Motorized Window Covering

Motorized window shades are battery-operated window shades popular for their reliability and low power consumption. Thus they are affordable and very practical.
Such window shades are generally used in several areas in homes such as master bedrooms. Apart from that, they also find a place in home theaters to prevent light from external sources from coming in. Using motorized shades in large homes is much more convenient when compared to manually operated window shades.
Apart from convenience, security is another reason people tend to go in for motorized window shades. Motorized window shades can be prearranged to go up and down at fixed timings to make the house appear occupied. Sensors can trigger the shades to open when movement is detected outside.




They can be used to protect furnishings and pieces of art from fading due to over-exposure to sunlight and ultraviolet rays. In such cases motorized shades are triggered by light sensors to close automatically. Motorized semi-transparent shades that allow only a part of the light are invaluable for glare control, room darkening and protecting the room from harsh sunlight.
Motorized shades find uses in baths especially for unreachable windows over whirlpool-style bathtubs. They are also very handy for blocking out sunlight from skylights. The absence of strings makes the window shades childproof.
On hot days, motorized window shades can help to cool the room and vice-versa. Some window shades are designed to trap warm or cold air, thus providing insulation for your home.
