Smart Blinds & Motorized Shades

Custom automated window treatments perfectly tailored to your design and lifestyle.

Completely Automated Light Control

We believe that managing the intense South Carolina sun shouldn’t disrupt the beauty or comfort of your home. You shouldn’t have to walk from room to room tugging on tangled cords or adjusting individual blinds just to protect your interiors from the mid-day glare. At Stanek AV, we are PowerShades Authorized Dealers, providing premium, custom automated window treatments that effortlessly adapt to the rhythm of your day.

We act as your trusted advisor throughout the entire process, starting with a comprehensive in-home consultation to determine your exact light control and privacy needs. By collaborating directly with local interior designers, we deliver sophisticated shading solutions that preserve your property’s natural beauty and interior design. Whether you are building an estate on Lake Murray or updating a home in downtown Columbia, we handle every detail from perfect measurement to final programming, ensuring your home remains comfortable and efficient all year long.

Have Questions? We’ve Got Answers.

Before breaking ground on a new home build or upgrading your current living spaces, you deserve absolute clarity on how your system will look, perform, and operate.

We provide custom automated shading solutions for every stage of your property’s life. While running hardwired power lines during new construction in Columbia is ideal for a completely hidden infrastructure, we specialize in luxury retrofits. Utilizing PowerShades’ ultra-reliable battery-powered motors, we can install custom automated window treatments in your existing home with absolutely zero damage to your finished drywall or trim.

A multi-stage system gives you the absolute best of both worlds in a single window frame. It houses two separate shades: a light-filtering shade that blocks glare and heat while preserving your outside view during the day, and a separate blackout shade that rolls down when you need total privacy or complete darkness. Both shades operate independently or together from the exact same control interface.

Not at all. One of the greatest benefits of the PowerShades line is its incredible versatility. We can configure your automated window treatments to operate as a completely standalone system using a simple, elegant handheld remote control or an app on your phone. However, if you choose to expand your technology down the road, these systems are built to integrate seamlessly into a broader home automation network.
