Motorized Blinds and Shades: Are They Worth the Money?

Do you love innovation? Motorized blinds and shades can make life so much easier—and they're the perfect last step to creating the smart home of your dreams. But, is it worth the extra money to switch out your regular blinds for motorized window treatments? We've got answers. 

3 Advantages of Installing Motorized Blinds

In the last few years, the pricing on motorized window coverings has come way down—making them more affordable than ever before. If the price drop has you thinking about installing a set of your own, here are three additional advantages to help you make up your mind.

1. Convenience

The number one advantage of motorized blinds and shades? Convenience. When you have motorized window treatments installed, all you need to do is touch a single button on the remote to raise or lower them. Lounging and want to let more light in? Don't get up—control the blinds from the comfort of your couch or bed. If you have a lot of windows or hard-to-reach windows, you can also control them all at once—saving you time and headache if you're in a rush!

2. Privacy

Looking for the ultimate privacy? Motorized blinds and shades can be programmed to automatically open and close for peace of mind. Even if you are on vacation, you can control your motorized blinds with programmable timers to make it appear as if someone is moving around the house. If anyone is staking out the place, the movement of the blinds may scare them off to an easier target. You can read more of our favorite home safety tips here.

3. Energy-Savings

In addition to convenience and privacy, motorized blinds can help you cut down on your energy bill, too. If you are environmentally conscious or mindful of your budget, motorized blinds can help you control how your home and HVAC system deals with the sun. With programmable timers, you can set the blinds to raise and lower even when you're away to block out sunlight and keep your home cooler in the summer.

Is It Worth the Money to Install Motorized Blinds?

Absolutely. After reading through all of the advantages of motorized blinds, you'd be crazy to think it was a waste! Motorized blinds and shades provide you with the privacy, convenience, and comfort you deserve. What are you waiting for?
