Cellular Honeycomb Blinds

01

Trapped air, real insulation

The pleated fabric forms hexagonal air cells in profile, and that trapped air is a genuine thermal buffer on the glass — in both directions. Single cells help a mild room; double cells do serious work in the rooms that struggle most, which in Kenilworth Upper's older stock is very often the roof-conversion or the room over an unheated garage. The claim stays qualitative — comfort and a lower heating and cooling load, not an invented percentage.

02

Top-down, bottom-up

Lower the blind from the top for privacy from the street or a neighbour's upstairs window while still letting sky light in above, or raise it from the bottom for the reverse. It's a genuinely useful option on Kenilworth Upper's close-set street-facing rooms, and it holds its shape on the angled dormer and gable windows common in loft conversions here.

03

Where it earns its keep

Blockout cells give a nursery or nap-time bedroom real darkness with the thermal bonus built in, and the cell structure absorbs sound too — a genuine plus on a street-facing room. It's also the honest answer for "the room above the garage is always freezing," a line we hear often enough in this suburb's renovated Victorian stock to know it's not an exaggeration.

• Light-filtering or blockout cell fabrics, single or double cell
• Cordless or motorised operation; slim stack when raised
• Shaped and skylight versions for gable and dormer windows
