Motorization/Special
Applications
What is Motorization?
Motorization is the fastest growing option in window coverings. Shades, drapes and other window coverings can be placed on timers, activated by the sun and outside temperature, operated by switch or remote control, or linked into your complete home automation system. The successful implementation of a custom motorization application requires advanced expertise to help you find the option that’s right for you. The window treatment experts at Blinds & Designs have been designing and installing motorization systems throughout the San Francisco Bay Area for more than 15 years. You can count on us for all your motorization needs!
 What are the Benefits of Motorization?
Window treatment automation combines the best of both worlds – style and convenience. Here are just a few benefits you can enjoy with a motorization system from Blinds & Designs.
- Eliminate unsightly cords and wands.
- Reduce mechanical challenges such as worn controls.
- Cover and easily manage window coverings in hard to reach and irregularly shaped openings such as skylights.
- Improve energy efficiency of your window treatments.
- Increase reliability with motorized systems that often perform better and longer than mechanical devices.
What are Your Motorization Options?
There’s never been a better time to have a motorization system installed in your home or business: motors available today are relatively quiet and unobtrusive, and advanced motorization systems can control your window treatments in creative and practical ways to improve the comfort of your home or office as well as improving energy efficiency. Our range of motorized solutions includes hard-wired and battery-operated choices for remote operation.
Some unique features of our motorization solutions include:
- Complete integration with your existing automation systems, including lighting, security cameras, outdoor screens, AV systems and more.
- Compatibility with Lutron, Creston, Control 4, Zigbee systems and more.
- Upgraded control panels that make using your automation system a snap.
- Wireless control from your iPhone or iPad.
What is the SolarTrac system?
Blinds & Designs is proud to offer the innovative SolarTrac system by MechoShade. This unique daylighting system is perfect for corporate offices where efficiency, light control, and the view are all important. SolarTrac uses roof-mounted radiometers to monitor the sun’s brightness in real time and integrate with a motorization system that adjusts window shades to various positions to provide the perfect amount of light. When the sun is shining directly in a window, the system maximizes the comfort level of the inside area while still offering a view to the outside.
This system is one of the most innovative daylighting control operations available, and we’re excited to offer it to our San Francisco Bay Area clients. Contact us for more details and a free consultation.
