| Hunter Douglas PowerView | Partly works | Partly in Home Middle rail not exposed as secondary shade | Middle/top rail ignored by integrationSaved copyThe problem Hunter Douglas has top-down/bottom-up shades in which they have both a bottom rail and a top rail and both can be moved. They also have a type of shade called Duolite which is similar except it has a movable middle rail instead (and a second fabric above that). They both control the same way in the PowerView iOS app. And Hunter Douglas's official HomeKit support exposes these as a device with a primary shades service (for the bottom rail) and a secondary shades service (for the middle rail). The Home Accessory Hunter Douglas integration almost completely ignores the middle rail. … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #71891 · 2022-05 |

In ReReHome
Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
