Motorized when wanted, manual when not: new system brings remote and hands-on control to a single roller shade, now available on Renaissance
PHILADELPHIA, PA, UNITED STATES, September 17, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — HELIO by Worldwide Window Fashions today announced the launch of HybridMotion™, the world’s first dual-drive shade system, now available on its Renaissance roller shade collection. HybridMotion allows a single shade to be raised and lowered by remote or by hand, with no switch to flip and no clutch to release — and manual operation continues to work when the power is completely off.
Motorized shades have long asked homeowners to choose between convenience and control. A remote-operated shade only works by motor, and a manual shade offers no automation at all. HybridMotion is designed to remove that trade-off entirely: the same shade responds to a remote when automation is wanted and to a hand when it isn’t.
Han – CEO of HELIO “Every motorized shade on the market makes you choose. HybridMotion is the first one that doesn’t. We built it because we want everyone to have a choice to interact with natural light — with or without power.”
Engineered for everyday use
HybridMotion is built around a whisper-quiet motor suited to bedrooms, offices, and open living spaces, and a high-RPM drive that moves the shade noticeably faster than standard motors. A five-channel remote controls shades individually or as a group within a room. The system runs on a built-in rechargeable battery, requires no external wiring, and is engineered for low power consumption to extend runtime between charges.
Available on Renaissance
HybridMotion launches on Renaissance, HELIO’s premium roller shade collection, which offers more than 370 fabric and color options with minimal light gaps and smooth, consistent operation. Renaissance shades equipped with HybridMotion are available now through HELIO’s network of authorized dealers.
