Cambridge Window Treatment Experts

Thirty-Five Years of Getting It Right

We’ve been solving window treatment challenges in the Greater Boston area since the mid-1980s. That’s over three decades of understanding exactly what works in New England homes and what doesn’t.

We’ve seen every trend come and go, but wireless rechargeable motors aren’t a trend—they’re the future that’s already here. We partner with industry leaders like Hunter Douglas and Lutron because quality matters when you’re investing in your home’s functionality.

Bemis homeowners trust us because we know the local market. We understand which solutions work best in your climate, your home styles, and your lifestyle needs. Our team handles everything from initial consultation through final installation, so you’re never left figuring things out on your own.

Battery Powered Shade Installation Process

Simple Setup, Lasting Results

First, we come to your home for precise measurements and consultation. We’ll assess your windows, discuss your daily routines, and recommend the best wireless motor options for each space. No two homes are identical, so your solution shouldn’t be either.

Installation happens in a single visit for most projects. Our motors are designed to work with existing window frames, so there’s usually no construction or electrical work required. The rechargeable batteries are built right into the system—completely hidden from view.

Setup takes minutes, not hours. We program your shades, connect them to your smartphone or smart home system, and walk you through the controls. You’ll be operating your new motorized treatments before we leave. Most batteries last 6-12 months between charges, and charging is as simple as plugging in a USB cable.

Smart Home Integration Bemis MA

Everything You Need, Nothing You Don't

Your wireless rechargeable motor system includes the motor, rechargeable battery, remote control, and smartphone app connectivity. We also provide wall mounting hardware, installation, and complete programming of your preferred settings.

Bemis residents particularly appreciate the energy efficiency benefits during our hot summers and cold winters. These motors can reduce your home’s heat gain by up to 77% in summer and heat loss by up to 25% in winter—real savings that show up on your utility bills.

Smart home integration works with whatever system you already have or plan to get. Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit—they all connect seamlessly. Set schedules, create scenes, or just tell your shades what to do with your voice. The technology adapts to how you live, not the other way around.

How long do wireless rechargeable motors actually last between charges?

Most wireless rechargeable motors last 6-12 months between charges with typical daily use. The exact timeframe depends on how often you operate your shades and their size—larger shades use slightly more power. What’s convenient is that the motors give you plenty of warning before they need charging. You’ll get notifications through your smartphone app, and most systems have LED indicators that change color when it’s time to plug in. Charging takes just a few hours, and you can still operate your shades while they’re charging if you have an external battery system. If you have south-facing windows with good sun exposure, you might want to consider adding solar panels. These small panels can extend your battery life significantly, sometimes eliminating the need for regular charging altogether.
Many wireless motorized shades are designed for DIY installation, but professional installation ensures everything works perfectly from day one. The motors themselves aren’t much different from installing regular blinds—it’s the programming and smart home integration where expertise really matters. We handle the measuring, which is critical for motorized systems. Even small measurement errors can cause operational problems that are expensive to fix later. We also program all your preferred positions, connect everything to your smart home system, and test every function before we leave. The peace of mind is worth it. If something goes wrong with a DIY installation, you’re troubleshooting on your own. When we install your system, you have our support and warranty backing up the entire project.
Yes, wireless rechargeable motors continue working during power outages because they run on their own battery power. You can still operate them with the included remote control even when your home’s electricity is out. Internet outages are different but not a major problem. You’ll lose smartphone app control and voice commands through Alexa or Google Home until your internet comes back. However, the remote control always works, and any scheduled operations you’ve programmed will continue running on the motor’s internal clock. Most systems also have manual override options, so you’re never completely stuck. The motors are designed to be reliable and functional even when the technology around them has temporary issues.
Absolutely. Motorized shades eliminate the cord strangulation hazard entirely because there are no cords. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, about nine children under five die every year from window covering cord accidents—motorized systems prevent this completely. Beyond eliminating cords, motorized shades also reduce the temptation for children to play with window treatments. There are no chains to pull, no wands to grab, and no strings to tangle. The smooth operation and lack of moving parts make them much safer overall. For pets, motorized shades mean no dangling cords to chew on or get tangled in. Many pet owners find their cats are less interested in motorized treatments because there’s nothing moving to trigger their hunting instincts.
The Department of Energy reports that properly managed window coverings can reduce heat gain by up to 77% in summer and heat loss by up to 25% in winter. For a typical Bemis home, this translates to noticeable savings on both heating and cooling costs. The real savings come from automation. Manual shades only work when you remember to adjust them. Motorized shades optimize themselves throughout the day—closing during peak sun hours to reduce air conditioning load, opening during winter days to capture free solar heating, and adjusting automatically for the best energy efficiency. Most homeowners see the energy savings within the first year, especially if they’re replacing old or inefficient window treatments. The combination of better insulation properties and automatic optimization makes a measurable difference on utility bills.
Quality wireless motors from brands like Hunter Douglas and Lutron are built to last, but when service is needed, we’re here to help. Most issues are actually programming or connectivity problems that can be resolved with a service call rather than hardware replacement. The motors themselves have very few moving parts, which means there’s less to break compared to traditional manual systems. When problems do occur, they’re usually related to battery performance, remote control programming, or smart home connectivity—all things we can typically fix quickly. We provide warranty support for all the systems we install, and we maintain relationships with the manufacturers for parts and technical support. Because we’ve been in business for over 35 years, you can count on us being here when you need service or support down the road.
