ShadeSliderâ„¢ is the brand name for our retractable skylight shades and bottom-up window shade systems. Please see our price calculator for pricing information.
These remote control skylight and bottom-up window shades for residential and commercial applications can be controlled with our wireless wall remotes, or our 5 channel hand-held remotes, or by phone, tablet and laptop with our BroadLink™ hub.
We also have Z-Wave interfacing, so you can use these units with hubs like Vera and Alexa™.
Available now, the radio controlled ShadeSliderâ„¢ system has an energy efficient 12v motor that also works well in motorhome and RV applications, especially for bottom-up window treatments. We provide 110/220v AC to DC power supplies for home applications.
