Elevate Your Home with Lutron Window Treatments
Minnesota homes face some of the most demanding light conditions in the country — from long summer days with intense western sun to deep winter afternoons that fade by 4 p.m. The way you manage light through your windows shapes how your home feels, functions, and performs year-round. At Golden – GE Group, we install and program Lutron motorized shading systems that give you complete, effortless control over every window in your home.
Why Window Treatments Deserve a Smarter Approach
Traditional blinds and manual shades require constant adjustment. You raise them in the morning, lower them when the glare hits, and forget about them entirely when you leave. Motorised Lutron shading changes that dynamic completely. Your shades move on their own schedule — responding to the time of day, your lighting scenes, or a single tap on a keypad — so your home always feels exactly the way you want it.
Lutron has been engineering precision shading systems for over 60 years, and it shows in every detail: whisper-quiet motors, perfect shade alignment across multiple windows, and fabric options that range from sheer solar to full blackout. We bring that engineering to Minnesota homes with certified design and installation from start to finish.
Shade Options Built for Every Room and Opening
One of the most common misconceptions about motorized shading is that it only works for standard rectangular windows. Lutron's lineup covers far more than that, and we design each installation around the specific openings and décor of your home.
Roller shades offer clean, contemporary coverage in sheer to blackout fabrics — ideal for living rooms, offices, and bedrooms where glare control matters.
Drapery systems automate pinch pleat, ripplefold, and vertical drapery on motorized tracks, adding elegant motion to more traditional or formal spaces.
Horizontal sheer blinds combine soft fabric with precise light diffusion for spaces where you want warmth without harsh shadows.
Palladiom shading is Lutron's flagship line — featuring refined hardware, sleek brackets, and sophisticated keypads engineered for large-format and high-visibility installations.
Skylights and angled glass get tensioned and cable-guided solutions that keep fabric taut and consistent where standard shades simply won't work.
We match fabric weight, opacity, and drive hardware to each specific opening so the result looks as good as it performs.
Automated Shading Integrated Into Your Whole Home
A motorised shade on its own is a convenience. Motorised shading integrated into your full home automation system is something else entirely. At Golden – GE Group, we coordinate Lutron shading with your Control4 system, lighting, AV, and climate so everything works together as a single cohesive environment.
When you activate a movie scene in your theatre, the blackout shades drop and the lights dim — without touching a second control. When your morning schedule starts, the shades in the bedroom rise gradually as the lighting transitions from dim to bright. When you leave for the day, a single "away" command closes every shade in the house to reduce heat gain and protect your furnishings from UV exposure.
This level of coordination is what separates a properly programmed smart home from a collection of individual gadgets. We design and program every scene so your shading responds the way your life actually works.
Energy Efficiency Through Natural Light Management
Minnesota summers push cooling loads significantly, and south- and west-facing windows are often the biggest contributors to afternoon heat gain. Lutron shading gives you a practical, elegant way to manage that without blocking your views entirely.
Solar roller shades in particular are engineered to cut UV transmission and glare while preserving your sightlines. Automated schedules can drop shades during peak sun hours and raise them once the angle shifts — reducing the load on your HVAC system without requiring any manual intervention. Over a full season, that kind of intelligent daylight management translates to real energy savings alongside improved comfort.
We handle shade fabric and drive selection as part of the design process, matching each fabric's solar heat gain coefficient to the orientation and size of the opening.
The Golden – GE Group Installation Process
Lutron shading systems require more than hanging hardware and connecting a motor. Fabric tension, bracket placement, drive programming, and scene coordination all need to be handled precisely for the system to look and perform the way it should. Our team is factory-trained on Lutron systems and treats each installation as an architectural project — not a product delivery.
We start with an in-home consultation to understand your goals, assess your openings, and recommend the right products for each space. From there, we design the full system, specify fabrics and hardware, and handle every aspect of installation and programming. Before we leave, we walk you through how everything works and make sure your household can use the system with confidence from day one. Ongoing support is available whenever you need it.
