Why You Need Patio Door Window Treatments

As the famous song goes, "June is bustin' out all over," making it time to prepare your Floridian home for a hot and steamy July and August. As the Sunshine State certainly earns its name, it's important to know that the sun sheds abundant light and can be very damaging.

Your patio door is a surefire entrance for hot, humid air, so you want a high-quality window treatment. Our team of experts at Royal Furniture and Design is delighted to discuss the benefits of patio door shades and how automated shades can simplify your life.

Privacy Control

Since patio doors are large expanses of glass, they can compromise your privacy. If you live on a busy street, a passerby can easily see into your home, lowering its safety and security. Patio door shades will easily prevent this without compromising your view.

Light Management

A patio door shade is a perfect way to manage the light that enters your home. If your patio door is in your media room, less light is better for movie viewing, making a room-darkening shade a perfect choice. On the contrary, if your patio door is in your kitchen, more light is better for meal preparation, so a sleek designer roller shade always makes a good fit.

UV Protection

As the outdoor temperature rises, the rays become more damaging. Selecting a solar shade for your patio door can prevent UV rays' long-term effects on your furnishings and floors, such as warping, discoloration, and cracking, protecting them for years.

Automate Your Patio Shades for Ultimate Convenience

Your patio is a place to relax without being interrupted by constant window shade adjustments. With Hunter Douglas innovative PowerView® Automation, you can program your shades for various lighting scenarios that follow the sun's movement. For example, you can schedule the automatic patio shades to close when the sun is at its highest intensity during the late afternoon hours, or you can schedule them to open to enjoy the cooler morning air.

PowerView® also offers a variety of control options:

  • PowerView Pebble® Control: lets you control your light and privacy with a sleek remote device. Gone are the clunky, complicated remotes of the past. If you are afraid of misplacing it, opt for a convenient wall mount.
  • PowerView App: lets you manage your shades with your phone or iPad. It's that easy.
  • Voice: Activate your shades with Alexa, Siri, or Google Assistant. Say, "Open my shades.
  • Smart Home System: PowerView® is also compatible with smart home systems.
