If there were a popularity contest for window treatments, roller shades would definitely take the crown. With sleek profiles and modern finishes, they’re a crowd pleaser. But add automation, and motorized roller shades leave the competition in the dust. Curious about choosing motorization? Let’s dive into the possibilities.
Roller Shades: Why Are They So Popular?
It’s simple: style and function. Roller shades offer incredible light control, and when not in use, they seamlessly disappear into the headrail for a clean, minimalist look. What’s even better? We offer 7 different types, each with a variety of contemporary fabrics and finishes. With so many options, you're sure to find the perfect match for your space!
Motorized Roller Shades: How Do They Work?
It’s all about control, your way. You can use a remote, a phone app, or even a voice command to adjust your shades with ease. Set favourite positions, trigger automatic openings and closings, or make instant adjustments.
Lighting Control
Let the morning sun flood your space as you sip your coffee, or adjust the shades halfway to block out harsh light. For ultimate privacy, close them completely at night. You have full control to create the ideal atmosphere with just a click or voice command.
Safety
No more tangled, dangerous cords. Traditional blinds with cords can be a safety hazard for children and pets. Motorized roller shades are completely cordless, so you don’t have to worry about preventable disasters.
Energy Savings
Morning sunshine can heat up your lower floors, but by the time it reaches the upper levels, it’s causing uncomfortable temperatures. After all, heat rises. So, keep your home cool with motorized roller shades that are energy efficient.
Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades combine roller shades with cellular technology to help maintain your home's energy efficiency.
Privacy
Privacy is a personal preference. But motorized roller shades give you control over how much you want. Need extra privacy for street-facing rooms at night? No problem. Want to open them up during the day for a little view? You can easily adjust them for both privacy and visibility, day or night.
Convenience
Life is easier when automation is involved. Motorized roller shades save money, reduce stress, and make daily tasks a breeze. Hard-to-reach windows? Not even a problem! Set your shades to open and close at specific times, and even use your app from the beach to adjust them while on vacation. With motorized shades, it can look like someone’s home even when you're miles away.
Do You Have Hesitations?
If you’re hesitant about motorized roller shades, we get it. Concerns like cost, power source, and installation are common. So, let’s talk about them.
Cost
Yes, motorized roller shades cost more than traditional shades. However, it might not be as much as you think. Don’t let cost hold you back from exploring your options. We’d be happy to provide a quote so you can see for yourself that it’s not as much as you may think.
Power Sources
There are three different power options: battery-operated (disposable or rechargeable), solar power, and hardwiring. Rechargeable battery packs have become a popular choice, saving homeowners from replacing disposable batteries. Solar power is becoming a favorable option amongst clients and hardwiring is ideal for new homes or renovations due to exposed walls.
Professional Installation
When it comes to installation, it’s best to leave it to the professionals. Our experienced team is here to make sure everything goes to plan. Don’t risk a DIY fail. Let the experts handle it.
