But first? You’ll want to know how much installing motorized blinds costs. In truth, the answer varies greatly depending on a variety of factors including the type of motor you select, the type of window treatment you choose, and the size and number of windows.

在这里，我们将通过分解不同尚飞电机的成本来提供示例，并研究在考虑为您的家配备电动窗帘的成本时需要考虑的因素。

电机

在选择哪种电机将为您的新电动百叶窗提供动力时，有多种选择可供选择。虽然该价格范围的低端电机乍一看似乎很便宜，但重要的是要记住，电动百叶窗是一项投资，可以提高您家的舒适度和宜居性。预先投资购买优质的电动系统可以为您节省金钱、时间和麻烦。

通常，处于频谱低端的电机具有更短的保修期，更多的机械困难，甚至可能更大。 Somfy 电机经久耐用，性能卓越，这就是 Somfy 从事电机业务 50 多年的原因。在您为您的家投资电动窗帘之前，请确保您购买的公司将在明年左右。您还需要研究电机附带的保修；尚飞电机享有完整的五年保修，但其他产品可能并非如此。

电动百叶窗和窗帘的价格会有所不同，具体取决于它们是电池、插入式还是硬接线。 Somfy 电池供电电机（我们在您的窗帘内制造的组件，而不是全电动窗帘或百叶窗）从 $270 开始，硬接线选项从那里开始上升。

在做出最终决定之前，重要的是要确保您已经检查了所选电机的技术能力，这将影响价格、速度和噪音水平。良好的保修是公司支持其产品的有力指标，并表明如果您需要帮助，公司将在那里提供帮助。

Window Treatments

Since you are contemplating installing motorized blinds, chances are that you already understand your window treatments will be an investment in your home. As with your choice of motor, you have lots of window treatment options to choose from, and there are a number of factors that will impact how much these window treatments will cost.

With so many options, choosing your window treatment can be a challenge. If you are struggling to decide between blinds, shades, or curtains, try to identify the main needs that you expect your window treatments to solve. For example, cellular or honeycomb blinds help with energy efficiency and solar shades can reduce UV glare.

Below, we consider several factors that will impact how much you can expect to spend on your window treatments.

Materials

One of the main factors that impacts the cost of a window treatment is the material. Before making a decision, consider the tradeoffs between different materials. For example, real wood is one of the most expensive window treatment materials out there, but it can also add more value to a home and is more durable than faux wood or vinyl. Eco-friendly window treatment materials like bamboo or other woven fibers may also be more costly but add value if you are seeking to green your home.

Number and Size of Windows

In order to develop a sense of the cost of your window treatment project, you will first need to spend time measuring your windows. If you feel uncomfortable gathering the exact measurements, do not hesitate to contact a window treatment professional — measuring windows is all just a part of their daily business. Working with a professional window covering dealer is ideal, as they’ll be able to measure and install your new motorized window coverings correctly.

However, if you are not afraid to get out your notepad and measuring tape to better estimate cost, here are a few guidelines to ensure that you are taking accurate measurements:

Use a metal tape measure. Soft measuring tapes that bend or fold will not provide you with the level of accuracy you are after.

Measure every window you plan to cover. Even windows that look identical to the eye can vary slightly in size.

Round to the nearest 1/8th”. This is where having a metal tape measure (and your glasses!) really comes in handy.

Notate measurements in width by height. It is very easy to flip those numbers around but doing so will cause many headaches down the line.

Keeping these guidelines in mind, it is time to take your window measurements. Once you know the width and height, you can begin to get a sense of the materials cost of your project.
