I installed my own via Select Blinds. I recently installed a 3 roller blind setup for my sliding doors. They look great and they were simply for me to install. Full disclosure...I am pretty handy and have tools to do this. The most challenging thing was making 100% sure the measurements were dead on. My only advice for DIY is to take whatever measurement you come up with and reduce the overall length by 1/8th of an inch...this is when considering the full length of the window frame (do not reduce the length of each roller blind assembly by 1/8 the gap will be too big) I saved $4k doing this myself...in comparison compared to the quote we recieved from the pros. If you are handy then consider DIY.

Great tips here! For anyone not comfortable with doing an install themselves, getting the right professionals is the next best step. Thanks for watching.

[@KhmerH20]

is the blind still holding up ok? I'm considering the motorized option from Select Blinds but want to understand more about its reliability.

[@blakevackar6785]

Fantastic Job Scott ! This is one of the best videos on youtube for helping someone truly understand what electronic shades can do for a home that is easy to understand and supported by beautifully shot projects.

Thank you for the very concise and helpful video.

[@VIPvog]

Thank you for the informative video. I am currently in the process of planning a new home and looking to prewire for blinds. What would you recommend?

Great video! Very informative!

[@irishRocker1]

Very helpful. What model is it at 2:15? looks perfect for me. I have nice views behind my house, but its hard to see the computer screen when it is bright outside. I would love to still see those views but drop the brightness a bit. And then with a dual roller, have a blackout blind as well to fully black out when needed. But the transparent black looks better than the transparent white I had been looking at.

[@AudioAdvice]

Those are Lutron brand screens. There are a ton of choices. If you are in North or South Carolina, we can help you out, if not you should search for a local Lutron shade dealer. They would be perfect for your application. Thanks for watching

[@MommaKnowsBestest]

i live in vancouver would love to mail in the system if its easy to install.

[@Lita_213]

Great information!

[@jeffborkowski]

Are there any battery powered smart roller shades? Also, if powered is not an option, what's the best, most inconspicuous manually operated pull chord roller shade option?

[@johnm5714]

YES-battery operation has come a long way using rechargeable lithium ion batteries so for post construction applications I install thousands per year...

[@zacharykosove9048]

Can I she duke it to close at a certain time and open slowly at a certain time for sleep and a calm wake up

[@rholthuis]

You mention the name of a brand of shades about 50 seconds into the video, but I can't make out what you said. Can you please try to identify your recommendations below and maybe present some text on the screen with key information. Thank you!

[@eddieg4246]

Rudy Holthuis He said Lutron

[@rholthuis]

@@eddieg4246 Thank you!

[@kristibbitts3286]

A lot of talk about Lutron and the swatches said Lutron. But it looked like a lot of the shades shown were actually PowerShades. Is that correct?

[@AudioAdvice]

All of the shades in this video are Lutron. Thanks for watching!

[@11219tt]

Ok I did trade shows for years and for some reason it seems the look of all salesmen is a slightly baggy blue dress shirt, greased or gelled hair, and a facial structure somewhere between attractive and Picasso. 😂

Got em!!

[@oscarmartinez3186]

Quick question my home came with these electric blind curtains and it’s a bit broken the middle is longer than the other two and when I make them go up it just keeps rolling when it is already wrapped up any tips on how to fix it?

[@AudioAdvice]

Oscar, you will need to find out the brand and reach out to the manufacturer. There is no generic repair we know of, thanks for watching

[@oscarmartinez3186]

@@AudioAdvice gotcha thanks

[@Omizuke]

Are there horizontal blinds with the 3 settings. Like the ones at 3:22 that the complete open moves the blind to the bottom So you can have a complete open top only? Or perhaps since these are measure and made to fit. Could their "see through" have varying transparency. Like the upper 1/3 be a clear as possible while the bottom darker?

[@AudioAdvice]

Great questions. We recommend you contact us at audioadvice.com via chat or phone and our team of experts can help you out and see if we can find exactly what you're looking for!

[@jukio02]

You're right, everyone in my house is lazy as hell, they may open a few here and there, but it's always dark in the house. For the past 10 years, it's been me opening and closing every morning and night. I wish I had an automatic system like this.

[@scottnewnam6976]

That's the experience with 90% of homes 😀

How are motorized roller blinds powered?

[@AudioAdvice]

Great question, many these days can be battery powered. Lutron has developed a motor that results in a 5+ year battery life. There are more fabric options if you can hard wire them, but that is normally only possible in new construction. Thanks for watching

[@MIlw55]

The video needs to get rid of the music. I can barely understand the narrator because of it.

[@johnh8705]

"I'm tired of opening and closing these windows" 🤷‍♂️

[@frankburns8871]

I really don't get how quietness is even in the top 100 considerations. It takes a few seconds, for crying out loud. Even if it was as loud as a chainsaw, it really wouldn't matter much, and I can't imagine even the "loudest" of these things being more than a slightly annoying low hum or buzz...for 5-10 seconds, max.

[@sherrie8720]

It matters in our house. Hyperacusis combined w hearing loss almost makes life unlivable. So super important for some.
