Custom Cellular Blinds City Centre – Free Installation

Enough that people stop moving the chair. The honeycomb holds air against the glass so the cold face of the window stops radiating straight at you. It does nothing for a draft coming through a failed seal, which is a separate repair. For a desk or a reading chair set within a metre of tower glass, the shade is the simplest fix available.

Often, yes. The aluminum sliders in that era of building give about 25 to 30 millimetres of usable depth, and a cellular headrail needs less than that. Where the depth falls short we mount outside on the drywall return instead. Those openings are also frequently out of square, so each window is measured on its own rather than copied from the one beside it.

It moves, and then it stays where it was left. The lift mechanism holds by friction, so a tug lowers or raises the shade without damaging anything and without leaving a cord behind. That is the whole safety argument. For tall glass in a City Centre unit we suggest a motor instead, since the bottom rail on a long drop is heavy for small hands anyway.

Yes, all of it happens indoors. A soft brush on a vacuum run along the fabric every few weeks lifts what sits on the surface. For anything trapped inside a cell, cool air from a hair dryer pushes it out one end. Keep water away from the honeycomb. Wet cells lose their crease and never sit flat again.
