Motorized Smart Blinds in Durham Region
Motorized blinds replace the manual lift cord or chain with a quiet battery or hardwired motor controlled by remote, app, or voice. They are the right choice for tall windows, skylights, sun-exposed rooms, and anyone who wants scheduled scenes — blinds up with the alarm, down at sunset.

Why choose motorized
- Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit compatible.
- Rechargeable or hardwired motors.
- Group and scene control — whole floor with one command.
- Ideal for skylights and 10-foot+ windows.
- Fully child- and pet-safe: zero cords.

Great rooms with tall or angled windows, primary bedrooms (wake-up scenes), home offices (glare control during video calls), and any window you can't reach without a step stool.
Frequently asked questions
- How much do motorized blinds cost installed in Ontario?
- Motorized custom blinds in Ontario typically cost $450–$900 per window installed. Rechargeable battery motors sit at the lower end, hardwired motors and hub-integrated smart-home setups at the higher end.
- Do motorized blinds work with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit?
- Yes. We install motors that pair with the Somfy, Zemismart, and Louvolite bridges — all three ecosystems (Alexa, Google Home, HomeKit) are supported with voice and scene control.
- Are motorized blinds worth it?
- Motorized blinds are worth it for tall or hard-to-reach windows, homes with skylights, sun-exposed rooms where daily glare control matters, and anyone who wants scheduled wake-up and bedtime scenes.
- How long does the battery last?
- A rechargeable lithium motor typically runs 6–12 months per charge under normal daily use, depending on shade size. Charging takes about 4 hours via USB-C.
- Can existing blinds be motorized?
- Sometimes. If your existing shades are custom roller or zebra shades with a compatible tube, we can retrofit a motor. Older cord-lift blinds usually cannot be motorized cost-effectively.
