Frequently Asked Questions
What is smart shading integration?
Smart shading integration connects motorized shades to a home automation system for app, voice, remote, or schedule-based control. It allows shades to work with lighting, climate, and security as part of a unified smart home.
What smart home systems do your shades integrate with?
We install and program shading systems that integrate with Lutron HomeWorks & RadioRA 3, Control4, Savant, Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and other major platforms.
Can I add smart shading to my existing smart home system?
Yes. We regularly add Lutron and Somfy motorized shades to existing Control4 and Savant systems, coordinating with your AV integrator for seamless driver integration.
Can shades adjust automatically based on sunlight?
Yes. With Lutron and Somfy systems, we program astronomical time clocks and solar sensors that automatically adjust shades based on sunrise, sunset, and real-time sun position.
Do motorized shades need to be hardwired?
Not always. We offer both hardwired and battery-powered options depending on the project. Hardwired is preferred for new construction; battery-powered works well for retrofits.
Do you install smart shading in Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan?
Yes. Makris Installations provides smart shading consultation, installation, programming, and support across Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Long Island, Hoboken, and nearby areas.
