Motorized Window Treatments
If ease of use and smart home technology are important to you, you will love our motorized window treatments. Almost any window treatment can be motorized and operated by remote, including drapery and plantation shutters, giving you the ultimate experience in window fashions.
There are two types of motorized window treatments. The first kind is hard wired. This type is available if your home is already hard wired in each of your windows or if you are building a home and want to integrate this into the windows. With hard wired window treatments, all of the products will go up and down in perfect synchronization and as long as there is power your window treatments will operate. The other kind of motorized window treatment is battery operated. This is a great option if your home is not wired for window treatments. Each window has a battery wand attached to the product up in the head rail. The batteries have to be changed when they lose charge, typically about once a year depending on how frequently they are used. With battery operated window treatments, the products will go up and down similarly but not in perfect synchronization as with hard wired. This is simply because batteries each hold a different charge therefore affecting the speed in which they move. With either option, a remote is used to operate them letting you control your light and privacy with the touch of a button.
The ultimate innovation for automated window treatments is motorized drapery. Motorized drapery is operated by remote control with very quiet motors. They can be programmed to open and close during different times of the day, fitting your schedule and lifestyle.
Have really high or hard to reach windows? Motorization is the best solution! Without motorized window treatments in those hard to reach windows you have to leave the product in a fixed position which will not give you any control over light, heat or privacy.
Smart home technology is becoming a part of our daily lives and with our motorized window treatments there are plenty of smart features. We offer a range of products that can be operated by your smartphone, tablet and voice controlled technology such as Google Home and Amazon Alexa. You can also sync some systems with Nest, IFTTT, Control4 and others to create a whole home experience unique to your lifestyle. Imagine setting times of day that your window treatments open and close automatically or being able to operate your window treatments when you are not home giving the illusion that you are home. There are so many benefits to having motorized window treatments.
