Shop Blackout Motorized Roller Shades

How They'll Help You

Maybe you need a completely dark room to sleep, or maybe you need to block out the glare of streetlights at night, or even just to keep the room dark for movie night. You won’t find a more convenient way to do so than with the timeless style of the Motorized Architect Blackout Roller shade. The superior design of these roller shades, powered by Eve Motionblinds™ motors in tandem with Apple HomeKit™ technology is sure to make relaxing at home even more delightful.

This room darkening solution adds a distinctive flair with its timeless design. You can coordinate a lasting impression all around your home with these high-quality fabrics in this European-inspired design. Choose from a selection of colors woven into luminous custom window coverings with subtle textures.

Mix and match ideal colors and fabrics with your choice of modular components: choose from options like color-coordinated hardware and stylish cassettes with matching fabric inserts. You can also customize with sleek-looking metal bottom rails and elegant, fabric-covered cornice boards in order to easily complement your personal sense of classic, lasting style. The standard exposed headrail is perfect for creating luxurious layered looks, too (note that white backing on some fabric can be seen at the top of an exposed roller option). Sleek aluminum fascia upgrade also available.
Fabric Content List

This custom window treatment offers easy, smooth, reliable operation, with motorization included. Eve Motionblinds motors feature WiFi capability programmed right into the shade’s headrail, so you can automate to lift and lower without even having to make time for it during your daily routine. Or, easily operate with the simple pull wand, or harness the power of your motorized shade with a wireless remote for whenever your WiFi might be down. If the amazing look and convenient motorization alone don’t sell you on this roller, the easy install might just do the trick. Snap the roller into the sturdy mounting brackets, program it according to your preferences, and you’ll be “ready to roll."

Find the same beautiful colors in our Architect Blackout Panel Tracks so you can coordinate your large windows and sliding glass doors.

Very happy with these blinds. Very easy and straight forward installation. They came pre-programed even though I had to re-program one set. The programing was very easy. Installation took about five minutes.

These shades did exactly what I needed! I set them to open early in the morning and to close at night. The motor isn’t loud and was an easy installation for my husband.

I have a bunch of shades from IKEA but they don't have shades for big windows. I was looking for a long time for shades that will work with Apple HomeKit. Bought this, very pleased, fits better than IKEA fits my smaller windows (because this one is custom size), installation was even easier than IKEA's, works and looks better, too. Very pleased.

I have one piece of advice - instead of ordering online, call Select Blinds and speak to one of their design counselors. Our purchase was a little complicated and Donna made sure everything was just right, and the end result fit perfectly. We had quite a bit of trouble with programming the electric motor - the instructions were poor, a video that SB provided also didn't work, but a customer care rep solved the problem for us.
