Start & End Your Day with Luxury Motorized Shades
The Latest Technology Enables Shades to Adjust Silently & Automatically
Smart homes are designed to bring luxury and elevated living into our lives. They take the daily tasks we usually perform and automate them, managing our homes based on temperature, light, and daily schedules. We talk to our house like an old friend, asking it to perform a task or tap an elegant in-wall keypad or touchscreen and watch as our home transforms around us.
One of the tasks that home automation has revolutionized is the control of our window coverings. Now, beautifully designed motorized shades silently rise and lower throughout the day, based on the temperature and our daily schedule.
Let's explore how this exquisite smart home feature transforms daily life at home in Salt Lake City, UT.

Rising with the Sun
At AMT Integration, we take the time to discuss our clients’ lifestyles and daily routines. It's the only way to customize a smart home so that it genuinely enhances their everyday lives. Then, we schedule the home’s connected devices and systems to operate and adjust based on these schedules.
For example, some of our clients love the feeling of waking up to sunlight filtering through windows as their blinds slowly rise. Others enjoy sleeping in total darkness. So, in these bedrooms, we'll program blackout shades to lower at a preset time of day.
Some clients want to be reminded when the beautiful Utah sun is setting. We’ll make sure the motorized shades raise in the west-facing windows before sunset and then program them to slowly lower as darkness descends, allowing for the ultimate privacy.
For other clients with extensive landscape lighting design, there’s nothing better than raising the shades facing their backyard at dusk. The picture windows can almost appear as paintings with enchanting lights and shadows formed by their outdoor landscape and lighting.
Automated Control
In addition to scheduled lighting, your shades can rise and lower based on the temperature. As the morning progresses and solar heat increases in the south-facing windows, your shades will lower, giving your HVAC system a little rest.
The shades also protect your fine art, furniture, and rugs from the damaging effects of the UV rays in direct sunlight. They reduce direct glare while allowing the beauty of diffuse sunlight to filter through your home.
The Smart Home Ecosystem
The smart home ecosystem incorporates a group of smart devices and systems that work together seamlessly. That’s the true beauty of a smart home—when once disjointed devices become a unified whole.
Here’s an example.
Some friends and family are coming over for al fresco dining and an outdoor movie under the stars. Instead of adjusting the lights, raising the shades, turning on your favorite streaming playlist, heating the spa, and igniting the outdoor gas firepit and grill, your smart home does it for you. One tap on your Outdoor Dining button, and your home takes care of the rest.
