Lutron Adds Tilt to Venetian Blinds
Lutron’s Venetian Blinds with Intelligent Tilt Alignment, which have user-defined presets, can tilt based on the sun’s position.
The new product combines a traditional window covering with quiet motion and independent control of blind height and slat angle.
That means clients can automatically adjust the height of those blinds based on the sun’s position, or just to get a glimpse of what those pesky squirrels are doing in their birdbath.
Other features include user-defined presets, Intelligent Hembar Alignment, and restricted slat angles for private areas like the bedroom and/or bathroom.
Lutron offers Venetian blinds in more than 50 hardwood slats, 14 painted and aluminum options, 30 optional decorative tapes, and four valance styles. Color matching is also available.
The Venetian Blinds with Intelligent Tilt Alignment are compatible with the Sivoia QS and Sivoia QS line, including GRAFIK Eye QS, seeTouch QS keypads, Pico wireless controls and infrared remote controls.

Hi George: Thanks for the comment! Yes, the Venetians are available through integrators who currently offer Lutron shades. They first introduced them last fall at CEDIA.
As far as pricing, I asked the company and they said they said a 24x24 window would start at $854 for aluminum slats with tilt ladders, with wooden slats going for $1047… then something like wooden slats with decorative tapes is $1087. This is just an example. Hope this helps!
Rachel- Thanks for the response. Did you ask them about retrofitting existing blinds? I see on their site they are marketing this option too. I would be interested in knowing more about costs compared to Somfy. Thanks!



Are these going to be available through an integrator? Also, pricing compared to somfy rts blinds?
