Commercial motorized shades installed in the Oak Hill Country Club ballroom

Oak Hill Country Club is known throughout the Rochester area for its historic setting, championship golf, exceptional amenities, and elegant event spaces. As part of the club’s recent renovation and expansion, its newly designed ballroom offers a refined setting for weddings, corporate gatherings, private celebrations, and member events.

Drapery Industries was proud to contribute to this space by providing new commercial motorized shades, designed and manufactured in Rochester, NY, to compliment the ballroom’s architecture while giving staff convenient control over natural light.

A Ballroom Designed for Memorable Events

Located in Pittsford, New York, Oak Hill Country Club has been an important part of the Rochester community for generations. Its recent clubhouse improvements included upgraded dining and event areas, outdoor gathering spaces, and a new state-of-the-art ballroom designed to accommodate large events.

A ballroom of this size must work for many different occasions, schedules, and room configurations. Bright daylight may be welcome during a luncheon or reception, while reduced glare and softer lighting may be preferred for presentations, formal dinners, or evening celebrations.

The new motorized shades from Drapery Industries make those adjustments fast and simple.

Commercial Motorized Shades for Better Light Control

Natural light can make a ballroom feel open and inviting, but uncontrolled sunlight can also create glare, uneven lighting, excess heat, and discomfort for guests. These issues can become especially noticeable around large windows and during events that use projection screens, displays, photography, or video.

With custom motorized window shades from Drapery Industries, Oak Hill staff can adjust the window coverings without manually operating each shade. This provides more consistent light control throughout the ballroom and makes it easier to change the atmosphere as an event progresses.

The streamlined appearance of the shades also integrates seamlessly in the ballroom’s refined interior. When raised, they preserve views and natural light. When lowered, they provide a clean, coordinated appearance across the windows.
