Frequently Asked Questions
How do motorized shades work?
Motorized shades use an integrated electric motor controlled via remote, mobile app, or voice assistants — no cords or chains, with greater convenience and safety.
What are the advantages over manual shades?
Convenience with remote operation, improved safety (no dangerous cords for children and pets), and scheduling that optimizes your home or office's energy efficiency.
Is motorized shade installation complicated?
Professional install is quick — about 30–60 minutes per window. Our technicians handle measurement, mounting, and final control system setup.
What maintenance do they require?
Minimal: periodic cleaning with a soft cloth and an annual battery check for wireless models. Most systems include a 5-year warranty and 10+ year lifespan.
Can they integrate with smart home systems?
Yes — we install Lutron, Somfy, and Automate by Rollease systems that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Control4, Savant, and Crestron.
