Benefits of Motorized
Window Shades
The most desirable benefits of motorized window shades and blinds are their convenience and precise operation. You can easily move shades up or down and tilt or traverse sheers throughout your entire home with the click of a battery powered remote – or better yet, use the PowerView® App on your smart phone or tablet to schedule customized Scenes that automatically move your shades when and as you prefer. Already living in a smart home? PowerView® is compatible with Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Nest; as well as Apple® IOS and Android™.

Convenience is just the beginning, motorized window shades are also energy efficient, secure, and child friendly. Most importantly, Hunter Douglas motorized shades covers your motorized components under a five year warranty; which is much longer than the typical one year warranty on most electronics.

Motorized Window Treatment Options

Duette® Honeycomb Shades

Today, more than ever before, it’s important for consumers to make eco-friendly purchases and conserve resources. When you choose motorized blinds, you are enhancing your home’s energy efficiency in a few ways.

Approximately 30% of your utility costs are the result of air coming through windows. Window coverings in general provide a layer of insulation, and options like Duette® Honeycomb Shades provide significantly more insulation than any other window treatment. Their unique cellular makeup traps air to keep your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter. This collection also offers improved acoustics as these shades absorb up to 70% of sound energy.

By adding PowerView® Automation to your honeycomb shades, you’ll have automatic shades to open and close at your convenience even if you aren’t home. Your electric blinds can open at midday during winter to allow sunlight to warm your home, and close at midday in summer to keep out the heat.

Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades, motorized blinds, smart blinds, automatic blinds near Chicago, Illinois (IL)

Designer Roller Shades

Blinds without cords create a safer environment for young children and pets. Our Designer Roller Shades are the industry standard for roller shades with their easy operation and clean lines. This collection offers two shades in one: the first layer being a light-filtering sheer, and the second layer being a room-darkening opaque liner. Our roller shades also have one of the largest fabric selections with over 400 fabrics to choose from.

You can pair Designer Roller Shades with PowerView® motorization for light and privacy on your time. When fully raised, your shades will disappear into the headrail, leaving only the beautiful view to enjoy. Close your electric blinds from the comfort of your bed or couch with the PowerView® App or Pebble® Remote.

More Styling Options

PowerView® Automation is available with most Hunter Douglas window coverings. Use Silhouette® Window Shadings to reduce glare and gently diffuse incoming light. Add a subtle touch of sophistication to your dining room with Roman shades and timeless beauty to your bathroom with faux wood blinds. Woven Wood shadings are an easy way to bring an earthy, organic touch to any room.

Daylight on Demand

Each of your smart blinds will operate independently, giving you the option to set schedules for each room. Using the PowerView® App, you can set individual Scenes that will control your window treatments. For example, program your living room Scene for your blinds to open at 8 am and program your kitchen Scene for your shades to close at 9 am. Whatever your schedule, PowerView® Automation can make it happen. Your Hunter Douglas automated system can also integrate seamlessly with most smart home systems, allowing you to have your window coverings open or closed when a change in temperature is indicated. This option also allows voice-control when operated with a smart home system.

Wake every morning with natural sunlight. Scientific studies have shown that waking to natural light is the best way to start your day, and with motorized window treatments, you can. Set your location in the PowerView App, and your automatic blinds will open at sunrise. You’ll never have to be jarred awake by alarm clocks again!

Increased Home Security

Window treatments help provide security for your home by shielding the interior of your home from prying eyes on the outside. Criminals frequently memorize a target’s routine, and your closed blinds may alert them that you have left town. Your PowerView® automated blinds can be accessed from anywhere in the world via the Internet, so you can open and close your blinds at the usual times or switch it up to make it appear as though someone is home.

PowerView® Programming

Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation, motorized blinds, smart blinds, automatic blinds near Chicago, Illinois (IL)

Your automatic blinds can be paired with today’s most used smart home systems, including Apple HomeKit®, Amazon’s Alexa, and Google Home™. Imagine falling into bed after a long day and realizing your window shades are open. Now imagine saying, “Alexa, close the blinds,” instead of having to get back out of bed. Wouldn’t that be nice?

The PowerView® Hub stores settings and serves as a central point of control by using your home’s WiFi network. The Hub can interface with your smart thermostat, weather app, or home automation system.


If you prefer a dedicated handheld device, the Pebble® Remote is the perfect solution. The device is a contemporary take on the traditional TV remote and can effortlessly operate your window coverings. Use the “Favorite” button to set positions for each of the shades or blinds. To avoid misplacing your remote control, some people prefer a wall-mounted “Surface” remote.
