Discover Eight Different Types of Lutron Motorized Shades

We love motorized shades, and we wonder how anyone can get along without them. Although “shades” might be the name most often associated with the motorized variety, you could attach most other window treatment terms to motorized (or powered, if you prefer) um, shades.

The most popular motorized shades are roller types, but one company goes way beyond those. Lutron is a world leader in lighting control as well as powered window treatments. Lutron’s mission is all about managing and controlling light, and regulating natural light is a big part of that.

Roller Shades

Roller shades are the most popular for powering. Lutron offers an incredible variety of materials and styles, including blackout, dimout, and sheer fabrics to let in as much or little light as you prefer. A key Lutron differentiator is their Hembar Alignment system, which ensures that your shades go up and down in perfect synchrony. 

Cable Guided Shades

Cable guided systems allow for precise control for angled applications, keeping shades in line with the window's exact angle. They are also useful in maintaining shades in place when there is significant airflow.

Tensioned Shades

Think you can’t power a skylight shade? Think again! Tensioned shades can go fully horizontal or at other angles. Lutron’s innovative design minimizes the light gaps around the fabric and eliminates cable guides found in different skylight shades to maximize the view when opened.

Horizontal Sheer Blinds

Sheers can be very elegant, offering privacy and light filtering while still allowing you to enjoy the view outside. Along with beautiful fabrics, Lutron adds their precise control, like vanes that tilt open and close with the touch of a button, as well as the industry's quietest motors.

Roman Shades

Interior designers love the simple elegance of Roman shades. You or your designer can choose the material you want and the number of pleats and Lutron supplies the power! Your shades will be fully custom and respond to your command by voice, apps, or wall-mounted keypads.

Honeycomb Shades

Honeycomb shades are popular for both aesthetics and their insulating properties. The cell design traps warm air inside in the winter and keeps away heat from the sun in the summer. When it's time to let the light in or enjoy a nighttime view, Lutron's precise control makes it easy. Combine your shades with the power of a smart home automation system for even greater energy efficiency in every season.

Wood Blinds

Who would have thought wood blinds could be powered? Lutron did. Lutron controls blind tilt to within 1/16^th of an inch. The Hembar Alignment feature maintains 1/8-inch alignment among your blinds. Set presets for individual shades, groups, or the whole house, and your blinds will be perfectly adjusted. Vary them throughout the day for perfect sun control without pulling a string.

Drapery Systems

Going beyond shade styles, Lutron offers motorized control for drapery track systems. Styles include pinch pleat and ripplefold, while the innovative Kirbé vertical system lifts drapes up for a streamlined look that lets in the view.
