FAQs about Motorized Window Treatments:

What are the Advantages of Smart Blinds?

This is the most frequently asked and the most important query.

First and foremost, customers choose smart blinds for their ease of operation. Automation replaces manual labor, yet the pull function still allows for manual labor. Secondly, the security of your house is increased. Automated blinds can make your property look like it is occupied, which can deter potential robbers. Also, the blinds are only used when necessary, and it helps conserve a significant amount of energy in your smart home.

How Long Do the Shades' Batteries Last?

Modern shades use very energy-efficient motors. The opening and closing of battery-powered shades can be repeated hundreds of times. You might only need to update your batteries every two to three years, if not less frequently.

Can I Control Them Using a Smartphone?

Yes! Many modern blinds come equipped with bridges that can link to your home network. There are apps that allow you to manage individual blinds, set timers for them to open and close, and much more. You can also use a voice command on voice control devices like Alexa and Siri and simply tell the window shades to open or close.

Can They Be Used for Large Windows?

Motorized blinds can be specially made to accommodate windows of almost any size, including extremely big windows.

Is the Motor Loud?

Most of these motors are made to be so silent and subtle that you won't even know they're operating.

Will the Styles and Materials be Limited?

The style selections for motorized window curtains are fairly diverse today. You'll be pleased by the sheer number of pre-made solutions available. Beyond shades, you can also obtain smart drapes and blinds integration. Additionally, there are other custom choices for you.
