Convenient Operation
Smart shades that reduce your effort
Automate® motors offer a reduction in time and effort normally required for the operation of outdoor shades. Using a crank gear to open and close your outdoor shades is a traditional control that requires significant physical effort, whereas motorising your outdoor shades can remove the effort and give you back the valuable time to enjoy your outdoor space.
Unique to Automate, the FT Series of motors combined with the Automate Push remote series and Rollease Acmeda’s locking devices enable you to create a smart and sophisticated Zipscreen outdoor shading system. Simply activate the sequence with your Push remote to close and lock the shade while tensioning the fabric.
