Motorized Shading for Homes on Martha’s Vineyard, MA

Effortlessly control light, views, and privacy with silent, intuitive motorized window treatments.

Why Manual Shades Don’t Cut It on the Vineyard

Are you tired of constantly adjusting your shades to eliminate glare? Is the sun fading your vintage furniture and high-end artwork? Manual window treatments make it hard to keep up with changing sunlight. Especially when avoiding glare from those large windows facing the beautiful ocean view. Motorized shading is a great sunlight control solution. 

Automated window treatments let you shade your Martha’s Vineyard views without losing them. When integrated with a smart home automation system, shades will also help you manage privacy, climate, and even enhance your overall security. And don’t worry—with many automated blinds and draperies to choose from, they’re the perfect blend of ambiance, aesthetics, and functionality. Plus, quiet motorized shades work on command without disrupting your sleep or activities.

The Answers to Your Top Shading Questions

What are motorized shades, and how do they work?
Motorized shades are automated window treatments that don’t require manual control. They include a motor (don’t worry it’s hidden from view within its bracket) so you can manage them via voice commands, schedules, mobile apps or keypads.
Can I Automate My Existing Window Coverings?
Yes! If you have fabrics that you love already, Lutron can integrate motors into their brackets to give them all the functionality of motorized shades.
What Brands of Motorized Shading Do You Offer?
We primarily work with Crestron and Lutron motorized shading. Together, they offer a wide range of fabrics, models, and control options to match your needs. Both offer quiet motorized shades that are ideal for any room.
Can They Be Scheduled to Open or Close Based on Sunlight?
Yes. This can be done in two ways. We can set shades to open and close based on the local sunrise and sunset times. We can also incorporate photo sensors that will close shades when sunlight hits them directly.
Can I Control Shades Remotely While Off-Island?
You’ll have access to your shades on a mobile app through Lutron, Control4, Savant, or Crestron. That means that as long as you have an internet or data connection, you can see their status and make any needed changes.
Do You Work With Interior Designers or Custom Builders?
We have years of experience coordinating custom shading systems with interior designers and builders. We’ll work with your interior designer to match fabrics and models to your decor preferences and with builders to keep any needed wiring hidden within walls and ceilings.
