In the custom home integration channel, the evolution of shade controls in smart homes is accelerating, and the expertise of integrators serving these high-end homes is more valuable than ever. We invite you to contribute to the CE Pro 2024 Shade Controls Deep Dive Survey, an essential resource for understanding the latest trends and challenges in the industry.
Last year’s survey revealed some compelling data. Half of the integrators surveyed anticipated up to a 25% growth rate in hardwired interior shades, while 10% of integrators predicted growth of greater than 50% in battery-powered shades. Outdoor shades are also expected to remain steady, with one-third of integrators forecasting 11% to 50% growth.
In addition, just 8% of integrators said they include some type of shading solution on three-quarters of their jobs, and 11% don’t install any shades at all. The category is far more popular in luxury residential settings, including 57% of new builds.
This year, we’re digging even deeper, and we want to know how those predictions have played out and how our own findings stack up against some of the other research we’ve been seeing. We want to know how the market has evolved, which brands and products are leading the way, and what obstacles you face in delivering optimal shade control solutions to your clients. Your input will help create a detailed report that will inform and guide your peers in the industry.
By participating in this survey, you’re not just sharing your experiences—you’re contributing to a broader understanding of where the industry is headed. The insights gained from your responses will be invaluable in helping custom home technology dealers navigate the growing complexities of shade control systems.
