On-Wall Keypads

Traditional wall controls for lights and fans are convenient for a reason: They’re at arm’s length as soon as you enter or exit any room of your home. You can enjoy the convenience of on-wall keypads for controlling your motorized shades, too.

You’ll have simple, sophisticated shading control for each particular space. You can even add custom-engraved buttons for lighting control and smart thermostats within the same wall keypad to make your home more comfortable at the touch of a button.

Mobile App

Motorized shading systems like Lutron also offer mobile app control of all your window treatments. Additionally, you can integrate your shades with your Elan home automation system and command your shades from the Elan mobile app. You’ll have access to shades in rooms you aren’t physically in, even when you’re not home and want to adjust your window shades from afar to make it appear as if your house is occupied.

Want to lower your shades after you’ve sat down to watch a movie and discovered there’s a glare on the screen from the sun? Lower them right from your smart device without having to get up.

Preset Schedules

What’s the ultimate form of convenient control? Preset schedules, of course. If your daily routine is typically the same from day to day, why not take advantage of a preset schedule, so you don’t even have to think about lowering and raising your shades?

Program your motorized shades to open at 7 a.m. so the sun can wake you up, lower to 50% in the afternoon when your home starts to heat up, and close when the sunsets. That’s hands-free control at its finest.
