What are Motorized Drapes?
In the world of curtains, motorized drapes are one of the most convenient styles. They are curtains that are opened and closed with a motor, not manually. Motorized drapes are powered by a battery or plug-in engine to move the drapes at the press of a button. It is even more remarkable that the engine can not be seen as it is located behind the curtains, so the homeowners open and close their curtains just like a magic trick.

How are motorized drapes convenient?
When you have motorized drapes, you do not have to move an inch to move your curtains, which makes them the most convenient option out there. You can lean back and give directions to your automated motorized curtains using your phone instead of trying to find the perfect look manually.
That’s not all, though. Motorized drapes give homeowners the opportunity to set a timer for openings and closings of their curtains.
Do motorized drapes help with security purposes?
Every type of curtain serves a security purpose as it protects the house from being seen from outside and provides privacy. However, motorized drapes get beyond this ordinary advantage. Thanks to your motorized drapes, you can control the time when your curtains are opened or closed while you are not home.
This means that you will not have to worry that your absence will be noticed by outsiders while you are away from home for a couple of days or weeks. You can open your curtains using your phone in the morning and close them at night, just like you are there, or you will not even have to bother thinking of the house by setting a timer instead of leaving the lights on while exiting the house (which would make for a higher electric bill later!)
How do motorized drapes make a house more energy efficient?
We should clarify that motorized drapes consume minimum energy. Therefore, they do not make your house energy inefficient. On the contrary, as you can determine the time your curtains are opened and closed, you can make use of the sunlight in the most efficient way during the day. Similarly, you can close your curtains while away from your home to reduce the sunlight on summer days.
What are the advantages of the smart home integration feature?
Thanks to all the advancements in tech, our homes are getting smarter every day. You can have motorized drapes that are connected to the smart home system and give you the opportunity to control when your curtains are opened or closed while you are not home.
