Hunter Douglas is expanding its PowerView Automation line with the new Powerview Motorized Draper Hardware featuring a new motor for seamless, hands-free drapery control alongside PowerView shades, blinds and shutters.
The New York-based Hunter Douglas says integrators and homeowners can now manage all window treatments through one unified system using the PowerView app or popular smart home platforms like Control4, Crestron, Savant, Josh.AI, Brilliant, URC, RTI and more.
The company says the hardware can also be controlled with voice assistants or the Pebble remote.
In a statement, Scott Stephenson, senior director of product for global motorization at the company, said drapery has long been a cornerstone of window treatment design.
“Amid growing demand for smarter, more customized smart home and design solutions, incorporating drapery into our automation ecosystem was a no-brainer,” Stephenson said.  “Our PowerView Motorized Drapery Hardware makes it simple to control drapery—independently or alongside other PowerView window treatments—and expands the opportunity to enhance aesthetics, privacy, energy efficiency, and security within our trusted PowerView platform.”

Curated by renowned designer Lori Weitzner, the hardware designs pair with the wide range of fabrics and textures offered through Carole Fabrics Drapery, ranging from clean neutrals and refined patterns to rich textures and vibrant colors.
 “Collaborating with Hunter Douglas on this collection allowed me to blend creative vision with practical functionality, ensuring that each piece embodies my unique design perspective while meeting the exceptional quality and performance standards of Hunter Douglas,” said Weitzner, in a statement. “This process represents a harmonious fusion of imagination and precision, bringing our shared vision to life with both elegance and practicality.”
