Why Cellular Shades
Cellular shades, sometimes called honeycomb, are built from pleated cells that trap a layer of still air against the glass. That trapped air is genuine insulation, and it is the reason this is the highest-performing energy product in the category.
In a Las Vegas summer that insulation works in the direction people forget: it slows heat coming in, not just heat leaking out. On a single-pane window or an older aluminum frame, a double-cell shade makes a measurable difference in how hard the air conditioning has to work in the afternoon.
They also stack remarkably small. A cellular shade raised to the top of a tall window takes up a fraction of the space a comparable roman or roller would, which keeps the glass usable. Top-down bottom-up operation lets you drop the top for daylight while keeping the lower half private — the setup we specify constantly for front-facing bedrooms and street-side bathrooms.
Best for
Bedrooms, older windows, and any home where the summer power bill is a concern.

Questions
Questions about cellular shades.
Do cellular shades help with energy efficiency?
Yes. Their honeycomb cells trap a layer of still air against the glass, and that air is real insulation. In a Las Vegas summer it slows heat coming in, not just heat leaking out. On single-pane windows or older aluminum frames, a double-cell shade makes a measurable difference in how hard your air conditioning works in the afternoon. How much you save depends on your windows and which way they face, so we won't promise you a number.
What window treatments provide privacy without making a room too dark?
A few good ones. Transitional shades alternate sheer and solid bands, so one shade goes from filtered daylight to full privacy. Top-down bottom-up cellular shades lower from the top for daylight while the bottom half stays private, which we use constantly for front bedrooms and street-side bathrooms. Solar shades keep your view by day; for night privacy we pair one with a blackout on a dual roller. Woven woods need a privacy liner behind them.
Can I get custom shades for large windows or sliding glass doors?
Yes. Sliding doors are the hardest openings in most Las Vegas homes, and vertical blinds are still the most sensible answer: the vanes stack to one side so the door still works as a door, and they tilt to block the low western sun. Cellular shades stack small, which keeps tall windows usable, and motorization handles glass too high to reach. On very wide openings composite shutter panels get heavy, so we plan the layout at the measurement, not after the order.
How long does it take to receive and install custom shades?
3–5 weeks for blinds and shades, 6–10 weeks for shutters, counted from the day you order. Motorized products take about a week longer. Your lead time is written on your quote, so you know before you say yes. Need privacy sooner? We put up temporary shades for free while you wait. On install day we install, walk through every window with you, clean up, and haul your old blinds away free.
