@jeffp40 If you’re looking to automate your wooden shutters, Aqara offers some practical solutions that might fit your needs!
The Aqara Shutter Switch H2 EU is designed for shutter control and supports automation scenarios like scheduled opening/closing. For example, you can set a “Sunrise Wake” automation to open the shutter to a specific percentage (e.g., 20%) at a fixed time each morning, which aligns perfectly with your need to automate morning/evening adjustments. It works with the Hub M3 and can be paired with sensors for more intelligent control, like linking to window status or environmental conditions.
Additionally, the Aqara Smart Roller Shade Controller is an electric motor that can automate various types of curtains, including roller blinds. Paired with a hub, it enables remote control and timing functions—ideal for setting regular opening/closing schedules without manual effort.
Have you considered whether your wooden shutters are roller-style or another type? This might help narrow down the best fit! ![]()
Oh that would be interesting. I think it would need to be something like a smart mechanical arm.
