Countless homeowners have realized the value of automatic window coverings. These integrated systems do far more than block light; they add comfort, efficiency, and sophistication to homes and businesses.

At Interior Views Design Center, our team loves improving our clients’ lifestyles when we demonstrate these systems. Learn why they are such a unique and useful option for Jersey Shore spaces.

How Do Automated Shades, Blinds, and Shutters Work?

Through radiofrequency communication and Bluetooth® technology, your shades communicate with a small, integrated motor inside the window covering frame, and the wireless signal tells that motor how to move the fabric or slats, with no visible cords in sight.

Raise, lower, or tilt the covering with remote, app, or voice commands. You can also program adjustments in advance, so your blinds, shades, or shutters respond to your schedule without any manual effort.

Beyond Basic: Advantages of Motorized Window Treatments 

Motorized blinds, shades, and shutters do more than control light:

• Energy Efficiency: Programming treatments to close during peak afternoon sun reduces solar heat gain, so your air conditioning won’t work as hard. In winter, closed shades at night act as an insulating layer, keeping rooms more comfortable.
• Child and Pet Safety: The Consumer Product Safety Commission has long flagged corded blinds as a strangulation hazard for young children and pets. Motorized window treatments eliminate cords, making rooms safer and cleaner looking. You won’t worry about tangled cords or catching the cords in your vacuum cleaner, either.
• Home Security: Program automated window coverings to open and close at scheduled times to make it look like someone’s home while you’re away. It’s a low-effort deterrent for would-be intruders.
• Convenience: Control every blind, shade, or shutter in your home from one app, a remote, or a voice command. Imagine not having to get out of bed if you forgot to close the blinds downstairs. Nice!
• Accessibility: Motorized treatment windows are a blessing for anyone with limited mobility, arthritis, or difficulty reaching high or awkward windows. One tap or voice command handles what would otherwise require physical effort.
