Roller shades have long been a popular window treatment as they offer a sleek, minimal look. Whether you’re using them to decorate your office or as a modern design option that allows for convenient light control in almost any space, when you raise a roller shade, you open your window to glorious views and stunning light.

Today, our team at Supershade South is delighted to discuss with you some of our favorite roller shade options and how adding motorization to your roller shades allows you to control your light and privacy with unparalleled convenience.

PowerView® Automation: Where To Start for Motorized Roller Shades

In June 2024, the Window Covering Manufacturers Association (WCMA) and Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) came together to regulate long and dangling cords on windows. PowerView® Automation by Hunter Douglas is an innovative technology that offers the benefits of cord-free control to your window treatments. You can easily control your light and privacy with the PowerView® app, the Pebble® remote, or via voice command when you pair your smart home system with the PowerView® Gateway.

Here are the benefits of Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation when combined with our favorite motorized roller shades.

• Safety: Since automation does away with the dangling cords, you won’t have to worry about harm that may occur if you have small children, pets, or vulnerable adults.
• Security: Plus, when you’re able to open and close your shades from wherever you are, it gives the appearance of occupancy and creates a safer feel for your home. You can have peace of mind when you are away by scheduling automatic shade openings and closings so your home appears lived-in to ward off unwanted intruders.
• Increased Home Value: Investing in motorized shades is well worth it in the long run. Whether you plan to refinance or sell your home in the future, potential buyers will see automated window treatments as an added benefit.

Designer Banded Shades, Also Known as Zebra Shades

Known for their alternating stripes of sheer and solid fabric bands, Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades are a unique combination of roller shades with the ease and convenience of blinds. Enjoy uncompromised privacy when the bands are closed. You can customize the open, sheer sections by different band heights and various shapes and opacities, as well as over 90 fabric and color options, so that you can create the views that satisfy your design. We can easily fit these shades to various door and window styles.
