Benefits of Motorized Shades for Homes

When you customize your new shades with Hunter Douglas, you’ll have a seemingly endless array of options for luxurious style and flexible light control. In fact, you can totally transform the way any room in your home looks simply by installing shades of your choosing. But to make your new window coverings even better, you can add the power of motorization. By replacing your old window coverings with motorized shades, you’ll have both fashion-forward style and futuristic automation in your home.

Rethink Your Daily Routine

Motorizing your window coverings allows you to totally transform your daily routine in your home. The simple fact that you’ll never have to manually adjust your windows will make your home much more convenient. But beyond that, you can take advantage of exciting automation features to optimize how you enjoy life in your home. 

For instance, you can link your motorized shades with smart home devices for easy and intuitive voice activation for your saved scene settings. So, if you have custom shades in your bathroom, like luxurious Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, you can let in natural light while you shower and voice command to close them when you need privacy. 

The scheduling feature is particularly helpful for your bedroom shades. Rather than relying on an alarm clock to wake you up in the morning, just schedule your shades to let in a burst of light so you wake up refreshed and ready to start your day!

Add Stylish Shades Anywhere

Many homes have windows that are great for custom shades but are simply too far out of reach to adjust manually. Adding the PowerView® Automation operating system to your shades instantly gets rid of this problem. If you want to add a set of motorized shades on a highly placed window, you’ll be able to customize the style you want and install the shade without worrying about how you will adjust it. 

For versatile application and practicality, the Duette® Honeycomb Shades collection is a wonderful choice. No matter what, choosing these shades offers excellent energy savings thanks to the insulating cells. But they also are designed to fit onto almost any window shape you can think of, even your skylights. 

And when you mix the SkyLift™ Skylight System with PowerView® Automation, you’ll have a potent combination. Simply tell your shades to open up when you want to let light in through your skylights and you’ll instantly illuminate your home with beautiful natural light.

Get Safer Shades

Forget old-fashioned shades with dangling cords. Customizing motorized shades allows you to not worry about having any cords that could become a safety hazard for kids or pets. Not to mention, your shades will look amazing without any cords to clutter them up. And they’ll look even more impressive when you move them using the power of motorization.
