Motorized Shading Overview

Want a smarter home with smarter window treatments? We can help you make it a reality!

Why Motorized Shades?

Motorized operation is the safest for children and pets, without cords that could present a safety/strangulation hazard. Oversized and out-of-reach windows and shades are easy to operate, and homes or businesses with a large number of windows will benefit from motorization with schedules, scenes, and even more control options. App-based control makes your home more energy-efficient, and allows control with your mobile phone or a voice assistant like Alexa.

Innovative Openings has specialized in motorized shading products for decades. We are proud to feature control and automation systems from Somfy and Hunter Douglas, as well as an exceptional purchase and support experience.

Create Your Best Lifestyle

Because smart shades lack lift cords, they’re a safer option than shades with exposed cords

Home Security & Safety

  • Create the illusion that someone is home by automating shade control while you’re away.
  • Integrate smart shades with smart security cameras, doorbells, and alarm systems to enhance your home’s security
  • Automate privacy control with smart shades to ensure greater safety and comfort while you’re at home.

Voice control

  • Hands free shade operation
  • Operate shades when your mobile device is not nearby
  • Activate shading scenes using only your voice

Energy-efficiency

  • Reduce energy use and costs
  • Automate shades to move according to sunrise and sunset
  • Coordinate with heating, cooling, and other home systems for maximum efficiency
  • Maximize passive warming in the winter

Create your best lifestyle

  • Make your home a comfortable, relaxing retreat with your automated preferences throughout the day
  • Spend your time the way you want to rather than opening and closing shades at different times of day
  • Enhance wellness by managing daytime light, adjusting light for weather conditions, and promoting darkness for better quality sleep.
  • Automate shades opening at a specified time each morning to make waking up more pleasant and natural.
