Helser Brothers has added the Glydea Ultra 50 WireFree Zigbee motor, powered by Somfy, to its VERVO line of motorized drapery solutions. This motor is designed for people who want motorized drapery without extra wiring or bulky parts that stand out. It pairs with the custom drapery hardware that Helser Brothers already makes, so designers and homeowners can match motorized function with the style they want. The focus of this new option is quiet operation, smart control, and a clean look around the window.
The Glydea Ultra 50 is a wire free motor that works with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home. Users can open and close drapery with a remote, a smartphone app, or simple voice commands. Connection with the TaHoma by Somfy app gives real time details such as drapery position and battery level, which removes guesswork about where the drapery is or when it needs to be charged. This kind of smart home link aims to fit into systems that many people already use, instead of asking them to learn a separate, isolated setup.
The motor is built for quiet and steady movement. Its sound level is listed at about 40 dB, which is suited for bedrooms, living rooms, or offices where noise is a concern. The compact motor can move drapery panels up to 110 pounds, or 50 kilograms, and includes soft start and soft stop features that control the motion at the beginning and end of travel. This helps protect both the fabric and the hardware over time, while keeping the motion smooth. A full USB C charge is expected to last up to nine months, so users do not have to deal with constant charging or hardwired power. The product is backed by a five year Somfy warranty, which signals that it is built for long term use in homes and commercial spaces.
Helser Brothers presents the Glydea Ultra 50 as part of its goal to expand motorized options for the design trade. By pairing this motor with their custom hardware, they want to give designers a way to offer motorized drapery that still looks tailored to each project. Smart drapery control can support comfort and privacy by letting users adjust panels throughout the day with little effort. Timers and scenes in connected systems can also help control light and heat, which can play a role in basic energy use when used with other window treatments and building choices.
The company, based in Chandler, Arizona, has been making custom drapery hardware for almost thirty years and has built its name with designers and workrooms around the United States. The addition of the Glydea Ultra 50 to the VERVO line shows an ongoing move toward more motorized drapery and home control options. Those who want more details about the motor, who want to sign up for the training, or who want to apply as a Helser Brothers trade member can contact the company through its trade channels or media contact information.
