The InSync Skylight Shading System 2 designed specifically for applications where a very large Skylight shade is needed. The maximum sizes reach up to 13' wide and 20' high. The SolarSmart Skylight Shading System is simple and elegant. A tubular gearmotor is mounted at one end of The SolarSmart Skylight Shading System, connected to the opposite end by steel fabric support cables. Fabric is driven by the motor and draw cables. The included Spring Assist cassette helps provide maximum tension.

The InSync Skylight Shading System 2 can be installed in several orientations: incline-up, incline-down, vertical-up, vertical-down, or horizontal.

Fabric Attachment
Fabric retainers slide into ¾" pockets at each end of fabric, then fit into roller extrusion and hem bar. Fabric orientation shall always be from the top (back) of roller.

Hardware
513/16" x 513/16" fabric/roller endcaps come complete with motor adapter bracket. White powder coat finish. Draw Cable/Guide Cable brackets are provided with pulley assemblies. Hem Bar provides an attachment point for the shade fabric, with built-in pulley assemblies for routing of Draw Cable.

Guide cables are 3/16" 7x19 strand, galvanized, non-coated steel cable with 3/16" copper Nicopress Stop. Draw Cables are 1/16" O.D., 7x7 strand wire rope. Cables are low-stretch, high-fatigue, and nylon coated.

Horizontal spring steel stays, .005" thick x 1" wide, are installed at regular intervals and covered. This system enables the shade to withstand reasonable air pressure differentials and gravity.

I have 2 bathroon skylights and they can go up or down either one but are much to high to move with out a pole and I think they should be in a track to maintain shape and move the light has a 18 inch inside wood area to bring it through the insulation and rafter, etc. can that be done? Carol
