All Blinds: BTX Motorized Blinds

BTX offers the most comprehensive lift and lift/tilt possibilities in the industry. These systems can adapt to our pleated shades, cellular shades, wood blinds and mini blinds. The quiet and powerful motors allow for effortless lifting and, where required, tilting of louvered horizontal wood and mini-blinds.

All systems are made in American and are available with a variety of control options. From as simple as a single switch to complex “intelligent” systems that track the angle of the sun and automatically adjust the shade for desired comfort and light quality. Choose from any of our pleat or cellular shades, wood, faux wood, vinyl or aluminum blind products.

Pre-solicitation design and consultation services are recommended for motorized shading systems. A GSA negotiated flat fee for up to 5 hours of design and consultative services, with a hourly rate for each additional hour of design and consultation services, ensures your satisfaction with the final product.

Color Accuracy Policy:

Although we do our best to make sure that the colors on our web site are accurate, actual colors will vary. In addition, subtle color differences and textures may not be fully appreciated on some systems due to differences in monitors and/or display cards because computer monitors are not all calibrated equally and color reproduction on the Internet is not precise. Since it is not possible to guarantee our online colors will look the same on all computers, we do not guarantee that what you see accurately portrays the color of the actual window treatment. Due to the fact that our products are all custom made, and cannot be returned, you need to be sure that you can live with any color variations that are possible from our scanning of the actual samples. Also, most of our products use Color-coordinated components. Color-coordinated means similar colors but not necessarily the same exact color. An exact match in color is not always possible for the components of the blind/shade. The color that best coordinates with the slat or fabric color of the product will be chosen for use on the components. All components will not necessarily be of the same exact coordinated color. Some examples of color-coordinated component would be ladder strings, lift cords, tilt mechanisms, bottom rails, tassels, etc. If an exact color match is needed, please order color swatches before placing your final order.
