Let’s talk about what you get from a motorized and automated window shade system: Convenience, energy savings and privacy. An automated shade system operates your shade and drapery from a single control. It is used to manage your window coverings in multiple spaces and for various needs and includes both manual and automatic control options. The convenience is not having to raise and lower the shades yourself – a task in a large residence. You get energy savings because the system is programmed to raise and lower based on the sun to either add sunlight and warmth during the winter or to keep the hot sun out during the summer. Privacy comes from having the shades go down in bedrooms and baths when they are occupied or as night arrives. You can see out, but outsiders can not see in.
Equally important is clutter - or the lack of it. Instead of a row of old light switches and shade remote controls, a single keypad can control all light throughout your home and your motorized shades. You can complement interior décor with sophisticated, intuitive controls, and create the perfect scene with a single button press. Keypads are available in a variety of styles and finishes and customizable to fit your needs. Choose from a palette of exquisite metal and finishes to enhance any interior.

It’s been 50 years since we opened our doors. During these 50 years, we’ve built thousands of systems including high-end audio, theaters, smart homes and lighting + shade systems. That’s a track record virtually unmatched in the industry. From our decades specifying and installing the world’s most fabulous and exotic equipment in the finest homes in the tri-state region, we’ve seen and collaborated with the best interior designers. We guide you in selecting the right shade style, fabrics, blackouts, drapery, motorization and even HVAC solutions to ensure optimal climate control and comfort in your home. Then we carefully work with you to program operation to fit how you live.

Your room is your most important component and determinant in when you want sunlight, interior light or both. Your window coverings and lighting control work in tandem. Is there artwork? Large windows or few? How are the seating arrangements? Are you relaxing with a TV, or is there a working, reading or cooking area? For bedrooms… let’s illuminate each side of the bed independently with a narrow footprint, low glare fixture, in addition to full-on lighting for cleaning and organizing. Shades rise slowly based on your waking time. The décor, activity and blend of natural and interior light all come into play. The room is the canvas and the illumination are the brushstrokes in creating a work of art. The look and feel of your home is created by natural light from the sun and interior lighting from your fixtures. LED lighting and automated shades give you more choices than ever before. Each part affects the illumination you see and how your room appears.
