Automating your blinds is very simple, the automation will be electric. Electric or motorised window decoration has two major advantages: you no longer need to fiddle with pull cords or turning rods and the blinds last longer. So: more comfort and a longer life. How can you automate your blinds? We will explain.
To automate your blinds, they should have a motor. Somfy tubular motors for indoor blinds are of high European quality. As a result of the soundless technology, these motors can even be used in your bedroom. Raising and lowering the blinds is done with a soft start and a soft stop, so the fabric of the blinds and the motor last longer.
At our partners, you can order ready-made electric roller blinds, which you can install yourself (or have a professional installer fit them, of course).
If you already have roller blinds that you are totally attached to, but you would like to treat yourself to the convenience of automated roller blinds, we recommend asking your local Somfy dealer about the possibilities. They can give you tailored advice and help you convert your current blinds to automated blinds.
By motorising your electric roller blinds or other window decoration, your pull-up cords will never be tangled again; they are simply no longer there. This provides extra safety for children. With one click, you open or close any window decoration to the desired position. Somfy motors can not only be used to make roller blinds electric, but can be used for almost all types of window decoration, including curtains, venetian blinds, cellular blinds and roman blinds.
All Somfy tubular motors can be operated remotely. With a (wireless) wall switch or (multi-channel) remote control, you can change the position of your roller blinds with the push of a button. Almost all of our switches and remote controls have a special 'My' button, which allows you to immediately set your blinds to a specific preferred pre-set position.
By connecting your electric blinds to a smart home system, you can enjoy the convenience even more. Control multiple devices centrally from one app or with voice control, such as Google Assistant, Siri or Alexa.
This allows you to lower all the electric blinds in your home at the same time, or just the one in your bedroom, as you please.
Electric window decoration can also work seamlessly with other smart devices, such as your lighting. When the curtains slide silently closed, the lights automatically switch on. How is that for convenience?
Or go one step further, choose TaHoma® and you can also control other products in your home with the app on your smartphone.
Do you want to have a full smart home, or do you plan to add an increasing amount of smart devices? Our TaHoma® smart home is more suitable for you in that case.
You connect the smart devices to the hub and control them all via the app on your smartphone. From your blinds to your burglar alarm: the TaHoma® brings it all together.
Via the TaHoma® app on your smartphone, you can set scenarios and timers very easily. Do you like waking up in the morning with natural light? Set a timer for 7.30am and your blinds will silently slide up every morning. Time for a movie night? Leave your blinds down and dim the lights with a customised scenario.
Even when you are away from home, you can still control your smart home. If you forgot to pull up your blinds, the motor rolls them up for you instantly at the touch of a button, allowing your houseplants to enjoy the sunlight too. If you are away from home for a longer period of time, you can simulate your presence by cleverly using automated scenarios. Set curtains to open and close at set times and lights to go on and off, to deter burglars.
Of course you can! For example, would you like to automate already existing electric roller shutters, include your garage door in your smart home system or have your outdoor lighting work together with your alarm system? It is all possible with Somfy products. Your local Somfy dealer can provide personal advice on how to make your house a home where you can truly relax.
