Powerful, Quiet, Robust, Stable, Scalable
Flexibility
Many window treatment manufacturers limit you to
their own proprietary motorization and automation
systems, restricting your choices to their products
only. This can lock you into a single brand for any
future changes, upgrades, or additions.
At Shades of Home, we believe in giving you the
freedom to choose. With Somfy, you canautomate
your window treatments while selecting from a
vast array of products, fabrics, colors, and
textures from thousands of manufacturers.
This flexibility ensures you can create the perfect
solution for your space, now and in the future.
Power Your Shades with
SOMFY
Once you’ve chosen your window treatments,
we’ll integrate them with Somfy motorization and
automation components.
Regardless of the manufacturer, Somfy-powered
treatments operate seamlessly with existing
remotes, apps, and smart hubs. Need to add a
new shade or motorize an existing one?
With Somfy, it’s easy to integrate new or existing
shades into your smart home system, ensuring a
cohesive and convenient control experience.
Future Proof
Technology is constantly evolving, and Somfy
stays ahead of the curve by upgrading its systems
to work with the latest innovations.
Who would have thought that voice commands
through Alexa or Google Home would become a
seamless way to control window treatments? The
rise of apps has transformed home automation,
enabling a plug-and-play environment where
modules or apps can be easily added as needs
and expectations grow.
Unfortunately, this rapid progress also means
many outdated products end up in landfills, a
reminder of the fast-paced nature of technological
advancements.
Scalable
Proprietary systems often struggle to integrate
new apps without significant costs or technical
expertise.
In contrast, Somfy’s open approach allows for
seamless integration with popular smart devices,
giving you the flexibility to adapt to changing
technology. Unlike closed systems that may
become unstable or limited when adding new
components, Somfy’s platform is designed to
work with a wide range of devices and systems.
This open-source approach empowers you to
easily add, subtract, or change your setup as your
needs evolve, ensuring a future-proof
Invest in a system that
