Motorized & Remote Control shades and blinds

While reactions vary to the mention of remote controlled or motorized window treatments, most people's first thought goes to "extravagant"
... or something along that line.
But the fact is there are practical reasons to consider powered shades, in addition to the simple, wireless installation and attractive pricing.





Difficult to reach windows

Duette SkyRise

There are many conditions that could fall under the description of 

"difficult to reach":

• Tall or high-up windows
• Skylights
• Windows obstructed by furniture or fixtures (corner bathtub, anyone?)
• Disability or limited mobility concerns

All these conditions can make it awkward, if not impossible to get the most out of your windows.

Quantity of windows
A bank of several windows in a room adds openness and light; but when you want more privacy or a bit less light, the thought of adjusting each shade individually can seem like a chore.

Silhouette

PowerRise shades allow you to control just one, or all shades at once at the touch of a button. Shades can be programmed into fully customized groups as well, to best suit your needs. If you habitually prefer to keep your shades at a certain height, you can easily "teach" your shades to stop at that point each time they're raised.

Extra-wide windows or doors
Just as with a large quantity of windows, large shades on very wide doors and windows can be cumbersome to operate.


Safety concerns
PowerRise shades eliminate dangling lift cords or loops, for child and pet safety.








Experience the ease and convenience of operating shades with PowerRise, PowerGlide or PowerTilt for yourself: visit Bruton's to try out the various options on display in-store.

Architella shades can save you money!

Duette Architella honeycomb shades from Hunter Douglas are specially designed to provide extra layers of air space between your windows and your room. These pockets of air provide insulation against winter's chill, and summer's heat, translating into savings on heating and air conditioning costs.

Welcome to 2013!

We're starting this year with a splash of color! 

How To: Measuring Your Windows

Should I install the shade inside the window, or outside the window frame?

Whether to fit your shades inside the window frame or outside to overlap the frame is, for the most part, a personal preference.
What sort of look do you want to achieve?

Keep your furnishings looking beautiful...

The Sun is astonishingly powerful...


From 150 million kilometers away it has the power to give light and heat, provide usable energy and toast our skin, if we wish. Unfortunately it also has the power to damage furnishings, causing fading and/or brittleness for all sorts of items including upholstery, flooring and cabinetry.

Window coverings protect your valuable home furnishings, and allow you to enjoy your views when desired. Many different options are available, from the sleek and understated to focal and elegant... and everything in between!
                




A very common concern is that of not wanting to lose a great view, or to be 'shut off' from the outdoors & lovely light during the day- but still protect from harmful sun. The good news is that there are several types of shades that can allow you to get the most out of your windows and solve this dilemma.

Silhouette & Nantucket shadings from Hunter Douglas combine two layers of sheer fabric, with a soft vane suspended between. This gives the benefit of up to 87% UV blocking even when tilted open, allowing diffused, soft sunlight to bathe your room, and providing a filtered view of outdoors.The vanes can also be tilted to any degree for complete privacy and lighting control. 

Much of the same effect can be attained in a vertical, drapery style treatment with Luminette Privacy Sheers.

Hunter Douglas Designer Screen Shades offer sun protection and view when total privacy and light control aren't the main concern. Easy-care fabrics and a variety of opacity and texture choices make these a popular choice for kitchens, sun-rooms and offices. Available as roller shades, roman shades as well as vertical gliding panels.

Another opportunity for enjoying both light/view and complete privacy,
the 'Duolite' option for Hunter Douglas Duette and Applause...

A private and insulating honeycomb fabric is paired with a fine, sheer honeycomb above to create a two-in-one shade. An excellent choice for bedrooms and bathrooms in particular, as you can ensure total privacy at whatever height you wish, while allowing in diffused, softened light above when desired.


Stop in at Bruton's to explore all these possibilities and more, available to protect your furnishings and enjoy your windows.

So long 2011, Hello 2012!

As the year comes to a close, we're starting to see the first real winter weather... We've been pretty lucky so far, with temperatures in November and even December above freezing. With colder days on the way, you may once again be wondering what can be done to keep your home warmer but keep the heating costs down.

Duette Architella Honeycomb shades from Hunter Douglas are a great way to not only gain the privacy and design appeal of a window treatment, but also insulate your windows against winter's chill. Architella's innovative honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb construction provides three layers of insulating air between your window and your warm room.


In the winter, as much as 40% of the heat that escapes a home can be attributed to its windows. A Duette Architella shade could bring your windows' R-value up to about 7.5, and has the potential to reduce heat loss by 50%.

of the greatest heat loss.

These versatile shades are available in both room darkening as well as semi-opaque and can accommodate windows very small to very large. Several operating styles (including cordless!) mean the shades are easy to use and adaptable to just about any situation.

New for Fall 2010

Hunter Douglas expands on their extremely popular Duette Architella Collection of honeycomb shades by adding Architella Batiste, and Architella Batiste Bamboo, made with one of  nature's most renewable resources.


These fabrics bring subtle, casual linen textures that are private yet more light filtering than other Architella fabrics. The innovative 'CrystalClear' inner honeycomb layer allows maximum light transmission while providing the exceptional insulating properties of an Architella shade.

Putting a twist on the Architella design, new Vignette Architella Tiered shades take Roman style shades to a whole new level. Add in the LiteRise cordless option and you may just have the perfect roman style shade!

Enhanced energy-efficiency from the layered construction, without sacrificing the elegance & beauty of Vignette shades.

Always searching for new ideas, Hunter Douglas has created a gorgeous 

solution for those places where a drapery look is desired or needed.

Vignette Traversed with Vertiglide takes the simple elegance of Vignette roman shades and turns them into panels that effortlessly glide across your windows or doors.

Tame the sun, enjoy the view!

Energy Efficiency

Without energy-efficient window treatments, as much as 50% of a home's heating and cooling energy can be lost through its windows. All Hunter Douglas window fashions provide window insulation, offering your home increased protection against heat loss during the winter, as well as minimizing the sun's heat or "solar heat" during the summer.

Solar Heat Control

The warmth provided by the sun, its solar energy, may be desirable during the winter to help heat your home, yet it can make a room overly hot and uncomfortable while driving up air conditioning costs in the summer. Many Hunter Douglas products are designed to reduce the amount of solar heat that passes through the window, which is known as the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC). The lower the SHGC, the more protected your home is from the sun's heat. To enjoy the sun's warmth when desired, simply raise or open the window fashion and invite it in.

Form & Function

Daylighting

Daylighting is the practice of lighting rooms with natural light rather than generating illumination from electricity. With Hunter Douglas window fashions, you can control how much natural light comes into your room. Our sheers and other select styles actually diffuse light as it enters and help to draw it deeper into the room. By drawing natural light into a room many of our window treatments reduce your energy needs for other types of lighting.

Styles such as Screen Roller shades (left) allow you to maintain an open feel, and keep a view while tamping down the glare of the sun by up to 99%.

Others, like Nantucket Sunscreen shadings (above,right) offer the view-through of screen shades while allowing you to tilt soft louvers for added light control & nighttime privacy.
For the ultimate in heat/cold insulation, look to Hunter Douglas Duette Architella shades (left). Their exclusive, innovative 'honeycomb within a honeycomb' design gives you three pockets of insulating air between you and your window, creating an R-value of up to 7.18 or a SHGC value as low as 0.17

UV Protection

Just as sunscreen protects our skin from the sun's damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays, window treatments protect our room interiors and add to the lifespan of valuable possessions. Virtually every Hunter Douglas product filters out at least 75% of the sun's harmful UV rays when installed over double-glazed glass windows. Many of our products provide even greater protection, up to 99%, when fully lowered and with slats, vanes or louvers in the fully closed position. The rating of Good to Excellent to Superior for this product will partly depend on the fabrics and product features you choose and whether your window covering is opened, closed, raised or lowered.
For additional statistics or information on these or other possible options, get in touch with us!
