Conquering the Colorado Sun: Why We Trust Hunter Douglas to Protect Your Home

Living in the Southwest—whether you’re tucked away in the pines of Pagosa Springs or enjoying the views in Telluride—means dealing with one major neighbor: The Sun. At 6,500+ feet, our sunlight isn’t just “bright.” It’s intense. It fades your hardwood floors, cooks your living room by 2:00 PM, and makes your AC work overtime. At Axxis Audio, we believe your home should be your sanctuary, not a greenhouse. That’s why we don’t just do sound and security; we design custom window solutions using Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation.

Smart Shades for a High-Altitude Life

We’ve been in the custom electronics game for over 20 years, and we’ve seen it all. When it comes to window coverings, Hunter Douglas is the gold standard for a reason. Here’s how we integrate them into the Colorado lifestyle:

  • The “Sunrise Scenario”: Imagine waking up in Durango to your shades silently rising at 7:00 AM, letting in the natural morning light without you ever touching a remote.
  • Thermal Defense (Duette® Honeycomb): These are a game-changer for our winters. Their unique cellular design traps air, creating an extra layer of insulation. It keeps the heat in when it’s snowing in Silverton and the heat out when it’s blistering in Cortez.
  • UV Protection: Save your art and your furniture. We can program your shades to close automatically when the sun is at its peak, protecting your interior from 99% of harmful UV rays.

Automation That Actually Works

We aren’t “pushy sales guys.” We’re enthusiasts. When we recommend PowerView® Automation, it’s because it actually makes your life easier.

Hard-to-reach windows over the kitchen sink or high up in a vaulted ceiling? No problem. We integrate your shades with your smart home system (like Josh.ai or Control4) so you can control them with your voice, an app, or a sleek “Pebble” remote.

The Axxis Guarantee: Perfection or Bust

Installing motorized shades in a custom home takes precision. If the bracket isn’t level or the motor isn’t whispering, we aren’t done. Like everything we do at Axxis, we stay until it’s right. We’ve serviced the entire Four Corners area—from Bayfield to South Fork—with the same promise: if it doesn’t work perfectly, we’ll replace the gear until it does.

You’ve worked hard for that view. Let’s make sure you can enjoy it on your terms.

Stop by our shops in Durango or Pagosa Springs, or give us a shout. Let’s design a system that fits your home, your vibe, and your life.
