Essence Honeycomb Blackout Shades

How They'll Help You

Whether in a bedroom, nursery, office, or living room, attaining optimal light and noise control is not just a want, but a necessity. Imagine a life without early morning sun disruptions or glare on screens – truly a life of luxury. This dream becomes reality with our robust, custom blackout window treatments.

Easy-to-clean fabric absorbs sound and blocks up to 99% of light. The 3/4" single-cell or 1/2” double-cell honeycomb design also insulates against both hot and cold weathers, saving on energy costs. Essence Blackout Honeycomb Shades cover extra wide windows up to 120", tailored to your style with popular neutral colors that seamlessly complement drapery and other products.

If you're looking for a more transparent option, Essence Light Filtering Honeycomb Shades bring soft, natural light into your living spaces, ensuring a refreshing ambiance.

IMPORTANT MEASURING TIP: If No-Drill Blinds Headrail is chosen, take all three standard width measurements (top, middle, bottom) to check for variance, but be sure to input the exact measurement of the top of your window frame into the width field. Compare the three measurements, and if the variance between them exceeds 1/4", No-Drill Blinds Headrail may not fit properly.

The No-Drill Blinds Headrail option is only available for Inside Mount, and requires 2 1/8" of depth to install. It is not recommended for use with PVC window frames.

Factory will deduct approximately 1/4" off of the No-Drill Blinds Headrail, regardless of lift style.

No-Drill Blinds Headrail is only available in the color white and will be visible after installation. A small gap may also be present between the headrail and the shade after installation.

The locking mechanism on the No-Drill Blinds Headrail will be located on the right side for each lift style.

Standard inside mount brackets are top mounted.

Hold down brackets available upon request for inside mount: Additional 1/2" headrail deduction taken at factory when adding hold down brackets.

Deductions may vary +/- 1/8". Do not account for factory deductions when measuring for your shade. Deduction information detailed in the table below.

The safety device is required by law and must be applied on chain loops and prevents free-hanging loops in operating chains. Install the safety device at the maximum distance possible from the control mechanism to prevent slack in the loop.

The back of the shade is white to conform with HOA standards.

Coverings 12" and under have a max height of 80".

All lift systems come with color coordinated painted rails.

Cordless Lift & Lock™ Top Down Bottom Up products come with attached magnets and striker plates in center to provide tight closure. Shades over 42" wide will have striker plates approximately 4" from the edges.

Striker plate will always be white, color coordination is not available.

We saved hundreds by buying shades from SelectBlinds. We worked with an excellent representative, Max, who was very helpful. He answered all our questions and provided excellent follow-up. He was responsive, professional, and friendly. The shades fit and look great. Highly recommend this going this route.

I ordered these blinds online. They were the color as described, they fit perfectly and were easy to install. Having to work nights some months, I needed these to block out the light in the bedroom so I could sleep during the day. They did the job with enthusiasm!
