Smart Blinds

Our automated window treatments work with home automation systems for a convenient solution to light control, privacy, and energy efficiency.

Smart blinds are just like regular blinds with one important difference–they connect to your home automation system, allowing you to remotely control blinds and even set schedules. The result? Stress-free blind operation that optimizes light, privacy, and energy efficiency based on your home and preferences. Choose Continental Blinds for your automated window treatments in Columbus and Westerville.

How Do Smart Blinds Work?

Automated window treatments, or smart blinds, work via a motor that is hidden behind the blind’s roller. The motor provides electricity, which is used to put down or pull up the blind. Automated blinds can be powered via a battery, traditional wiring, or even solar power.

By connecting to your home’s Wi-Fi, your blinds can integrate with your home automation system, such as Alexa or Google Home. With just the touch of a button or a voice command, you can open, close, or adjust your blinds to create the perfect ambiance.

Benefits of Automated Window Treatments

  • Create customized settings. Have your blinds lower with personalized settings for events, such as dinner or a movie night, to create the perfect ambiance.
  • Enhance energy efficiency. Smart blinds can be linked with a smart thermostat to automatically lower when the room temperature rises, reducing the burden on your AC.
  • Improve security. Having your blinds open and close on a schedule can make people think you are home, preventing potential crime.
  • Protect your home. Motorized blinds allow for better UV protection, keeping your floors, furniture, paint, and decor from fading.
  • Stay safe. Automatic window treatments are perfect for tall windows, allowing homeowners to safely open or close blinds in hard-to-reach areas.

Types of Smart Window Treatments You Can Get

You can get virtually any style of blind or shade in an automated option. Whether you’re considering cellular, Roman, roller, sheer, or vertical blinds, you can incorporate smart capabilities for ultimate convenience. If you have traditional wood or metal blinds, these can also be used with smart technology for a comprehensive solution.

Setting Up Smart Window Treatments

  1.  Charge your motor according to the device’s directions, if required.
  2. Connect to your home automation app to ensure the motor is connected to the internet. You will need to pair each blind with the app individually.
  3. Use your app to set up a schedule or to open and close your blinds on demand.

“Trevor and Jeff from Continental Blinds came out today and installed motorized roller shades. They did an amazing, efficient job, cleaned up, and put everything back where it was. Excellent customer service I would give them 10 stars if it was possible!”

“This company was the best! Professional, patient, efficient, and trustworthy. The sales rep came to my home (twice). First to show me all my viable options, and later so I could feel comfortable with my selection. The install team was phenomenal as well. They were meticulous in making sure my electronic shades were positioned perfectly, and operating optimally. These guys understood the investment and sincerely wanted to see me completely satisfied.”
