Why You Should Avoid a DIY Motorized Shades Installation

Opt for a Professional Installation for a Beautiful, Easy-to-Use Solution

Over the years, we’ve realized motorized shades are a pretty easy sell. For one, this upgrade boasts a wide range of benefits. They boost your decor, help you manage natural light, work with your HVAC to regulate the temperature in the home, and even protect your family from external actors or internal hazards.

The other reason they’re an easy sell is that motorized shades are a relatively easy upgrade to either existing homes or new constructions. Unfortunately, that means that some of our more ambitious prospects decide to go the DIY route. While plenty of DIY motorized shades are available, but we still recommend working with a professional to get the luxurious experience you deserve. 

Below we highlight some of the issues you’ll encounter with a DIY approach.
