Sunshade Electric Roller Blind – Smart Window Treatments
Adding motorized blinds to your home gives it a luxurious feel. These window treatments are available in a variety of colors and designs. However, they aren’t cheap.
Several factors can affect the price of smart blinds, including their customization, size and smart home compatibility. If you’re ready to add these luxury window treatments to your home, let us connect you with a local expert.
Easy to Operate
Whether you want your shades to open in the morning when it’s time to wake up, or close them when it’s time to sleep, motorized window treatments make it easy. These smart options operate without cords and can be controlled via a mobile app, voice commands or remote. Depending on your preferences, you can also sync motorized blinds with other smart products to create scenes that work together.
Motorized shades can be powered by a rechargeable Sunshade Electric Roller Blind battery, solar panel or plug-in adapter. Choose a solution that suits your lifestyle: choose a battery option for the ultimate convenience, or go with a wired option to get the best performance and compatibility with other smart home devices.
The most common solution is a wireless system that uses a communication protocol to carry command and control messages. This may be a standard protocol like Z-Wave (Grover), ZigBee (Lutron) or Clear Connect RF (Serena by Lutron). The Shade Store also offers Power over Ethernet (PoE) motorized shades that use ethernet cables to transmit electricity and command/control messages for the highest performance and compatibility with other systems.
Smart blinds can be controlled using a mobile app or a smart hub with built-in integrations like Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. The smartest options, however, pair the latest technology with top-notch craftsmanship. Yoolax Motorized Shades, for example, are a top pick because they are stylish, affordable, operate without a hub and work with several voice assistants.
Easy to Clean
For a window treatment that requires very little maintenance, roller shades are the way to go. They’re easy to clean and resist stains well. Simply sweeping the slats with a soft brush attachment or wiping them down with a damp cloth keeps them looking fresh. Additionally, they’re resistant to moisture and humidity, which is a big plus in kitchens and bathrooms.
Coolaroo outdoor roller sun shades are a great option for any patio, porch or pergola as they provide shade from the harsh rays of the sun. These shades are made from a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) knit fabric which blocks up to 90% of harmful UV rays, helping protect indoor and outdoor furniture and decor.
These outdoor blinds also feature a wand operation, making them easy to use and simple to customize. You can choose to add a cornice or valance, which helps cover up the roller hardware and creates a more streamlined look. You can also choose a cordless lift, which eliminates the need for tangled cords and is safer for children and pets.
Lastly, you can motorize your shades to give them the ultimate convenience factor, allowing you to raise or lower them with the press of a button. Serena by Lutron’s smart blinds are the perfect option for this, as they can be controlled via their Caseta switches and dimmers, and even have a follow-the-sun Sunshade Electric Roller Blind feature that automatically adjusts the tilt of the slats to regulate light based on the sun’s position.
Easy to Maintain
With their sleek, simple look and wide range of on-trend fabrics to match any decor, roller shades are the ultimate in easy-to-maintain window treatments. With a variety of operational upgrades to simplify control and make raising and lowering your shades at the touch of a button even easier, they’re a smart choice for any home.
Light Control
Unlike curtains and drapes, the sheer, light filtering and blackout options of our roller shades allow you to fully customize the amount of natural light you want in any room. With precise controls, you can easily adjust your blinds to the perfect position at any time of day, ensuring you always get exactly the right amount of sunlight.
If you’re looking for an added layer of comfort and security, you can also add our PowerView(r) Automation to your roller shades, allowing them to move automatically according to your schedule. Swap your alarm for a gentle wake-up, schedule the kitchen shades to open while you’re making breakfast and set them all to close at a predetermined time in the evening. With just a tap on your smartphone, voice command or a connected smart device, you can create the ideal home environment every day.
Easy to Customize
Customize your blinds to match your home’s style. Many options for lift styles, headrails and motorization are available to create a smart window treatment solution that meets your needs and tastes.
There are also a variety of opacity levels to choose from, from light-filtering to room darkening and blackout shades. Some are designed to prevent fades caused by UV rays and mold and mildew growth. Some have a clean, streamlined aesthetic that makes them a beautiful addition to any space.
Smart blinds that have been motorized are easy to integrate with your smart home. You can use your voice or a remote to set them to open and close as you like. You can also schedule your smart blinds to gradually let in sunlight as you wake up or turn off automatically when you go to bed.
Some models of smart blinds work with several voice assistants, including Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Google Assistant. Others are compatible with the latest smart home standard, Thread, which offers better reliability than Bluetooth and faster response times. And there are smart blinds that you can hardwire into your home if you’re interested in a permanent installation option.
