The Benefits of Motorized Drapery Rods

With wireless technology already controlling your home’s lighting, security system, and ambient temperature, why not add your window treatments to the list? When your draperies can be operated at the touch of a button from the comfort of your couch, your system is complete! Motorized drapery rods have been used in commercial applications for a while, but are now being seen more and more in residential settings. Whether you’re looking to add convenience or simply upgrade your home’s design, motorized rods can make a great addition to any space at a more affordable price than ever.

What are Motorized Draperies? 

Motorized rods look like any other traversing drapery rod, but with a wireless remote, you have complete control over the movement of your draperies or curtains. There’s no bulky housing with modern motorized curtain rods. Instead, an ultra-slim, powerful motor is discreetly tucked behind your drapery panels, allowing you to open and close the curtains at the touch of a button from anywhere in the room. Additionally, many modern home designs now incorporate large, floor-to-ceiling windows as well as out-of-reach window features. While these window designs are often stunning; they can also create a daily inconvenience when paired with manually adjusted curtain rods. With a motorized drapery rod, you can also adjust the length of your drapes for different occasions. This is perfect for those who want to change their home’s lighting at the press of a button as the day progresses: letting in natural light during the day and providing privacy at night.

Very Wide Windows:

It can be a difficult quest to cover very wide windows. Pinch-pleated drapes or Ripplefold drapery panels for a truly spectacular panoramic window must be mounted on heavy-duty curtain rods and can be annoying to open and close by pulling—and pulling—on a cord. Motorized rods make fast and effortless work of a wide bank of draperies with just the click of a button. Motorized drapery rods are a luxurious and convenient solution for any window but almost a necessity for large or inconveniently placed windows. With the ability to be operated with the touch of a button from anywhere in the room, you can now enjoy complete control over your window regardless of size or placement.

Very Tall Windows:

Tall windows are dramatic and beautiful with full-length drapes, but the height means more fabric and more weight. If you want to open and close your tall draperies for light control or privacy, it can require a lot of brute strength to pull on the cord control. Motorized curtain rods are strong enough for years of daily use, and offer the ease of one-touch remote operation—much easier on your arms and your patience! So many modern designs are not complete without tall, floor-to-ceiling windows and these gorgeous windows can present difficulties in daily use without the ease and convenience of motorized curtain rods.

Smart Home Solutions:

Whether you are looking to put the finishing touches on a smart home design or are in the initial stages of modernizing your current home design; motorized drapery rods are the perfect solution to elevate your interior design. With more and more home appliances and utilities being controlled with the ease of remote control; it only makes sense to extend the same convenience to your window treatments. Motorized curtain rods provide that convenience and luxury, while being easy on the wallet. They are a great addition to any smart home design. With motorized drapery rods integrated into your home, you can control the ambiance of any room with just one touch.
