    The ElectroShadeSkyLighter Shade is a specialized shade

    system designed for solar protection and room darkening

    requirements where horizontal, inclined, angled or bottom up

    type shading is required.

    A Tensioned SkyLighter Roller Shade is a motorized shade

    designed for applications that require a taught flat shade like

    that shown above.The system consists of two synchronized

    tubular motors and a special electronic control unit to control

    the tautness of the shade band.One motor is for fabric roll-up,

    the second motor is for cable take-up.The electronic unit

    controls each motor independently and maintains a dynamic

    (moving) tension on the shadeband as well as final tension

    adjustment thus minimizing fabric sag while the fabric is both

    moving and stationary. Adjustments to both dynamic and final

    tension are made via the electronic control. The size and weight

    of the shade will determine if idler rollers, guide cables and/or

    guide track are necessary.

    A Motor/Spring SkyLighter Roller Shade is a single tubular

    motor and spring system for angled or horizontal shades up to

    6 x 8 ft (183 x 245 cm). As the motor in the cable take up tube

    pulls the shadeband across the opening it creates resistance

    as it tightens the opposing spring, in the fabric tube, providing

    shadeband tautness. The size and weight of the shade willdetermine if idler rollers, guide cables and/or guide track

    are necessary.

    A Non-Tensioned SkyLighter Soft-Fold Shade is designed

    for angled, gravity-drop or horizontal shades which have the

    elegance of a traditional pleated roman shade.

    Gravity-Drop Soft-Fold Shades: The system has only a cable

    take up tube with tubular motor with a fixed pleat at the head

    rail. The cable take up tube raises the shade by lifting the drive

    cables attached to the hembar at the bottom of the shade.

    A separate set of Spacer Cables keep the pleats properly

    spaced to a series of 1" (25mm) tubes sealed inside the shade-

    cloth, while a Guide Cable keeps the shade tracking straight.

    Horizontal Soft-Fold Shades: The system consists of two

    cable take up tubes, one for each direction of travel, each with

    its own motor and drive cable and a fixed pleat at the head rail.

    A separate set of Spacer Cables keep the pleats properly

    spaced to a series of 1" (25mm) tubes sealed inside the shade-

    cloth, while a Guide Cable keeps the shade tracking straight.
