Aura™ Illuminated Shades FAQs

Where can I see Aura shades in action before I buy?down arrow

Visit one of our showrooms to experience Aura Illuminated Shades in action. Our interactive, full-size displays allow you to try before you buy and purchase with confidence. We have showroom in both Carmel and Fishers, Indiana. Walk-ins are welcome but appointments are encouraged if you want to meet one-on-one with a design consultant and your specific project.

Currently, Drapery Street is the only Hunter Douglas gallery in Indiana that sells and installs Aura Illuminated Shades.

Can you adjust the amount of illumination coming from the shade? down arrow

Yes. You can adjust the light levels on Aura shades from dim to bright. You can also adjust the light temperatures from warm to cool and the speed at which lights fade in and out.

Conveniently control Aura shades with PowerView+™ Automation (which is hardwired) and the PowerView App. Within the app you can adjust the shade and liner positions, as well as the light intensity and temperature, whenever you desire.

Set custom scenes for your Aura shades so they adjust automatically throughout the day based on your preferences.

Your Drapery Street installer will help you program your Aura shades and set custom scenes if you desire.

Are Aura shades compatible with my smart home system? down arrow

Most likely, yes. Our window treatments, including Aura Illuminated Shades, are compatible with most home automation systems including Loxone, Control4, Crestron, Google Assistant, Savant, Lutron, Logitech, Elan, and more.

What shade styles can I choose from?down arrow

Choose from three shade types for the front panel of your Aura shades: Vignette® Modern Roman Shades, Designer Roller Shades, and Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades.

Are Aura shades energy efficient?down arrow

Aura shades are avaiable in three different front panels. The Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shade will be the most energy efficient. Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades marry the simplicity of a roller shade with a layer of insulating fabric.

Are Aura shades light filtering or room darkening? down arrow

Both! Aura shades are like three shades in one. They offer a textured front shade that filters natural light, a room-darkening liner that enhances privacy, and built in lighting that provides a relaxing glow any time of day or night.

Do you offer a warranty on your Aura shades?down arrow

We stand behind all our products. We offer a Love It Guarantee, Limited Lifetime Warranty, and Hunter Douglas Right Choice Promise, which provides a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Why live in grayscale when your windows can bring the color? 🌈

Online retailers aren’t the budget option 💸 or some secret hack for getting custom on the cheap. They’re usually the same price (and often more). The catch? You end up with lower quality, fewer choices, limited to no design guidance, and little to no warranty. Plus, you’re making big decisions from tiny swatches and photoshopped images. Yikes!

It pays off to work with experienced experts with a showroom (hi, that’s us 👋) so you can touch, see, and operate window treatments in person before making a decision.

We will guide you in allocating your budget room by room 🛋️ (hello… garage shades do not need to be as special as your living room drapes!). And if you need to trim costs, we’ll show you how to do it without cutting corners—like finding beautiful dupe fabrics for higher-priced ones—so you can still achieve the look you love within a price point that feels good.

Plastic, clunky, noisy vertical blinds? That’s a no from us every time. They’re the quickest way to give your home cheap office vibes and we know that’s not your goal. 

Now, don’t get us wrong, there are beautiful modern vertical options out there. But those outdated plastic ones? Absolutely not. Tap the “Vertical Blind Alternatives” link in our bio for fresh ideas.

We’re not kidding when we say the blueprint phase is the best time to start planning window treatments for your new construction home. ✨

If you want hardwired automated shades now (or even just want the option later), pre-wiring during construction is your golden window of opportunity.

Wait until after the drywall goes up? You’ll be cutting into walls later—and trust us, it’s just as costly and messy as it sounds. 🛠️

Start early, save yourself the headache. ✔️
