2. Introducing Venetian Blinds with Intelligent Tilt Alignment ™
Lutron Venetian blinds provide independent control of blind height and slat angle,
putting a new tilt on the timeless look of this traditional window covering.
Superior functionality is revolutionizing the category of automated horizontal blinds.
Now you can have optimal privacy, while still preserving your view and controlling
the amount of sunlight in a space. With one button press you can change the amount
or angle of light streaming into a room—for unmatched versatility any time of day.
• Set your favorite blind height and tilt angle for the slats (called a preset)—shades will automatically
adjust to that height and tilt angle with the touch of a button.
• You can also set more than one preset, giving you a range of options for automatically adjusting blinds.
• Intelligent Tilt Alignment ensures that the slat angle between adjacent blinds remains
within 1/16th of an inch of each other for a clean look.
• Venetian blind controls (keypads and remotes) feature buttons for adjusting slat tilt angle.
With one touch, you can precisely position the slats.

Venetian blinds are available for Sivoia® QS
and Sivoia QS Wireless systems.

7. Frequently Asked Questions
What systems are compatible with Venetian blinds?
Venetian blinds are available for Sivoia® QS and Sivoia QS Wireless. For integration into
RadioRA® 2, HomeWorks® QS, and Quantum® please contact shadingquotes@lutron.com.
To integrate Venetian blinds into a HomeWorks Illumination system, please see Application
Note, available online, and contact Technical Support for details.
What is the standard lead time?
The standard lead time is 30 business days.
Do Venetians have a fire retardant (FR) rating?
Wooden blinds are not FR rated. However, it is possible to treat the material or use
a non-wood material such as aluminum or a wood substitute to achieve FR rating status.
Wood substitute Venetian blinds are not standard in the Lutron line, but can be sourced
as a custom. For more information, please contact shadingquotes@lutron.com.
What is “stack”?
Stack results when the slats of the Venetian blinds amass on top of each other
when the blind is fully open, blocking the top portion of the window. To preserve
the full outdoor view, simply mount the blind above the window frame, making
sure to account for additional system height.
This parameter is reported in the shade configuration tool (SCT) and only includes
the height of the slats and bottom rail—valance and headrail are not included in this
calculation. To calculate total height from the ceiling to the base of the bottom rail,
add 3.75 inches to the reported stack height.
