Title: Compatibility with Hunter Douglas "Applause" cellular shades (Easyrise cord)?
Post by: bryblind on August 07, 2018, 12:10:01 PM

I have some cellular shades and am looking to automate. It has a continuous string-style cord which I think is called Easyrise.  Do the Rollertrol motors come with the right adapters to be compatible with this system?

Hello, we couldn't say for sure if you could use our motors, but anything that has strings running through it to the hem bar can usually be motorized by using what we call a "bare tube winder" approach (at the top of the shade).

Probably the best example of this would be our article series on how to motorize Roman shades:
