Benefits of Window Treatment Motorization
Window treatment motorization is the most talked about innovation in window treatments. With advances in wireless technologies, automation systems for your blinds and shades are getting easier to install and operate. At Altra Home Decor serving the Phoenix area, we specialize in a wide range of motorization options from hard-wired to battery operated solutions. Many varieties of blinds, shades, and drapery can be motorized. Often, we can add motorization kits to your existing window coverings. Other than just the sheer cool factor of window treatment motorization, ease of operation and energy conservation are the main benefits to automating your blinds and shades.

Some blinds and shades are very large, or in difficult to reach places such as up in skylights or behind bathtubs. Disabled people and the elderly may have trouble operating blinds and shades that are easy to operate for other people. Whatever your situation, automating your window fashions will bring added convenience to your daily life.
