overview
overview
This trade is shade hardware plus lighting-control hardware, not a branded whole-home automation platform. Scope includes roller, dual-roller, cellular, drapery, and exterior-screen motors; battery, 24 V Class 2, or 120 V shade power; LED drivers and dimmers (0–10 V, phase-cut, or DALI where specified); occupancy or vacancy sensors; photocells; and timeclock or astronomical schedules. Integration is typically dry-contact, RS-485, IP, or a lighting-control panel.
methods
methods
Specify shade fabric (solar, room-darkening, or dual) and pocket depth before framing closes. Conceal shade power in headers. Match LED drivers to the existing control protocol instead of mixing 0–10 V and phase-cut on one circuit. Keep lighting control off fire-alarm and emergency-lighting circuits. Exterior screens need a wind-sensor lockout. Cost is project-specific.
