Key Benefits
Imagine walking into a room and adjusting the light with the simple press of a button—no cords to tangle, no manual reaching, just instant comfort. That is exactly what these Motorised Roller Shades deliver. Designed for everyday home use, this custom-sized window treatment combines the durability of 100 Percent polyester fiber with the luxury of automated convenience. Whether you are looking to create a media room, a nursery, or just want to cut down on your energy bills, these shades block out harsh sunlight and UV rays while providing total privacy.
Why choose this over a standard blind? Because it is engineered for a seamless life. The motor is nearly silent, the installation is straightforward, and the blackout fabric ensures your sleep isn’t disturbed by early morning light. You get precise light control, a clean aesthetic, and a product built to last.
Effortless Automation and Safety
Because these blinds are motorised, they eliminate the safety hazards associated with dangling cords, making them an excellent choice for homes with children or pets. You can easily integrate them into your smart home system or use the provided remote, giving you control from across the room.
Custom Fit and Premium Fabric
We know that windows come in odd sizes. That is why we offer custom sizing to ensure a perfect fit, eliminating light gaps on the sides. The 100 Percent polyester fiber fabric is not only soft to the touch but also resistant to fading and warping, ensuring your investment looks great for years.
Real Customer Feedback
“I installed these in my living room because the afternoon sun was destroying my furniture. The motorised feature is the best part—I set them on a timer to close during the hottest part of the day. The blackout effect is truly 100 percent; I tested it on a sunny Saturday morning and the room was pitch black. Installation was easier than I expected, and the fabric feels high-quality and thick.”

FAQ
How do I measure my window for a custom size?
Measure the width and drop of your window frame. For inside mounts, provide the exact top width and top drop. For outside mounts, add 4 inches to the width and 2 inches to the drop to ensure full coverage. Our team will cut the roller and fabric precisely to your specifications.
Does the motor require a special electrical outlet?
No. The shades come with a standard power adapter that plugs into a regular wall outlet. If you prefer a hardwired look, we offer a low-voltage wiring option that can be connected to a standard junction box by a licensed electrician.
Can I control these shades with my smartphone?
Yes, if you purchase the optional Wi-Fi hub, you can control these shades via an app on your iOS or Android device, or even use voice commands with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.
What happens if the power goes out?
Because the system uses a battery backup option (available for purchase), the shades will retain their position during a power outage. If you choose the plug-in model without battery backup, the shades will stop where they are and resume operation once power is restored.
Is the blackout fabric washable?
We do not recommend machine washing the motorised roller. To clean, simply use a soft, dry cloth or a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust. For stains, spot clean with a mild detergent and water, then air dry immediately.
Honest note: The motor housing is a bit bulkier than a standard manual roller, so you will need about 5 inches of depth at the top of the window for the bracket clearance.
