Adding Smart Shades to a New or Existing Home
One of the best things about modern smart shades is that you do not need to plan for them during construction, they work just as well in a home you already live in. Whether you are building new or upgrading, here is how to add motorized shades to any home, with no wiring headaches.
No wiring means no barriers
The old worry with motorized shades was wiring, running power to each window during construction. Modern systems like Hunter Douglas PowerView solved that with rechargeable battery power, so there is no electrician and no walls to open. That single fact means you can add smart shades to any home, new or 30 years old, without a renovation.
Smart shades in new construction
If you are building, it is a great time to plan smart shades into the whole home for a consistent, fully automated result from day one. You can dress every window at once, set up scenes and schedules across the house, and move into a home that already manages its own light and heat. Doing it with the rest of your window coverings is efficient and cohesive.
Retrofitting an existing home
Already living in your home? No problem. Battery-powered smart shades install exactly like regular custom shades, we measure, they are made to your windows, and we install them, so you can motorize one room or the whole house whenever you are ready. There is no disruption, no construction, and no need to have planned for it years ago.
Start small or go whole-home
You do not have to do everything at once. Many people start by motorizing the windows that matter most, the tall great-room glass, the media room, the primary bedroom, and add more over time, all on the same app and system. Or do the whole home in one project for full automation. The system scales to your pace and budget.
