You know what Miami’s year-round sunshine does to hardwood floors and upholstery. It destroys them. Lutron electric shades create a programmable barrier that closes during peak UV hours—the times when sun damage happens fastest.
Your AC won’t run as hard when solar heat gets blocked before it enters the room. That’s not a sales pitch, it’s physics. Homes with motorized window treatments see measurable drops in cooling costs because they’re controlling heat gain at the source.
And if you’ve got high windows or oversized glass walls, you already know the frustration of trying to adjust manual shades. Lutron shades Stacey Street installations eliminate that completely. One tap on your phone, one voice command, or a programmed schedule—your shades adjust themselves.
We operate out of Hallandale Beach and focus exclusively on South Florida homes. We use installation methods and materials chosen specifically for this climate—humidity, salt air, temperature swings—because what works in other states fails here.
We’re a Lutron-certified dealer, which means we’ve been trained on the systems we install and we warranty the work properly. You’re not getting a general contractor who watched a YouTube video. You’re getting installers who’ve handled hundreds of motorized shade projects across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach County.
We also handle the smart home integration side. If you’ve got Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, or a full Crestron system, your Lutron window treatments will connect to it without creating another app you’ll never open.
First, we come to your property and measure every window that’s getting shades. We’ll also ask about your daily routine—when you’re home, when rooms get the most sun, whether you want manual override options. That determines how we program everything.
Next, you’ll choose fabrics and opacity levels. Sheer fabrics let light in while blocking UV and glare. Blackout fabrics give you complete darkness for bedrooms or media rooms. Room-darkening options fall somewhere in between. We’ll show you samples so you can see how they actually look in your space, not just in a catalog.
Once materials arrive, installation typically takes one day for most homes. We mount the motorized hardware, program your scenes and schedules, and connect everything to your existing smart home system if you have one. Before we leave, you’ll know exactly how to control your shades—and what to do if you ever need to adjust settings.

Lutron’s motors are the quietest in the industry. You won’t hear buzzing or grinding when shades move—just smooth, nearly silent operation. That matters in bedrooms and offices where noise is a distraction.
Battery life on Lutron systems runs multiple years depending on usage. When they do need replacing, it’s a simple swap—no rewiring. And if you’d rather hardwire for power, we can do that too during installation.
In Stacey Street and the surrounding Palm Beach County area, oversized windows are common. Lutron handles large, heavy fabrics without strain because the motors are engineered for commercial-grade performance. You won’t see sagging or uneven movement over time.
You’ll also get programmable scenes. “Morning” can open your shades gradually to wake you with natural light. “Away” can randomize shade movement while you’re traveling so your home doesn’t look vacant. “Summer Cool” drops shades on south-facing windows during the hottest part of the day. These aren’t gimmicks—they’re functional automations that save energy and protect your property.
Lutron shades cost more upfront than entry-level motorized options, but the gap isn’t as wide as most people assume. You’re typically looking at a 20-30% premium over mid-tier motorized brands—not double or triple the price.
What you’re paying for is reliability. Lutron systems don’t fail at the rate cheaper motors do. The difference shows up two or three years in when budget options start having connectivity issues, motor burnout, or app problems. Lutron systems just keep working.
You’re also paying for integration quality. Lutron connects to more smart home platforms than any competitor, and those integrations actually function correctly. If you’ve ever dealt with a smart device that constantly disconnects or requires app restarts, you know why that matters. With Lutron window shades, the controls respond instantly and consistently—which is the whole point of automation.
Yes, and it’s one of the main reasons people install them. As long as you have internet at your property, you can control your Lutron smart shades from anywhere using the app.
That’s useful when you’re traveling and want to make your home look occupied. You can open and close shades on a schedule or manually adjust them in real time. It’s also helpful if you forgot to close shades before leaving and want to protect furniture from afternoon sun exposure.
The system doesn’t require a monthly subscription for remote access. Once it’s installed and connected to your WiFi, remote control is included. You can also give access to other people—family members, house sitters, property managers—without sharing your main login credentials.
If your Lutron shades are battery-powered, yes—they’ll keep working during an outage. The batteries aren’t affected by whether your home has power or not. You can still raise and lower shades manually using the remote or wall switch.
If your shades are hardwired into your electrical system, they won’t operate during an outage unless you have a backup generator or battery system for your home. That’s true for any hardwired motorized window treatment, not just Lutron.
Most installations in Florida use battery-powered motors because they’re easier to install and don’t require running electrical to every window. The batteries last years under normal use, and replacement is straightforward—you don’t need an electrician or a service call. It’s worth discussing both options during your consultation to see which setup makes sense for your property and how you plan to use the shades.
They will if you use them correctly. Motorized shades don’t magically reduce energy bills—they reduce solar heat gain, which is the biggest driver of cooling costs in South Florida. When you block sunlight before it enters your home, your AC doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain temperature.
The key is programming your shades to close during peak sun exposure. For most Stacey Street homes, that means south and west-facing windows between 11 AM and 5 PM. Lutron systems let you automate that schedule so it happens whether you’re home or not.
How much you’ll save depends on your home’s size, insulation, window square footage, and current energy usage. But the principle is solid: preventing heat is more efficient than removing it. Homes with large glass walls or floor-to-ceiling windows see the biggest impact because that’s where the most heat enters. If you’re currently leaving shades open all day because adjusting them manually is a hassle, automating that process will make a noticeable difference on your electric bill.
Lutron motors are covered by warranty, and the length depends on which product line you choose. Most residential systems carry a 5-year warranty on motors and electronics. If something fails during that period, the motor gets replaced at no cost to you.
In practice, motor failure is rare with Lutron. These aren’t the same motors used in budget motorized blinds. They’re designed for commercial applications—hotels, office buildings, high-end residential—where failure isn’t acceptable. The build quality is significantly higher.
If you do have an issue, we handle the warranty claim and replacement installation. You’re not calling an 800-number and waiting weeks for parts. As a certified Lutron shade dealer, we manage that process directly and get you back up and running quickly. That’s another reason to work with an authorized dealer rather than trying to DIY or using an uncertified installer—you have a local point of contact when you need support.
You can absolutely start with specific rooms or problem windows. Most people don’t do their entire home at once. They’ll start with a primary bedroom, a media room, or the windows that get the worst sun exposure—then add more later.
The system is modular, so adding shades over time doesn’t require reworking what’s already installed. New shades integrate into your existing setup and can be controlled through the same app and scenes you’re already using.
Starting with high-impact areas makes sense financially and lets you experience how the system works before committing to a full-home installation. A lot of our Stacey Street clients begin with south-facing windows or rooms with expensive furniture that’s fading. Once they see the difference in comfort and convenience, they typically expand to other areas. There’s no pressure to do everything at once—we’ll design the system so it’s expandable when you’re ready.
