Benefits of Manual Shades
From traditional roller and Honeycomb shades to Venetian blinds, manual window coverings have adorned homes for decades. In addition to their easy operation and maintenance, what are the pros of manual window shades?
- If you have a limited budget, manual shades are often the more affordable option. Motorized window shades that need to be hardwired require professional installation by an electrician.
- You can choose from a variety of fabrics to match your existing decor – or bring your own!
- Simple functionality with a pull chain or cord.
In rooms where your only goal is to reduce sun glare or completely block out natural light, manual shades are a great choice.
Benefits of Motorized Shades
Are you constantly getting up to adjust the window shades, whether it be in your kitchen, living room or home office? Motorized window shades take the work out of lifting and lowering the shades! Control the amount of sunshine from a remote or your smartphone – you can even enable a sun sensor that automatically reacts to the amount of sun filtering in. Beyond their convenience, what are some other advantages of motorized window shades?
- Fast: Raise or lower the shades in a matter of seconds!
- Quiet: Their virtually silent operation will not disturb anyone.
- Integration: Easy to pair with your lighting control system.
The cost of motorized window shades is not one size fits all. A motorized drapery track that plugs into the wall may be more budget-friendly than the hardwiring process.
