What Are My Options?
Blinds & Shades:
You have many options when it to comes to motorization. We go through an in-depth consultation with each and every one of our customers to make the most thorough recommendations based on a multitude of factors. We’re here to help simplify your options and recommend the appropriate style of motorization to suit your needs. Motorized window coverings are available with battery power, plug in and hard wire.
Hard-wire is a popular choice in motorized blinds especially those looking to integrate into their home automation system; however battery power is attractive to those who want to avoid wiring. For easy installation, operation and maintenance, most PowerView systems by Hunter Douglas are battery-powered, and can include an environmentally friendly Rechargeable Battery Wand. Plug-in is another option, all that is needed is a typical outlet; this is great because it will avoid you changing batteries. Ease of use is one of the many highlights of having motorized blinds. We go through an in-depth consultation with each and every one of our customers to make the most thorough recommendations based on a multitude of factors.
The newest innovation in the Motorized Category by Hunter Douglas is the new SoftTouch™ Motorization by Hunter Douglas. It’s a battery-powered system that is controlled with a wand attached to the shade. To operate you gently pull down on the wand to lower shades and push up to raise them. The click-and-walk-away functionality makes operating your shades easy! Because SoftTouch Motorization is cord-free they prove to be an excellent choice for child and pet safety since there are no cords. An added feature is the ability to set a favorite shade position.

We’re Certified by Hunter Douglas
In 1985, when our family-run business began, we decided we always wanted to be up on training and make sure that we always had the most up to date products available on the market. When Hunter Douglas introduced their new motorized blinds available to hook into home automation or run with a computer, we knew that we had to be one of the first in the area to supply this. That is why we decided to invest in Hunter Douglas’s certification process. Having completed their intensive program, Blind Advantage is currently leading the window covering industry within the GTA, being one of the only dealers who are certified motorization specialists. A lot has changed since then and we’ve been on top of it all every step of the way.
