGlide™ & Specialty Window Solutions
Duette® Honeycomb Shades can be customized for windows and doors that are difficult to cover with traditional shades. For tilt-turn windows, narrow windows, French doors, and sidelights, the TrackGlide™ System uses slim side tracks to keep the shade aligned with the glass as the window or door tilts or swings open.
Duette® is also available for many specialty-shaped windows, including arches, angles, circles, and other unique configurations. This versatility makes it possible to coordinate cellular shades throughout your home while bringing insulation, privacy, and light control to windows that can otherwise be challenging to cover.
LightLock® for Enhanced Room Darkening
For bedrooms, media rooms, and other spaces where darkness matters, Duette® Honeycomb Shades are available with the LightLock® system. Specially designed side channels help reduce the light gaps that can occur around the edges of traditional shades, providing enhanced room darkening and privacy.
Paired with room-darkening cellular fabric, LightLock® helps create a darker, more comfortable environment for sleeping, relaxing, or reducing screen glare. Explore more room darkening window treatments for managing incoming light throughout your home.
Flexible Light Control with Duolite® & Top Down Bottom Up
Duolite® combines light-filtering and room-darkening fabrics within a single Duette® shade, giving you flexible control from daylight to darkness. This innovative dual shade system lets you soften incoming light during the day, then transition to room darkening for greater privacy, glare reduction, and nighttime comfort.
For a different approach to light and privacy, top down bottom up shades can be positioned from either direction. Lower the shade from the top to invite natural light and preserve your view while keeping the lower portion of the window covered for privacy—an especially useful feature for bedrooms, bathrooms, and street-facing windows.
ClearView® Sheer Fabrics
ClearView® sheer fabrics offer enhanced view-through while preserving the insulating cellular design of Duette® Honeycomb Shades. The sheer fabric creates a clearer view of the outdoors while allowing natural daylight into your home, making it an appealing option for rooms where enjoying the scenery is a priority.
ClearView® also helps diffuse incoming light and filter UV rays, providing a comfortable balance of daylight, glare control, and outdoor views for homes throughout Central Texas.
