The Benefits & Features of Outdoor Motorized Shades

Extend Your Living Area While Bringing Comfort and Convenience to the Great Outdoors

Many people’s favorite season in Brookhaven, GA, has arrived. Soon, backyards will be filled with friends and family enjoying the great outdoors, whether lounging by the pool, dining outdoors, or hosting barbecues or benefits.

Unfortunately, we face several issues when we head to our outdoor areas. Spring and summer bring with them showers and thunderstorms, intense sun, and insects, taking outdoor celebrations and relaxing interludes inside. There is, however, a way to extend your outdoor living space and remain protected from the elements.

Today’s outdoor motorized shades offer beauty, convenience, and an incredibly comfortable environment. Let's explore their many benefits.

Keeping Mosquitoes, Flies, and Wasps at Bay

Nothing is more annoying than fighting off flying pests while enjoying a meal in the beauty of your backyard. Outdoor shades come in numerous materials, some designed specifically to seal out insects. Now, there are no more mosquitoes buzzing in your ears or wasps and flies descending on your shared meals. Instead, there's a peaceful and relaxing space where you’ll enjoy food, friends, and nature.  

Creating the Perfect Environment

While the Georgia sun can be awe-inspiring, it can also create hot and muggy summer days. Outdoor motorized shades block the heat and UV rays, enhancing your outdoor environment. Not only do they make a comfortable retreat, but they also protect your furniture from the direct sunlight that causes fading over time. 

For those looking for an extended four-season living area, fans, firepits, and outdoor heaters can create a comfortable space you and your family can enjoy no matter the weather, including those rainy, windy, and muggy days.

Outdoor Entertainment

Many clients turn their patios, lanais, gazebos, or carports into outdoor entertainment oases. Today’s outdoor speakers and TVs create crystal-clear sound and brilliant images. Whether enjoying a sporting event or a weekend movie night, motorized shades protect you from the elements while enhancing the enjoyment of your outdoor areas.  

Enhance Your Privacy

Dining al fresco or simply relaxing by the firepit while enjoying your beautiful landscape lighting is a wonderful way to unwind at the end of the day. Feeling insulated and protected during these private moments only adds to the sense of peace and tranquility. 

Motorized shades come in numerous materials and opacities, creating the perfect environment, depending on your needs. Colors range from white to pearl and black, with architectural shades that offer elegance and enhance your home’s aesthetics. Blackout fabrics provide complete privacy, while translucent materials let you retain your beautiful views.

The Ultimate Control

With one tap of a button, you can raise and lower your shades in an instant. You can enjoy the cool morning air and a latte on the patio, then close the shades when the sun starts beating down or a rainstorm heads your way. When integrated with your home automation platform, we can also program scenes and schedules, such as closing the shades at the same time every day.
