FlexShade® ZIP XL with Solar Panel

The FlexShade® ZIP XL with Solar Panel comes fully pre-wired with a motor, battery, and solar panel for simple installation without line voltage.

FlexShade® ZIP XL with Solar Panel brings energy-efficient automation with a plug-and-play solution for motorized roller shades, integrating a DC motor, solar panel, and embedded battery in a pre-wired system. No line voltage connection is required, making it ideal for applications where wiring access is limited. Advanced power management enables charging even without direct sunlight, and adjustable wings help ensure the solar panel faces the sun for maximum power output. FlexShade® ZIP XL is our largest ZIP shade, with an integrated cradle support system for wider widths. The ZIP feature keeps fabric in the side channels —ideal for garages, patios, porches, pool houses, and outdoor commercial food service areas.

ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 Child Safety Standard

Effective June 1, 2024, in compliance with the updated ANSI/WCMA A100.1-2022 child safety standard, all Draper® window shades operated by a bead chain will be furnished with a tensioned hold-down device that is permanently attached and partially disables the product if not installed correctly. This hold-down should be installed with tension on the chain.

All bead chain operated window shades will include:

  • Permanently installed spring-loaded tensioned hold-down device
  • Approved permanent warning label attached
  • Approved mechanical fasteners for the tension device included. Screws provided are not suitable for all mounting surfaces. The installer is responsible for secure mounting using appropriate hardware for the site conditions. Consult with contractors and builders as needed.

If the tension device is not installed with appropriate tension on the bead chain, the shade will be rendered partially inoperable. If installed properly, the tension device will prevent the creation of a hazardous loop and will maintain tension on the bead chain.

Approved permanent warning label
