Motorized shades are a coveted solution for homes of all sizes and styles. By choosing powered shading solutions, homeowners can effortlessly master natural light with one-tap controls or automated schedules while improving privacy, security, and home décor.

But that’s where the benefits of battery-powered shades end. Ultimately, hardwired solutions offer more advantages related to style, performance, convenience, and sustainability.

To get the most out of your motorized shades, it’s best to plan for this smart home solution during new construction so that running wire can be pre-planned and more efficient. Keep reading to learn more about the advantages of hardwired custom window treatments for your Scottsdale, AZ home.

Home theaters and media rooms have been around for a long time, and the technologies powering them have seen significant change. Video, audio, and control technologies have seen significant improvements, and sometimes we forget how far they have come.

The home theater of a dozen years ago might be equipped with a Blu-ray player as a primary source of high-quality movie content. Today, while many still use this, it’s more popular to stream video in excellent quality from Netflix, Amazon Video, Vudu, and a host of other online services. In audio, surround sound was just beginning to go beyond the standard 5.1 surround setup with a front stage and two surround speakers. And with video, high definition 1080P was the standard resolution, just entering its growth phase as people replaced older standard definition TVs and projectors.

Fast forward to today, and we now have not only 4K but 8K resolution available, immersive Dolby Atmos audio, and supremely intuitive control systems. Let’s explore how you can update your media or home theater design in your Scottsdale, AZ home to elevate your entertainment experience.
