Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades

Duette® Cellular Shades have an innovative interior construction resembling a honeycomb. These uniquely shaped cells trap air to prevent it from passing through your window, which helps maintain a comfortable temperature. Cellular shades gently diffuse light into a welcoming glow and are available in various opacities, from sheer to opaque.

Operating Your Hunter Douglas Cellular Shades

The Top-Down/Bottom-Up design makes your cellular shades more versatile by offering privacy and sunlight simultaneously. You may also upgrade your cellular shades with the Duolite® system, which features a sheer front shade and an independent opaque liner on a single headrail.

Additional operating systems for Duette® Cellular Shades include:

  • PowerView® Automation: An award-winning automation system that gives effortless control of your shades using an app, remote, or voice commands.
  • UltraGlide®: A retractable wand that remains a constant length, providing a clean look and a safe environment for kids and pets alike.
  • LiteRise®: Lift and lower your shades by pushing or pulling on the bottom rail. When released, your shades stay securely in place.
  • EasyRise™: A wall-mounted cord tensioner provides smooth, reliable movement that’s perfect for oversized windows.
  • Simplicity™: This manual system allows you to move your skylight shades with a telescoping pole.

Using Cellular Shades Throughout Your Home

You can use cellular shades on windows of every shape and size, including arches, angles, circles, and bays. The Vertiglide™ system makes it easy to install cellular shades on sliding glass doors, and the SkyLift™ Skylight System gives you precise light control of skylights.

The LightLock® blackout system, with its unique U-shaped side channels that absorb and deflect light, is perfect for reducing unwanted light in bedrooms.
