WHAT WE OFFER

Our automated shades and draperies operate where handcrafted traditions meet cutting-edge technology. From automating a single window to an entire home, whether new construction, remodel or retrofit, we have motor and control solutions for any project.

HOW WE WORK

AUTOMATION PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

As a complimentary service, let our Automation Project Managers (APM) help you design, specify and manage your projects, simplifying the process of ordering and automating windowcoverings. They can collaborate with your team of architects, builders, installers and integrators to help you ensure your project is properly specified.

STEPS

1. Fill out an Automation Worksheet or call 888.582.8780 for details.
2. Submit the completed Worksheet to our APM at hfautomation@hartmannforbes.com 
3. Your APM will design an automation solution customized to your project needs and preferences. 
4. A quote will be delivered for your approval, once weave and window specifications have been provided.

 MOTORS

We automate our windowcoverings using only top-of-the-line motors and components from Lutron® and Somfy®.

WIRELESS

Our Motor-Clutch is a wire-free motor that runs on AA lithium batteries. It is an ideal automation solution for retro-fit situations where power cannot otherwise be provided.

QUIET

We offer a number of near-silent motors that operate at a whisper (44dBA at three feet). These quiet motors can work without disturbing tranquility within a room.

POWERFUL

With our wide range of motors, we can specify a motor that efficiently drives nearly any shade dimension. Shade size is no longer a limitation.

 CONTROLS

From simple wireless remotes to complete integration within a home automation system, we can help develop a control solution as unique as the shades in the home.

WIRELESS CONTROLS

Our remotes, keypads, sensors and timers operate wirelessly using Radio Technology. Without needing to run wire, shades can be operated with the simple push of a button.

SUN SENSORS & TIMERS

Shades and draperies can be programmed to open and close automatically with weather conditions or at specific times without anyone having to choose to operate them.

INTEGRATION

Our motors can be integrated into the most advanced home automation and lighting control systems and then programmed to custom preferences.
