Windows that stretch from floor to ceiling are not uncommon in today’s homes and apartments. While undeniably gorgeous, they can make you feel like you’re living in a fishbowl. Quality window treatments offer both protection from sunlight and privacy from prying eyes. Now, with the advent of power window treatments, you have all that at the push of a button!
Convenience
Virtually everything is automated these days, so why not window treatments? Now you can open and close bedroom draperies or blinds from the comfort of your bed. You can eliminate the glare on your television by closing your living room window treatments with a remote control.
Safety
In a 30 year period, several hundred kids and pets are injured or killed in accidents involving cords from draperies or blinds – often when a caregiver is only one room away. Automated window treatments eliminate that very real threat.
Security
You can even program your window treatments to simulate presence in your home when you’re not there. Blinds or curtains that are programmed to open in the morning and close in the evening make it look like you’re home – just the same way that programmed lighting can.
Protect Your Furnishings
You can program your window treatments to automatically close during the sunniest part of the day. This ensures that your furniture, carpeting, floors and artwork don’t sustain damage from prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Beauty and Elegance
If you have a bank of windows, it can be difficult to raise blinds by hand and create a uniform look. With motorized window treatments, they’ll raise (or lower) simultaneously in one fluid motion to the precise position you want.
Power window treatments have long been an overlooked smart home technology, but that’s rapidly changing. Once you’ve experienced the ease and convenience of automated shades, blinds or draperies, you’ll never look back!
