At Pacific Shutters and Shades, we know that outfitting hard-to-reach windows can seem like a difficult task. Whether they are above a staircase or are serving as a skylight, these tricky spaces require special window coverings that can easily be repositioned. But, due to their inconvenient locations, manually repositioning your hard-to-reach shades likely won't cut it. This is one place where automation comes into play.

At our showroom in Carlsbad, California, our friendly staff can help you learn more about Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation and more impressive motorization systems so that you can learn the ins and outs of automatic window treatments and include them in your home in ways that work best for you.

One of the standout benefits of PowerView® Automation is that there are several control methods. The handheld Pebble® Remote Control can be utilized anywhere inside your home, which makes it easy to reduce a glare on your television right from your sofa. The remote provides the opportunity to motorize up to six groups of window coverings at one time, so you can quickly and efficiently brighten up an entire space with just the press of a button. This can be particularly useful if guests are about to arrive or if you want to create a sunny space while working from home.

If you are more tech-friendly, consider utilizing the PowerView® App. After downloading it onto your tablet or smartphone, this application will present a range of interesting options. For starters, you will be able to create customized room scenes that are tailored to fit your daily schedule. As this feature combines presets for various windows, you can always count on your window coverings to move to the desired location without any additional effort from you. This means that you can always create the ambiance you want.

When it comes to operation, there are endless possibilities. For example, this system makes it easy to schedule the movement of your shades so that they sync up with the sunrise or sunset in your particular location. So, if you want your window coverings to lift in the morning or lower in the evening, both goals are certainly attainable. Plus, if you have a specific schedule you like to keep, tune your custom shades into your natural flow. The PowerView® app allows you to customize when and where your shades open and close throughout the day.

Speaking of the PowerView® App, once you are inside, you can even customize the look and feel of the application itself. Browse the fun activity icons and color options in order to create easily identifiable presets. As you can see, there is certainly more to this Hunter Douglas offering than may initially meet the eye.

One of the standout benefits of automation is that it will bring cordless operation to your residence. As a result, children and pets can enjoy a safe environment free from dangling cords. On top of that, the PowerView® also features a concealed battery pack or you can have them wired into your home’s electrical system. Our team knows all the tricks to perfect your installation process.
