Want to adjust the window blinds but you’re too tired or busy to get up and do that? Great news, you don’t have to. With OM Wave motorized shades, you can adjust your window blinds wherever you are with a simple click. But how do motorized blinds work?
In this article, we’ll explain what motorized shades are, how do motorized shades work and our thoughts on why these window treatments are a perfect upgrade for your home.
What are motorized or electric blinds?
Automatic shades for windows are automated devices that can be fitted to your windows, doors, and garages. These devices are controlled automatically and are custom-made to perfectly fit the size and shape of your home. For many homeowners, these window treatments provide a more convenient solution than manual blinds. With just the touch of a button, you can create the perfect ambiance at any time of day.
At OM Wave, our luxurious motorized shades are available in:
- Roller shades – offer a smooth, sleek, and traditional look
- Roman shades – which fold away into neat, elegant pleats when open
- Automatic drapes – which perfectly suit lounges, sitting rooms, and bi-folding doors leading to a backyard
- Automatic shutters – which can be fitted on the outside of your windows, doors, or garages to maximize security
Are Motorized Shades the Same as Electric Shades?
Yes. They are also called Electric blinds or Motorized Blinds.
How do motorized window shades and blinds work?

How Do They Work And Powered?
There are various ways to power motorized shades, some of them include:
- Batteries – which are a highly reliable source of power, especially if lifetime or rechargeable batteries are used
- Hardwiring – which connects your shades to your main power supply, so you never have to worry about changing batteries
Battery-powered or hardwired shades are considered the most luxurious automated window treatment. Since wires and battery packs are hidden, they are safe to use in bathrooms and always look tidy.
Are Electric Blinds Reliable?
Electric shades are highly reliable. When properly maintained, they have a lifespan of up to 10 years on average. At OM Wave, our energy-efficient lithium-ion batteries mean our window treatments are built to last.
Note that battery-powered shades will need to be charged or have their batteries replaced occasionally but with hardwired shades, you’ll never have to worry about power running out.
