Why Your Motorized Blinds Stutter or Stall: Troubleshooting 5 Common Failures
October 23, 2025
Indoor blinds deliver dependable light control with a simple, timeless design. From wood to faux wood options, blinds are selected based on durability, ease of use, and room conditions. We help you choose materials and controls that perform well for everyday living, not just day one.
Finding the right window blinds for your Dallas home can be challenging, and then making sure they fit properly and installing them throughout your home can be time consuming and stressful. That’s where we step in.
We have a simple 3 step approach:

When choosing window blinds, we’re often looking for a balance between privacy and light control. It’s not just about keeping prying eyes out, but also about managing the flow of natural light into our spaces. We’re after a solution that lets us control the mood and atmosphere of our rooms with the simple twist of a rod or pull of a cord. The beauty of window blinds is that they offer us a world of possibilities.
Whether we’re cozying up for a movie night and need near-complete darkness, or we want to flood our living room with the warm afternoon sun, blinds are our magic wand. We can fully close them, tilt the slats, or completely open them. It’s this flexibility that allows us to transform our homes into private sanctuaries or spaces filled with light and life.
What’s more, the type of blinds we choose can greatly impact our control over privacy and light. For instance, vertical blinds offer greater light control, especially for larger windows or patio doors. On the other hand, cellular shades, with their unique honeycomb design, are perfect for insulation and privacy, blocking out the outside world while keeping our spaces cozy. It’s clear that when it comes to privacy and light control, window blinds aren’t just a practical choice; they’re an elegant solution that gives us the power to shape our environment to our liking.

Installation completed by Zinga's employee who are experts in their craft. Free yourself of the stress of installing.
We love our new shades! Absolutely beautiful, and the black out shades really are black out. Casey and Jessica were great to work with, very communicative. And the shades were ready before originally estimated! Dylan and Jonathan did a fantastic job on the install. Very efficient and tidy, they got those shades up so fast. Highly recommend Zinga’s.
I have a small patio that faces east and gets full sun from sunrise to about 1:00 pm. It made it hard to enjoy my morning coffee and inspirational reading on the patio. The retractable screen has been a God send. It looks good and works as intended. It’s given me my patio back. The sales team, Casey and Jessica, were professional and kept me informed on the progress of my order. It was reassuring working with them.
Allen went way beyond today. He figured out a way to customize my valances because it wasn't working the ordinary way. Zingas has been an amazing company to work with and everyone of their employees have gone over the top to make sure I was completely satisfied. I can not say enough good things about them and without a doubt would highly recommend them!
Zinga’s installation team of Gary and Terry installed my new retractable awning today, despite 4” inches of snow on my patio. The install went smoothly and their training was obvious. Communication went great and the training on the controller and iPhone app was effective. Great job by Gary and Terry! Also would add, Zinga’s scheduling team was very helpful in working around a couple of vacation and holiday scheduling conflicts.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 I had a motorized patio screen installed by Zinga, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, the service was professional, efficient, and high-quality. A special thank-you to Jessica, who was my main point of contact. She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable. She kept me updated throughout the process, answered all my questions, and made everything smooth and stress-free. The installation team did excellent work—the screen looks fantastic and operates flawlessly. I highly recommend Zinga to anyone looking for quality products and exceptional customer service.
Phillip knows his products and professionally installs them! From his consult before purchase to the final test drive we are well pleased. Considering a motorized screen? Look no further.
I am a researcher and met with multiple companies before selecting Zinga. By far, they have the best warranty on screens and motors. Their teams from with Casey Sutton sales, assessment to installation were top-notch. These guys install screens every day they know exactly what they’re doing so professional. Once the installation is done they’re still working. Jessica, my customer service rep reached out multiple times to make sure everything was working properly, and I was completely satisfied. I’m telling all my neighbors about them.
I received regular updates on when my screen would be ready and confirming installation date. My sales person Casey was very informative and personable and I enjoyed talking to him. Now that it’s installed it is exactly what I envisioned. The installation crew were polite and did a beautiful job of installing and cleaning up. Very happy with the screen.
Allen Cory and Johnathan did an outstanding install at my place. All screens function great. Superb Job on the cedar match to my existing project. Great to see such motivated hard working guys!
Zingas did a phenomenal job making and installing my window coverings. The sales people and installers were professional and extremely nice. I just had to add photos to show the finished product. Call them, you’ll be thrilled with the results.
Purchasing my plantation shutters and motorized shades with Zinga’s was a smooth and stress free experience. My consultant Adrian was very professional and knowledgeable and the installers Phil and Todd were great as well. They were efficient and did a wonderful job installing my window treatments and cleaned up as they worked. Zinga’s offers great quality products for a competitive price and provides amazing customer service. I highly recommend this company for window treatments!
