Motorized shades

Smart shades, done right.

Motorized shades can lower when the afternoon sun hits, cut the glare on the TV and close for privacy once it gets dark. With Control4, they also join your scenes, so one button sets the shades and the lights together. ITS plans the shade pockets with your builder and designer, installs the motors and programs the schedules.

ITS Instagram reel: Smart shades, done right. Three things they handle for you.
What it includes

Designed around how you live.

Every system is planned on your drawings, priced room by room, and supported by the same ITS team after you move in.

Glare and heat

Schedules lower the shades when the sun reaches a window and raise them again later in the day.

Privacy at night

Shades can close on a schedule at dusk or with the Good night scene, every night, without anyone remembering to do it.

Low-voltage motors

ITS shade motors run on low voltage. Where running a wire is not practical, a battery-powered motor needs no wiring at all.

Planned with the design

Shade pockets, ceiling recesses and wiring are planned on the drawings early, so the shades disappear when they are open.

How we work

Five clear steps.

The same process on every project, from the first plan review to the last service call.

STEP 01

Plan review

We review the drawings and place every keypad, speaker, TV and device on the plans.

STEP 02

Proposal

You receive an itemized proposal by system and by room.

STEP 03

Pre-wire

Every cable is run and labeled before insulation and drywall.

STEP 04

Trim-out and programming

Devices go in after paint, then scenes, keypads and voice control are set up.

STEP 05

Hand-off and support

Training, documentation and warranty records, and one number to call for service.

Questions

Common questions.

If your question is not here, call 786.266.7676 and we will answer it directly.

Do motorized shades work with Control4?

Yes. The shades become part of the Control4 system, so they run from keypads, the app, schedules and scenes, and by voice with Josh.ai.

Do the shades need a power outlet?

No outlet is needed at the window. ITS shade motors run on low voltage, wired from a power supply at the equipment location, and some openings use battery-powered motors that need no wiring.

What is a shade pocket?

A recess in the ceiling or above the window that hides the shade roll and motor. It has to be framed during construction, so it should be planned early.

Can shades be added to an existing home?

Yes. Battery-powered motors make it possible to motorize many windows without opening walls. We walk the home first and confirm what will work.
