Controlling all of your shades from a wall switch may become as ordinary as controlling your lighting from a wall switch. Many people don't even remember when ceiling lights were operated by pull-chains at the light fixtures. Do you?

Similarly, hand-held remote controls for window treatments may become as commonplace as remote controls for televisions.

The window treatments that lend themselves most readily to motorization are draperies and roller shades. The choices available for convenient operation are fascinating. You can have one switch per shade, one switch for a group of shades, or one switch for all your shades. You can have presets programmed into your shade controls so that the shades will open to exactly the height that you want them to, with just the push of a button. You can even control your window treatments with a timer or sun sensor so that they will operate for maximum energy efficiency or comfort whether you are present or not!

If you're looking for the most seamless integration of your shade controls with your audio-visual system or home security system, we can provide that as well. The electronics are sophisticated, but the operation is simple.

Cellular shades and wood alloy horizontal blinds can be motorized as well. (The blind motor operates the tilt mechanism only.) Both of these products are ideal for home solutions because, being operated by battery packs in the headrail and a remote control in your hand, they do not require any special wiring.
