Motor Information
The Somfy Sonesse 40 (ST40) is part of Somfy's line-up of quiet Sonesse motors. The ST40 RTS 120VAC motor is a quiet (42dBa) radio frequency based motor for medium to very large shades with its 4Nm lifting capacity. The Sonesse 40 motor is designed for tubes as small as a 40mm smooth wall tube (not supported by AVO) and is upwards compatible with more popular sizes like the the 2" Rollease internally ribbed tubes. This motor is perfect for shades 23" to 120" wide tip to tip including brackets.
Radio Frequency: The Sonesse 50 shade motor is Radio Frequency based so you don't have to point the remote at it every time you want to control it. In fact, you can control the shades in your living room from your bedroom completely wirelessly. The motor stores the limits set by the remote controls. With the momentary press of a button you can command the shade to go to the Full up, Full Down and to a customer specified preferred position. No need to hold the button down and wait for the shade to reach the desired position.
Mutiple Controls: The shade motor is controlled via Somfy's advanced (RTS) RF technology which offers the user simple individual or group control. Each motor can be controlled by more than one remote control. You can use one remote for local room based control and another remote for whole home control. The addition of the Somfy Mylink mobile device interface provides scheduled timers and conntrol from your phone or tablet from almost anywhere. Not at home and forgot to close a shade, not a problem with the MyLink.

Shade Coverings - Fascia, Valances, Cornices
Due to the possible options Fascia, Valances and Cornices are offered separately from the shades and can be purchased in our Shade Coverings page.
A couple exmples of the our offerings are listed below.
Classic IB Valance
The Classic IB shade valance provides a simple clean covering for your window treatment needs. This valance is offered in a large variety of materials so it can blend in or provide a nice textural contrast. This valance is constructed of shade material and has a hemmed pocket with an aluminum hem bar. One of the nice features of this valance is its soft nature. It can be easily moved out of the way to gain access to the window treatment behind it. The Classic IB Valance is available with a height of 5" to 8" and is offered with two different header options to suit your mounting needs. The 1" D x 3/4" H header can be used where you have adequate depth to mount the valance in front of the shade or you can choose 3 1/2"D x 3/4" H header that you would mount in the window frame before mounting the shade and then mount the shade to the header board. The valance is mounted to the header board using staples so it can be dismantled, modified and reassembled by the users to further suit their needs.
Fascia
The Rollease RFP Series aluminum fascia panel simply snaps into the fascia panel brackets for easy access to the roller shade components. The RFP series fascia panel can be used for inside or outside frame mount applications. This fascia panel covers the front and bottom to hide the shade assembly. The back and top of the fascia are left open. The use of this fascia panel forces the shade to use regular roll. Regular roll puts the shade material closest to the window. The 4" Fascia panel is our standard size offered which is compatible with our Chain & Clutch Shades, Somfy LT30, R28, ST30, ST40 and ST50 Motorized Shades.
