Three motorized roller shades across six windows in a Castle Pines Village bedroom
A newly remodeled bedroom needed morning sun softened, not shut out. Three outside-mounted motorized roller shades cover six windows, with 8-inch valances hiding the rollers, decided in a single visit.

Overview
The homeowner had just finished remodeling the bedroom and wanted window coverings to match. The goal was to tame the morning sun without making the room dark.
- Soften the harsh morning sun
- Cut glare without blacking out the room
- Suit the new remodel
- Look finished with the shades raised
- Motorized, so no one has to work them by hand
- Cover six windows without six separate shades
Motorized Designer Roller Shades, mounted outside
Instead of fitting a shade inside each opening, we mounted the shades outside and above the windows. Three shades cover all six windows, which looks cleaner and means fewer shades to run.
Motorization lets the homeowner adjust them as the sun moves through the morning.
Why the 8-inch valances
Mounting outside the openings gave the coverage we wanted, but it left the rollers visible when the shades are up. Custom 8-inch valances hide them. It is a small detail, and it is the difference between shades that look installed and shades that look designed.
Decided in one visit
Some projects take several visits and a trip to the showroom. This one took a single appointment: we talked through the morning light, chose the light-filtering level and fabric, settled on the outside mount, and took final measurements. We also changed the power setup on the homeowner's existing blinds to make charging easier.
Project timeline
About four weeks from consultation to installed shades.
“Lucas did an amazing job. In one appointment, he was able to help me land on a decision, pick a fabric, and get final measurements. He was able to answer all my questions, address all my concerns, and even change the power on my pre-existing blinds to make charging easier. I will absolutely be using him for all my blind projects in the future.”
