Motorized Window Treatments – Safe and Convenient

Window Coverings Toronto is proud to offer motorized blinds and shade for precise and convenient control over your window coverings. These remote-controlled window treatments are perfect for skylights, transom windows, bay windows and other hard-to-reach windows. 

These smart home solutions allow you to open and close your window treatments with the push of a button. In the past few years, they’ve become a popular addition to homes, making them smarter and more modern. 

Window Treatments: Why Go for Motorization?

The benefits of investing in motorized window coverings include:

1) Convenience 

If your home has many windows, especially large ones, then opening and closing their drapes and shades can seem daunting. With motorized window coverings, it’s easy to raise and lower them with the touch of a button. And you can schedule times to open and close them automatically. 

2) Energy Efficiency 

Installing motorized blinds and shades minimizes the amount of energy your HVAC system uses as they close automatically when the sun is at its brightest. Unique sensors can automatically adjust with the rising temperature, thus saving on energy bills. 

3) Safety 

Pesky tangled cords hanging from window shades are both unappealing and dangerous. Motorization means no unsightly cords posing a safety hazard for children and pets, and peace of mind knowing your little ones are safe. 

4) Enhanced Privacy 

Are your windows close to your neighbour’s house? Can passersby peer through your windows? Motorized window coverings are the best way to boost privacy. 

5) Security

Automated shades and blinds can deter thieves and intruders by making it look as if you’re home, even if you’re on holiday or a business trip. All you need to do is schedule their operation while you’re away. 

6) Value Addition

Buyers prefer buying smart homes with advanced technology that make the space more functional and visually appealing. As a result, motorized window coverings have become a desirable addition as they increase property resale values.
