Wood blinds feature Powertilt motorization by Somfy that allows the louvers to be tilted using a remote control. Raising and lowering the blinds must be done manually with a standard cordlock or spring operator.

Shutters rely largely on manual operation, which is part of their charm. However, Palm Beach Polysatin Shutters by Hunter Douglas offer the Powerview motorization system to tilt the louvers. Powerview technology integrates easily with many other popular smart-home systems like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
Like wood blinds, horizontal metal blinds feature Powertilt motorization by Somfy to tilt louvers using the PowerView system. Raising and lowering the blinds must be done manually with a Standard cordlock operator.
Vertical blinds are motorized with a vertical tilt system to open and close the louvers, and in some cases, a motorized track to traverse, or move the blind horizontally.
