Motorized smart shades for Las Vegas homes

Shades That Work for You

Motorized shades aren't a luxury—in Las Vegas, they're one of the smartest energy investments you can make.

Sun Tracking

Shades adjust throughout the day based on the sun's actual position. East-facing windows close in the morning, west-facing in the afternoon. All calculated automatically by Home Assistant.

Energy Savings

Blocking direct sunlight before it heats your home reduces AC workload by 10-15%. In Las Vegas summers, that translates to real savings on every NV Energy bill.

Privacy Scheduling

Shades close automatically at sunset for instant privacy. Open at sunrise to let natural light in. Set custom schedules per room—bedroom shades stay closed until 8 AM.

Voice Control

"Alexa, close the living room shades." "Hey Google, open the bedroom blinds to 50%." Every shade responds to voice commands through Home Assistant.

UV Protection

Las Vegas UV exposure destroys furniture, flooring, and artwork. Automated shades protect your interior by blocking UV during peak hours without you lifting a finger.

Child Safety

No dangling cords. Motorized shades eliminate the cord hazard entirely. Clean lines, safe operation, and child-proof by design.

Built for the Desert

Las Vegas gets 294 sunny days a year. That's 294 days of intense UV, solar heat gain, and fading furniture. Smart shades handle it automatically.

Block Extreme Heat

When it's 115°F outside, west-facing windows turn your home into a greenhouse. Smart shades close before the afternoon sun hits, keeping your home cooler and reducing AC runtime significantly.

Protect Your Interior

Desert UV fades hardwood floors, bleaches furniture fabric, and damages artwork. Automated UV blocking during peak hours extends the life of everything in your home. Think of it as sunscreen for your furniture.

Cut AC Costs

Solar heat gain through windows accounts for up to 30% of cooling load. Smart shades that close before peak sun can cut your cooling costs by 10-15% on top of thermostat savings. The two work together.

Winter Optimization

In cooler months, shades open to let free solar heat in, reducing your heating bill. Home Assistant adjusts behavior by season automatically. Free warmth in winter, blocked heat in summer.

Automation That Makes Sense

Smart shades reach their full potential when connected to your thermostat, lighting, and Home Assistant. Here's what that looks like.

Peak Heat Blocking

Between 2-6 PM when the sun hammers west-facing windows, shades close automatically. Your thermostat adjusts too—less solar heat means less AC. When the sun drops, shades reopen.

Natural Light Balance

When shades close for heat or privacy, smart lights adjust to compensate. No sudden darkness—the lighting system fills in smoothly so you never notice the shade change.

Goodnight Routine

Say "Goodnight" and all shades close, lights dim, doors lock, thermostat drops to sleep temperature. One command. Everything handled.

Movie Mode

All shades drop, lights dim to 10%, and the room goes dark. Perfect blackout without getting up. Pause the movie and the lights come back up slightly.

Style Options

Smart doesn't mean sacrificing aesthetics. We install motorized shades in multiple styles to match your home's design.

Roller Shades

Clean, minimal design. Rolls up into a compact cassette at the top of the window. Available in blackout, light filtering, and solar screen fabrics. The most popular choice for modern homes.

Cellular Shades

Honeycomb construction traps air for superior insulation. The best option for energy efficiency in Las Vegas. Reduces heat transfer through windows better than any other shade type.

Roman Shades

Soft, elegant folds for a more traditional look. Motorized roman shades add warmth and sophistication to bedrooms and living rooms while providing full smart control.
