The Benefits of Motorized Units
Sergio Mota • August 21, 2023
Ditching traditional window treatments and switching to motorized units can make a huge difference in your home. Not only do motorized units add to the efficiency and convenience of your space, but they also lend to its aesthetic appeal, giving you a modern and sophisticated home. One of the most advantageous features of motorized units is their use of a screen zipper system, which is impulse frequency welded for superior support, ensuring your screens are of the highest quality possible.
- Screen zipper systems are unique products that aid in the structure of seamless motorized screens. These systems are welded for superior support and form a stable, coherent screen that can endure a range of environments and weather conditions. This technology ensures a long life of use and guarantees you a high-quality product that will last you years without any maintenance.
- To further ensure the quality of your motorized screens, all our products are constructed with a reinforced corner for added durability and strength. These corners are designed to stand up against harsh weather conditions and provide extra stability if the screens are accidentally knocked or tampered with.
- Another unique feature our motorized units offer is low-power consumption. This guarantees you will save money on energy bills in the long run, making our products as economical as they are luxurious.
- Furthermore, our heavy-duty bottom bar ensures your motorized screen doesn't need to be re-tensioned after installation. Once the screen is installed properly, you can go about your business knowing your screens are secure and reliable. The motor tubes are also engineered to limit deflection, meaning you don't have to worry about the screen blowing out of place during difficult weather or high winds.
- Our motorized units are also designed with a screen entry guide on the side rail for perfect alignment and stabilization. This feature gives your screens a more streamlined look and helps provide easy entry and exit from your space. Finally, there are no visible screws, making your motorized screens look neat and clean.
So, why wait? Start customizing your motorized unit today and experience the future for yourself!
