"What an amazing product! These shades not only block all the light, but the heat as well! I also noticed they buffer noise, which is always a bonus. We definitely plan to buy more for the bedrooms! Also, super easy installation and we love the cordless mechanism."
- Shawna, Tucson, AZ

"Product was great and came in exactly as expected. I was a little off on the measurement for one of the windows but the blinds work great and really block out the ambient light and I expect will be a great for keeping the heat in this winter."
- Eric D., Billerica, MA

SelectBlinds Automation

SelectBlinds Automation is our latest innovation in motorized control, offering seamless two-way communication between your smartphone and shades, with support for unlimited shades, customizable scenes, and flexible timers.

For an average-sized shade under typical usage (raising and lowering once per day) the internal rechargeable battery will last around 6 months. BThe battery can be recharged up to 500 times. It takes approximately 7 hours to recharge the motor when fully depleted.

The internal rechargeable battery requires a 5V DC compatible charger, which is sold separately as a charging kit. The kit is available in white only and includes a power block and a 120” charging cable equipped with a USB-C connection. At least one charging kit should be added to your order,

The 5-channel remote can control up to 10 individual window treatments. Motorization lift system upgrade does not include remote. A remote is not required for system operation, but if remote control operation is desired, we recommend adding one remote to your order for every room of shades.

Add a Solar Panel to your order to keep your shades charged automatically, reducing the need for manual charging and battery maintenance. This convenient, energy-efficient option utilizes solar energy captured at the window and offers flexible mounting options. Product specifications and installation instructions are available here.
