Vertical Cellular Shades - What to Know Before You Buy
Vertical Cellular Shade Features
Vertical cellular shades (or honeycomb shades) bring all the benefits of normal cellular shades to your sliding doors! Constructed the same as standard honeycomb shades, these vertical shades can be made to match existing shades in the home with the patio door to give a uniform style.
Like the cellular shades in other windows, vertical cellular shades provide a range of light filtering options. Gently diffuse the light coming through the sliding door or go with blackout for maximum blockage. Cellular shades also provide insulating benefits by design, so applying them to a large open space of a sliding patio door can help cut down energy costs.
Vertical Cellular Shade Considerations
- Vertical cellular shades do not have slats that can be tilted open or closed, limiting the flexibility of light control.
- Vertical cellular shades are made of materials that can absorb moisture and odor. While they work well for covering and insulating sliding doors, they are not ideal for providing cover if the sliding door is open or screened.
