or 120Volt AC wired motors.
Rechargeable Motors require a charger. One 120V AC charger can be swapped between multiple shades. Solar chargers are also available.
24V DC low voltage motors require a constant power supply via either a shingle motor transformer (standard outlet) or a larger 24V DC power distribution panel (installed by an electrician).
Manual Clutch Tube Real Lift Systems
Chain Drive Roman Shades use a bead chain lift system to raise and lower the shade. Chains are provided with a tension device for child safety. The tension device must be installed for the shades to operate properly.
