Motorization
The Fusion of Convenience and the Latest in Technology
Experience light exactly when you want it. Motorized window coverings give you precise and convenient control of your window treatments. Your shades can operate independently, moving only when you choose to schedule them. Motorized blinds are ideal for placement on windows where direct access to them is awkward, such as behind a couch or bathtub, or the tall hard to reach windows.
You can control your motorized blinds with either a wall-mounted wireless switch, a remote control, or a mobile app right from your phone or tablet. Your motorized shades can also be operated through voice activation when integrated with your smart-home system such as Amazon Alexa, Siri, or Google Assistant. Whether you are hurrying out the door or in a comfortable position on your sofa, voice control lets you open and close your shades with a simple verbal command to your smart-home system.
There are several apps you can use to control your motorized blinds. Somfy’s myLink and NeoSmart are most popular and easily integrated with your third-party apps and home automation system. For example, at night you can set your motorized blinds to close, outside security lights to come on and the thermostat to a cooler temperature.
For the ultimate in convenience, the mobile app is a perfect way to manage your shades when you are home or away. Schedule your shades to open automatically at 6 AM, then lower at bedtime without ever touching them.
Selecting blackout motorized window shades for your bedroom will improve the quality of your sleep. Schedule your blinds or drapes to close at a pre-determined “bedtime” to remind you when it is time to go to sleep. Set your motorized blinds to gradually open in the morning, waking you up slowly and peacefully.
With motorized window treatments, there is less need for air conditioning and heating and more opportunity for energy savings. During the summer, schedule your motorized shades to close at midday and keep your home from overheating. In the wintertime, schedule them to open during the day and invite natural sunlight to warm your home.
When it comes to children’s safety, motorized blinds give parents ultimate peace of mind. Motorized window treatments are completely cordless which makes them one of the safest options for parents and pet owners.
Direct sun exposure can cause fading and irreversible damage to the furnishings in your home. Set your motorized window treatments to a specific time to protect your valuables and not have to remember to close the blinds yourself.
When you think of window coverings and home security you may think that it prevents passersby from peering in. You can schedule your blinds to operate automatically at certain times throughout the day. It will appear as though someone is home even if you are away for the weekend or on vacation. When integrated with your home automation system, motorized window shades can be more of a deterrent to potential thieves than any other window covering.
