Motorized Shutters, TLC by KIRTZ

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Motorized Shutters

We are proud to introduce TLC, or technical louver control, our new motorized shutters from Kirtz Shutters.

In development for over two years, this motorized feature is now available on Kirtz plantation shutters. It can also be retrofitted to existing Kirtz plantation shutters.

TLC is unique geared system of motorization that offers drastic improvements over the technology that has been available before today.

The SYSTEM
We use a patent pending right angle gearbox contained in the stile of the shutter to adjust the louvers. Premium quality brass gears resist corrosion and offer excellent durability.

A small, 6-Volt motor drives the gear box that turns the louvers. The
4 AA Lithium batteries that power the motor insure a long life of operation and are easily replaceable for minimal maintenance.

The motor operates with Radio Frequency transmission. This allows transmission from up to 65′ away from the motor, making motorized shutters a perfect solution for second story, difficult to operate windows.

AVAILABILITY
TLC by Kirtz is available on shutter panels that at least 12″ tall, and up to 120″ tall.

The System is compatible with standard tilt rods and the hidden tilt option, it is truly a versatile product.
