Hey Everyone.
I'm looking to automate my existing draperies. They have a cord and am wondering if there is a motor I can connect to it that has Zwave.
TIA

Not sure if there are Z-Wave options, but Zemismart does have some Zigbee options:
Thanks Sebastien.
I was trying to connect the existing curtain cord to a motor. I don't really care if it is zigbee or zwave.
I still haven't found anything.

Are you looking for something like this?
I saw that one and wonder if it has enough torque to pull a drapery?
Good question! The description says:
Load-carrying capacity is only 2KG and torque is 0.5Nm.
Not recommended for large curtains
So I guess it would depend on how difficult it would be to pull them open/close with the cord.
I will typically buy the device and try it. If it works, awesome; if it doesn’t, I know for next time and can provide the info to other users here.
I have a motor in a roller shade and find that it works great, but I do not have one that pulls the cords, so can’t comment on that. Hopefully, someone else on the community that does will find this post and provide their feedback.
Nice! Notice however that it is Wifi, so I suspect it won’t work with Hubitat. I will likely require its own app to work.
