Honeycomb Blinds – single and double cell fabrics

Honeycomb blinds that work — in real Kiwi homes

If you’re after blinds that actually help with heat, light, and noise — not just look tidy in a showroom — honeycomb blinds are worth a proper look.

These aren’t just “stylish additions”. They do a job. Especially in places like Auckland, where you can get four seasons in a day. The double-layered cell structure traps air, keeps the place warmer in winter, cooler in summer — and cuts down on power bills without doing anything fancy.

Built for insulation. Tested by time.

The cellular fabric forms a thermal pocket between your glass and the room. We’ve seen them make a real difference in older villas, townhouses, and even newer builds with too much glazing. If you go for the blockout version, there’s a layer of aluminium inside — better insulation, better light control. Less need for heating or cooling.

Fewer surprises when the power bill lands.

Control the light. Properly.

Too much glare on the telly? Furniture fading near that north-facing slider? We’ve got both light-filtering and full blockout options. For people who want flexibility, the day-night version combines both — slide between soft daylight and full blackout on the same window.

It’s the sort of setup that makes sense when your lounge faces west and cops the afternoon sun hard.

It’s the sort of setup that makes sense when your lounge faces west and cops the afternoon sun hard.

We offer two standard cell sizes: 25 mm and 38 mm, both available in single and double cell designs. This ensures flexibility in selecting the right honeycomb blinds to meet your specific requirements.

A 25mm honeycomb cell size is generally more compact and provides a sleeker appearance. This size is well-suited for smaller windows or spaces where a minimalistic look is desired.

On the other hand, a 38mm honeycomb cell size offers a larger profile and is often preferred for larger windows. The larger cells allow for enhanced insulation properties, resulting in improved energy efficiency and temperature regulation.

Smooth to use. Built to last.

You can pick the operation that suits how you live: standard cord, looped chain, cordless (good around kids), or motorised. All options run quiet and smooth — no yanking, no jamming. We’ve installed hundreds — if something didn’t hold up, we wouldn’t use it.

Installed right. Backed properly.

We handle the measure, fit, and install. No guesswork. No dodgy gaps. We’ve done homes across Auckland — from Titirangi to Torbay, villas in Grey Lynn, apartments in Parnell, family homes in Silverdale.

If you’re not sure what will actually work for your space — we’ll tell you straight. Not upselling. Just making sure you get blinds that do the job and last.

We also ship New Zealand–wide.

Our Honeycomb blinds come in two distinct fabric options, each offering unique characteristics:

Blockout/Opaque honeycomb fabrics

These fabrics are an excellent choice when you require complete privacy and light isolation. They are particularly well-suited for bedrooms or media rooms, where darkness and seclusion are desired.

Light-filtering/Translucent honeycomb fabrics

Designed to strike a perfect balance, these fabrics allow some light to filter through while maintaining privacy. Although you can’t see through them, they create a gentle, diffused glow, preserving a sense of openness. Moreover, they provide effective protection against harmful UV rays, safeguarding your furnishings.

FAQS

Q: How are honeycomb blinds packaged? Can I order honeycomb blinds online?

A: Each blind comes wrapped up on its own and clearly labelled, so there’s no guessing game. If you’ve ordered a few, we’ll likely pack them together. And yep, you can order online — just jump on our live chat at the SunGuard website or flick us an email: [email protected].

Q: What components are used in the manufacturing of honeycomb shades?

A: We only use solid gear — top-grade fabrics and components from one of the best suppliers in Taiwan. No cheap knock-offs, no corners cut.

Q: What areas are your honeycomb blinds suitable for?

A: They work just about anywhere indoors — bedrooms, lounges, home offices, meeting rooms, you name it. They’re good at keeping heat in, sun out, and light sorted. Just steer clear of super-windy spots, soggy bathrooms, or places where the cat reckons the blinds are toys.

Q: What are the maximum dimensions of honeycomb blinds?

A: It depends on the fabric and operating bits you pick. Check the size chart in the image we’ve provided — it’s all laid out there.

Q: How are honeycomb blinds measured?

A: You’ve got two ways: inside mount (neat and tidy inside the frame) or outside mount (over the top). Inside mount needs bang-on measurements; outside’s a bit more forgiving. We’ll send through clear instructions either way.

Q: How to install honeycomb blinds?

A: Brackets are universal — you can stick ’em anywhere along the headrail, just make sure it’s solid. Put at least one bracket near the control side. We include hold-down brackets too, handy if the wind likes to visit.

Q: How to clean cellular blinds?

A: Don’t mess with chemicals. Use a cold hairdryer, a soft brush, or a dry cloth to dust off. For the odd spot, a damp cloth and mild detergent will do — just don’t scrub like you’re sanding a deck.

Q: What child safety measures are in place for honeycomb blinds?

A: We always recommend using the child safety gear we provide. Doesn’t take long to install, and it keeps little ones safe.

Q: Do you offer honeycomb blinds installation in Auckland?

A: Too right. We install across the whole Auckland region — North Shore, Rodney, Central, East, West, South… if you’re in Auckland, we’ve probably already been on your street.

Q: Is shipping available across New Zealand?

A: Yep — we send blinds all over Aotearoa. North Island, South Island, big towns, small towns — no worries.

Q: Do you offer finance options for honeycomb blinds?

A: We sure do. You can use Gem Visa or Q Card — up to 24 months interest-free, if that suits. Just have a squiz at the terms.
