When planning a window project, there are two elements that can streamline the process: the power source for the windows and the design of the window coverings. Paying close attention to these details can save time, reduce long-term costs and enhance the functionality of your windows. Here are a couple of key things to focus on: Choose a power source that supports future upgrades. It’s important to consider how your windows will be powered, especially if you plan to incorporate motorized window treatments like PowerView shades at some point. Hardwiring each window during the installation process can eliminate the need for battery-operated power sources, saving you from the hassle of replacing or recharging battery wands over time. Match window coverings to your windows’ specifications. Selecting the right window coverings depends heavily on the dimensions and depth of your windows, as well as obstructions like cranks and locks. Instead of choosing a covering style upfront, let the windows guide your decision. For example, shutters require adequate depth to open and close properly, so make sure your windows are compatible before finalizing your choice.
