The SM Automatic Model 5 motor represents a technological breakthrough in Cord Drive Drapery Motors. This motor provides for the addition of motorization to existing draperies, as well as to new treatments; with the same advanced control
options as our Direct Drive Motors. When motorization is called for, this model offers an easy and inexpensive way to modernize and add convenience to any environment. Please note that electrical wiring requirements are different than previous SM Automatic Cord Drive Motors.

For light to heavy weight draperies, and designed to be used with cut-to-measure corded rods or track. Typically mounted on a wall directly (30 to 108 inches) beneath the rod. The cord feeds through the motor housing and loops around a drivewheel. The drivewheel turns clockwise or counter-clockwise, which causes the draperies to open or close. Cord Drive Drapery Motors have internal limit switches, and are available with recessed or surface mount low voltage switches, home automation systems, or with wireless remote control (radio frequency or infrared). Cord Drive Drapery Motors will not operate properly with a curved track.
