Learn How We Help Fayetteville Homeowners Avoid These Issues Altogether

Motorized shades are one of the most elegant upgrades you can make to your home, but like any technology, they may have their own quirks. 

Below, we’ve compiled a list of three common complaints or fears we hear from homeowners before they learn about the best-in-class Lutron shading options we offer at AV Design Consultants. More importantly, we explain how you can avoid experiencing the same issues yourself.

MORE ON SHADES: Why Going Manual Isn’t Always Cheaper with Window Treatments

Complaint #1: Motorization Is Too Noisy to Enjoy

Nothing disrupts a serene atmosphere quite like a buzzing or whirring motor. Motorized shades should enhance your space, not interrupt it. At AV Design Consultants, we only install ultra-quiet motors from trusted brands like Lutron. In addition to the product itself, our certified installers expertly mount and calibrate each shade or blind to eliminate vibration and ambient noise.

Complaint #2: Shades Won’t Respond to the App or Remote

Laggy or unresponsive shades? That’s usually due to a network or integration problem. We design and install innovative shading systems on a robust control and networking foundation so they respond instantly, whether you're using your smartphone, keypad, or voice control. Seamless integration with Control4, Savant, and Lutron makes the experience smooth from day one.

Complaint #3: They Don’t Line Up or Move Together

Uneven shades are more common than you’d think, but they’re entirely preventable. We calibrate and group your shades so they rise and fall in perfect unison. We guarantee a clean, synchronized aesthetic by aligning motor strength, fabric weight, and travel limits. Add in Lutron’s patented Intelligent Hembar Alignment feature, and your living spaces will always exude a clean, put-together look.

The Verdict: Motorized Shades Are Essential

When designed and installed professionally, motorized shades should perform quietly, reliably, and with complete precision. If you're ready to enjoy the benefits without the hassle, our team at AV Design Consultants is here to deliver a flawless solution from start to finish.
