Best Blinds, Curtains, curtain rollers,... anything that works with Smartthings

Devices & Integrations

Different people have different needs and requirements (and budgets!), So there’s no one “best” answer. There are a number of choices. :sunglasses:

Zebra blinds has a Z wave line which works well with SmartThings and is a popular choice. The distributor is active in this community so you can ask any questions you have before purchase, which is also helpful.

And the Lutron Serena line works with SmartThings through IFTTT or Harmony or through the official SmartThings/Lutron integration. In all three cases you will need the Lutron SmartBridge as well (one Bridge for up to 40 Lutron Devices).

Those are probably the two simplest “out-of-the-box” integrations, with the zebra blinds line offering the most features in their integration.

There are a number of individual motors that can work with SmartThings, but the set up will be much more complicated. You can look at the project reports on the quick browse lists in the community – created wiki on the “shades” List and get some ideas about what other people have done. :sunglasses:
