Motorized Blinds and Shades Provide More Than a Window Covering
Often overlooked in a home, blinds play an important part in your home’s aesthetic. Once made of flimsy plastic that would twist to open and close, today’s blinds and shades are made of sturdy and reliable materials and are motorized and automated. Homeowners no longer have to fight with the cord when raising and lowering their blinds; one touch on the remote and they raise and lower on their own.
Hunter Douglas offers a line of motorized smart shades that can be controlled by an app on your phone or even with your voice! Not only are the shades motorized and automated, but they are energy efficient, offer increased privacy, and are safe to have in homes with young children and pets. It truly is a win-win for your home. These easy-to-operate blinds and shades are great for hard-to-reach windows or for individuals with limited mobility. If your home is being renovated or is new construction, motorized shades and blinds can even be hardwired into the rooms.
Motorized blinds and shades can be customized to your home with over 25 different styles and color options. These blinds can also be customized and programmed to fit your lifestyle. Imagine swapping your alarm clock for the gentle wake-up of your bedroom shades opening to the sunlight. If the afternoon sun adds unwanted heat to your room, you can set your blinds to close to keep your house cooler during the day and then reopen in the evening to show the beautiful sunset. For added security, these blinds can be set to open and close while you’re away, giving the illusion that you are home. There are many ways to customize the window coverings to enhance your home’s lifestyle.
