Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our motorization solutions.

Can you motorize any type of window covering?

Our solutions work with many manually operated roller shades, horizontal blinds, fabric roman shades, woven wood roman shades and cellular shades. Contact us for a compatibility check.

What if my window coverings are not operating properly now, can I still motorize them?

It depends on the specific issue. In many cases, we can repair or replace parts during the motorization process. Contact us for an assessment of your specific situation.

Is the upgrade performed in my home?

Yes. In most cases we are able to perform the upgrade in your home. However, in some situations, we will need to take your window covering back to our shop to retrofit. We will identify this during the consultation.

Can I purchase the components from you and upgrade them myself?

No. The exact components that are needed to upgrade from manual to motorized are difficult to determine during the virtual consultation. We identify the basics and bring a wide variety of adapters with us to make sure we can upgrade them on-site.

How long does installation take?

Most installations can be completed in less than 30 minutes per window covering.

Do I need special wiring in my home?

No, our solutions are battery-powered which are recharged via USB connection. Some shades can be hard wired so you never have to recharge them. In certain situations, a solar panel is also an option to keep the battery charged.

How often do I have to recharge the shades?

Depending on the size of the shade, you will have to plug them in for 6-8 hours every 10-18 months.
