SEE WHAT YOU’VE BEEN MISSING  

We’ve been shading our windows much the same way for hundreds of years. Pulling on chords, tugging on fabric—it’s time-consuming if you need to do it multiple times a day. And in large homes with hard-to-reach windows, you may just leave the shades open. 

That is, until motorized shades. Motorized shades aren’t a brand-new concept, but Lutron has refined the technology to perform seamlessly across the house through automated schedules and smart commands. And Lutron is committed to its motorized shading business— it’s recently broken ground on a new 145,000-square-foot shading factory in Virginia. 

If you still use manual shades and blinds in your Westlake, TX home, see what you’ve been missing below. And if you’re curious about installing Lutron shades, contact Texadia Systems here. 

WHICH ROUTE SHOULD YOU TAKE? 

If you’re interested in a new lighting design for your home, you have two options: taking the do-it-yourself (DIY) route or hiring a professional lighting designer. While DIY may seem appealing due to lower costs, there is a trade-off. 

In this blog, we'll compare the pros and cons of each approach, highlighting the limitations of DIY lighting design and the benefits of working with a professional. Looking for lighting design services in the Southlake, TX, area? Contact Texadia Systems here! 

AN ALL-IN-ONE SMART SYSTEM FOR YOUR HOME 

When you Google “how to build a smart home,” you’ll find many blog posts and articles about video doorbells, Wi-Fi-connected bulbs, and other gadgets. These devices are technically “smart,” but collecting smart devices does not make a smart home. With each DIY device, you’ll have to use its own app or remote for control. 

And is that really convenient if you need to swipe through pages of apps to use your house? We don’t think so. A smart home should have everything consolidated in one place. There are DIY smart hubs that claim to connect your tech under one roof. But unless you’re an IT wiz, these hubs can’t carry out complex automation and will still have compatibility issues.

Luckily, there’s a better way. A smart home provider like Savant integrates with all your home devices, so you’ll control them through a single smart system. Savant can automate your home with sophistication and customization that DIY solutions simply can’t offer.  

But Savant can’t be ordered online and set up in an afternoon. You’ll need to work with a certified Savant dealer to install the system across your house. Here’s what a Savant dealer can do for your Westlake, TX, home. Ready to get started? Contact Texadia Systems here.

Unify Teams, Collaborate & Succeed Across Different Locations 

What is a digital workplace? Put simply, it’s a network of connected technologies that allow a business to communicate, store and share information, and conduct business virtually. Today’s digital workplace solutions are so sophisticated that entire companies can function remotely without stepping into a physical office. 

Whether your company is remote, hybrid, or has different office locations, the digital workplace is the future of modern business. With the right tools, your teams can still perform all their daily obligations and seamlessly join meetings, even if they’re time zones away.

Embrace the Future of Business Communication

When companies fail to adapt, they often get left behind. From Blockbuster to BlackBerry phones, brands that didn’t get ahead of the digital revolution soon became relics of the past.

Those examples may seem extreme, but if your business hasn’t adapted to hybrid meetings yet, will that cause issues down the line? You may encounter clients or partners that want to communicate over video call, and your in-person team won’t be able to adequately meet with them. That could send a subconscious signal that your company is behind the times. 

With a smart video conferencing system in place, your Dallas, TX, staff can seamlessly join video calls even with a room full of people. Here’s how it works and why it will help your teams grow and thrive.

Choose Whichever Methods Work for Your Business’s Security

How does your business manage who can enter your buildings? Do you use physical keys or card readers—or trust someone at a front desk to monitor everyone who walks inside?

If you’re looking to boost security for your Plano, TX, business, remote access control systems offer a convenient and secure way to manage and restrict access to your company’s facilities and sensitive areas.
