Nice has launched Sun Shades, the company’s first line of custom smartsun shades.

A global leader in home and building management solutions, Nice offers a unique variety of roller shading solutions for the home technology professional, integrated with its Home Management platform.

“We’re excited to add our first line of sunshades to the Nice portfolio,” Nice North America vice president Jeff Shaw says.

“By expanding our offering with Sun Shades by Nice, we’re building a larger, more complete portfolio for our CI partners and providing our customers with a true whole home ecosystem.”

Sun Shades by Nice provides expansive design options with the same simple, flexible integration. Its advanced electronics offer enhanced versatility, enabling the sunshades to be integrated into a project at any stage of the building process.

Highly customisable with options for indoor and outdoor use, the custom roller shade line offers stunning finishes to complete any space. The range of sunshades for interior needs includes open roll, cassette, fascia and pocket mounting options as well as options for dual roller and total blackout shade. Offerings are available for more complex needs such as skylights, bottom-up applications commonly used in bedrooms and peaked or angled windows.

Powerful shade motors by Nice also enable more options for windows up to 5.4m.

Additionally, the line includes exterior options that extend the possibilities to outdoor spaces. With track-guided and cable-guided solutions for both vertical and horizontal shading needs, Sun Shades by Nice covers most needs for standard exterior window coverings while preventing heat transfer from solar radiation and drastically improving temperature control and energy use.

Sun Shades by Nice are powered by ultra-quiet and durable Nice tubular motors, which offer high reliability, include hembar alignment and can uniquely detect objects in both up and down directions. Nice tubular motors come in a wide variety including AC, DC and battery as well as both wired and RF and are currently available to OEM fabrication partners.

When paired with a Nice Home Management System, the discovery and setup functionality in the Nice Configurator application delivers simple, flexible installation for the home technology professional.
