drapery controls. The Ultra-Quiet Glydea Drapery track systems replace the cords and fling rods with control
solutions to remotely operate your drapery from in the home or anywhere in the world.
This solution is perfect for condominiums with large expanses of windows and can be combined with motorized
roller shades to give you total control of light, privacy and energy savings.

Whatever your drapery header style, the height or width of your opening, the powerful 110VDC or 24VDC
rechargeable motors will quietly and smoothly open and close your drapery on command.
