Protect Your Interiors & Valuables
While this feature might be more obvious than others, it’s still worth noting just how impactful automated shading is for your home’s interiors. Whether you program your shades to lower and raise on a schedule or have them automatically adjust via photosensors detecting where the sun is in the sky, you can easily bask in gentle lighting or shield yourself from intense sun rays. Your shading will protect your delicate interiors, valuables, antiques, and artwork and prevent fading over the years, letting you enjoy natural lighting without ever putting your interiors at risk!
One-Touch Control for Every Fixture
With motorized window treatments from leading brands in the industry like Lutron, you can seamlessly integrate lighting control with your motorized shading with no issue at all. Using the same smart devices – such as your smartphone, touchscreen tablet, or wall keypad – you can manage every single shade and lighting fixture throughout your property. Simply tap a button, and you can lower shades, brighten up rooms, or turn off every device at once before bedtime. It's hassle-free control at any moment, right in your hands.
Improved Smart Security
Motorized shades and integrated lighting can enhance your smart security system overall as well. For example, when you’re ready to leave the house, you can set your security system to “Away” and have your lighting and shading operate via a “mockupancy” setting that has these technologies working as though you were home.
With these solutions functioning per usual, potential intruders are fooled into thinking that your home is occupied, and they'll steer clear. You can return to an untouched home every time, and rest assured that your space is preventing break-ins while you’re away.
