| A Kitchen Patio Door With Cordless Cellular Shades Remote-Control Cellular Shades Are Above The Door |
On the patio door, the cellular shades have no cords. The headrail houses the recoil winches for the cords within the shades. The material is a single-cell fabric that provides a good degree of insulation over the patio door window.
As an outside mount, the shades on the door also have hold-down brackets at the bottom to prevent the bottom rail from swinging and hitting the door when opening and closing.
The cellular shades have a single (bottom) moving rail that travels up and down – manual control.
Above the door, the cellular shades have no cords. A single infrared sensor on the right side of the headrail serves as a receiver. The shades go up and down by using a hand-held remote control.

The countertops are quite wide. Reaching over them to grab the control cords seemed like a chore. That's why the customer picked cellular shades with remote control features. The remote system runs on AA batteries for the hend-held control, headrail sensor and the electric motor that opens and closes the shades.

| Three Honeycomb Shades – Kitchen Windows |
As you can see, the honeycomb (cellular) shades fit nicely the window frames as an inside mount (flush with the casing). Notice the light-diffusing cellular fabric. It softens the blast of the incoming light from the southern exposure as well as cuts down on UV rays damage to the hardwood floors.
