Here in the DC area, honeycomb shades are a very popular window treatment choice. Our customers love them for their versatile style, energy efficiency, and light and privacy control. Honeycomb shades revolutionized window coverings when they were first introduced by Hunter Douglas in 1985. Customers were looking for something new and different to cover their windows, and honeycomb shades were the perfect product.

Why Choose Duette Honeycomb Shades
Honeycomb shades have come a long way in the past few decades. Today’s Duette line of honeycomb shades are made of soft and durable fabric, and are available in several pleat sizes, a wide range of colors and textures, and fabrics with opacities that range from sheer to opaque. The unique honeycomb within a honeycomb construction creates deeper colors, improved pleat retention, a softer touch and R-Values up to 38% greater than comparable pleats. The shades trap air before it enters your room, keeping your house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. From angles to arches, skylights to sliding glass doors, Duette honeycomb shades from Hunter Douglas cover just about any size, shape, or type of window.
