These solutions go far beyond standard window treatments — they integrate light management, privacy, and smart technology to create beautifully functional spaces. At Luxe Drapery and Shades, we specialize in offering custom Lutron systems throughout Los Angeles, California, with a level of expertise and licensing that sets us apart.
Whether you’re renovating a modern home in Beverly Hills, outfitting a high-rise in Downtown L.A., or designing a new build in Calabasas, Lutron shades and lighting control offer seamless functionality, elegant style, and unmatched convenience. And with our team licensed and bonded by the California State Contractors State License Board, we’re one of the few window treatment companies in L.A. equipped to step in during the rough stages of construction, providing expert prewiring, pocket installation, and full automation integration.
What Are Lutron Shades and Lighting Control Systems?
Lutron Shades and lighting control systems are an advanced automation solution designed to give homeowners precise control over natural and artificial light. Lutron offers motorized window treatments (shades, drapes, blinds) and integrated lighting systems (switches, dimmers, keypads, sensors) that can be controlled via app, remote, keypad, or even voice.
The beauty of Lutron is in its flexibility. Whether you’re looking to:
-
Block out sunlight during hot L.A. afternoons,
-
Set automated scenes that adjust throughout the day,
-
Or integrate shading with whole-home smart lighting systems…
Lutron delivers all this with whisper-quiet motors, sleek aesthetics, and full customization.
At Luxe Drapery and Shades, we’re proud to carry Lutron’s full product line, including:
-
Sivoia QS shades
-
Triathlon battery-powered shades
-
Lutron Homeworks integration
-
RadioRA 3 systems
-
And more.
Why Los Angeles Homeowners Choose Lutron Shades and Lighting Control
The Los Angeles lifestyle demands versatility. Homes here must balance beauty, comfort, energy efficiency, and smart technology. Here’s why so many of our clients turn to Lutron Shades and lighting control for their window covering and lighting needs:
1. Total Light Control
From Pacific Palisades to Pasadena, the California sun can be both a blessing and a challenge. Lutron lets you manage natural light with precision — whether you’re screening harsh rays in the afternoon or softly illuminating a media room with blackout shades and dimmable LED lighting.
2. Seamless Integration with Smart Home Platforms
Lutron integrates effortlessly with smart home systems like Control4, Crestron, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, and Amazon Alexa. Our Los Angeles clients love the ability to manage all their lighting and shades from one app or control hub.
3. Enhanced Energy Efficiency
In sunny Southern California, managing heat gain is crucial. With Lutron Shades and lighting control, you can automate your system to close shades during the hottest part of the day, reducing A/C usage and lowering utility bills.
4. Aesthetic Flexibility
Lutron doesn’t just do function — it does style. With a vast library of fabrics, colors, and hardware finishes, your shades will look as good as they perform. This is especially important in architecturally significant Los Angeles homes, where design integrity matters.
Why Luxe Drapery and Shades Is L.A.’s Go-To for Lutron Projects
Unlike many retail window treatment companies, Luxe Drapery and Shades is equipped to handle construction-grade Lutron installations — the kind that involves blueprints, framing coordination, and hardwiring through power panels. Here’s what sets us apart:
We Work Directly from Architectural Plans
On high-end new builds and remodels, we often receive RFPs (Requests for Pricing) from contractors that include full architectural blueprints. Our team performs a detailed takeoff, measuring and identifying all window openings, and provides an accurate, turnkey bid — a level of detail most shade companies simply can’t match.
Licensed to Work in the Rough Stages of Construction
Because we are licensed and bonded by the California State Contractors State License Board, we are legally allowed to work on active construction sites. This means we can:
-
Install shade pockets before drywall,
-
Run low-voltage wiring during framing,
-
Coordinate directly with framers and electricians.
As a licensed contractor, we also provide a 1-year installation warranty, a standard mandated by the state and an added layer of peace of mind for our clients.
Specialized in Pocket Installations
Many high-end homes in Los Angeles now call for recessed window shades — hidden within ceiling pockets for a completely minimalist look. We supply and install pocket headboxes, closure plates, and hanger flaps, ensuring your Lutron shades tuck seamlessly into your ceiling.
The Difference Between Retail Installations and Full-Scope Construction Projects
Typical window treatment retailers aren’t involved in new construction projects. They don’t read blueprints. They don’t coordinate framing. They don’t install pockets. And they definitely don’t hardwire 24V motors into a central panel.
That’s where Luxe Drapery and Shades stands out.
We bridge the gap between electrical, framing, automation, and interior design. For homes integrating Lutron Sivoia QS, Homeworks, or RadioRA 3, this level of coordination is not optional — it’s essential.
Lutron Sivoia QS and Homeworks Integration
The combination of Lutron Shades and lighting control through Sivoia QS and Homeworks creates a smart, efficient, and luxurious living experience.
-
Sivoia QS provides ultra-quiet, wired motorized shades with support for full automation and scene programming.
-
Lutron Homeworks controls every light and shade in the home — offering unmatched customizability, including scheduled scenes, occupancy sensing, and remote access.
We can program your lighting and shades so your morning routine, movie nights, and even vacation mode are fully automated.
The Prewire Process for Lutron Shades and Lighting Control
For clients building new homes in Los Angeles, the process of integrating Lutron Shades and lighting control starts early — usually during the rough framing stage. Here’s how it works:
-
Architectural Takeoff
We analyze your plans and identify every window needing shade coverage. -
Shade and Lighting Design
We work with your designer and builder to select the right shading products, pocket locations, and lighting zones. -
Low Voltage Prewiring
Our team installs power and data lines for 24V motors — typically hardwired to a central power panel located in an equipment closet. -
Pocket Framing Coordination
We provide specs for pocket headboxes and coordinate framing to match — ensuring every shade recesses perfectly. -
Final Installation & Programming
Once drywall and finishes are complete, we install your Lutron motorized shades and program the system for optimal performance.
Lutron Shades and Lighting Control for Remodels and Retrofits
Not building new? No problem. Many Los Angeles homeowners are adding Lutron Shades and lighting control to existing homes. While recessed pockets may not be possible, we can still:
-
Install surface-mounted fascia or decorative valances
-
Use Lutron Triathlon battery-powered shades for clean retrofits
-
Integrate shades and lights with your existing smart home platform
