Create the Perfect Scenes with Motorized Shades

Let Your Smart Home Manage Daylight & Privacy

Sunlight. Breathtaking in its beauty, it enhances a home’s interior by streaming through windows and providing a layer of ambient lighting. Unfortunately, as with most things in life, this beautiful light comes with its challenges. Sunlight includes damaging ultraviolet rays that can harm and discolor furniture, flooring, photographs, and artwork. 

And so, when diffuse sunlight turns into direct sunlight, we tend to close our shades, leaving them there until the next day when we open them at sunrise. According to a study by the U.S. Department of Energy, about 75% of people leave their shades in one position throughout the day.

The benefit is that lowered shades enhance our privacy, particularly at night. The downside is that we miss out on the beauty of a full moon, cityscapes, and our landscape lights, some so stunning they look like a picture when framed by our windows.

Fortunately, there is an answer. At HomeTroniX, we create the perfect scenes with motorized shades programmed to set the desired mood with one touch. Let’s explore how an integrated shading system changes everything in Little Rock, AR.

Setting the Scene

In a smart home, scenes are programmed settings that let you manage multiple smart devices at the same time. By pressing a button on a keypad or tapping an icon on a touchscreen, you set into motion a chain of events. 

At HomeTroniX, we customize these scenes for each client, providing an effortless approach to streamlining their daily routines and preferences. The following represent some of the most popular that incorporate motorized window coverings. 

• Good Morning: Tap ‘Good Morning,’ and your shades rise, welcoming the first hint of light. Simultaneously, certain lights in the bedrooms, kitchen, and hallway illuminate, coming to life in the same color and intensity as the sun outside your windows. The ‘It’s a Great Day’ playlist streams in high-fidelity splendor through in-ceiling speakers, the climate has adjusted, and the coffee is made.

Is there a better way to wake up in the morning? Hard to imagine.

• Entertain: Many people use this scene in different manners. Some want the window coverings to open, revealing their enchanting oasis that appears in the evening. At the same time, the lights transform into shades of coral, lapis, and Tuscan sun. The ‘Entertain’ playlist streams throughout the home and into the vast reaches of your outdoor area. And the doors unlock to welcome your guests.
• Away: When the last person leaves the house for the day, they press the ‘Away’ button. This prompts the lights to dim, the shades to lower, and the AV equipment to turn off. It also sets the alarm and locks the doors. Your home is secured with just one touch.
• Good Night: In much the same way as when you leave, you put your smart home to sleep when you press Good Night.
