Motor Information
The WireFree Somfy ST28 RTS Shade Motor is a Radio Frequency based 12VDC motor that is optionally powered with an external Lithium-ion battery pack and is designed to be used with roller shades.The ST28 has improved on prior versions by adding soft stop, adjustable speed, improved sound, and a LED Low Battery indicator. The ST28 motor uses the same power connections and adapters as the R28/RU28 motor so upgrading to the new version is easy. This Somfy motor is a simple, easy to use and easy to install solution for your shade motorization needs.
Special Features - The ST28 RTS Motor uses radio frequency based controls 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. This Somfy ST28 motor stores the limits set by the remote controls and memory is not lost when power is disconnected. With the momentary press of a button you can command the shade to go to the Full Up, Full Down and a customer specified preferred "My" position. No need to hold the button down and wait for the shade to reach the desired position. Each motor can be configured to be controlled by more than one remote control so you can have a remote in the bedroom and the living room to control the same shades. The Somfy RTS advanced RF control technology offers the user simple individual or group control as well as a host of automation options like Timers, Sun Sensors, RS232 Control, Ipad, Android etc.

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, ST28, ST30, ST40 and ST50 Motorized Shades.
