Help with measuring your electric cellular blind

Before recording your measurements, please follow these simple steps to ensure your powered blind is an exact fit:

1. Use a metal tape measure for accurate measurements.
2. Make sure you have a pen and paper ready to record your measurements in centimeters (see below to
download our measurement templates).
3. Take into account any obstructions such as window handles or tiles, etc.

Inside Recess Fit

Take three measurements across the width and height of the recess and use the shortest measurements recorded. Don't make any allowances for the headrail - we will fabricate your powered roman blind based on your measurements and allow a 5mm clearance gap at either side to ensure the blind operates smoothly.

Select Motor position *

Select the motor position

As the blind motor requires power to operate, the motor position will determine where you must mount the battery or solar pack. The motor is positioned at either the left or right side of the blind, with the battery/solar or mains adapter typically located on the same side and connected in place.

Help with choosing the motor position for your electric cellular blind

Your cellular blind is powered using a battery or solar pack and the position of the motor will determine which side of the blind you must mount the battery / solar panel.

Battery pack Solar pack
The battery pack is essentially an elongated tube containing 8 AA lithium batteries that simply plugs into the head of the motor. The battery pack has a short length of cable to make this connection and therefore must be situated within reasonable proximity of the motor head.
 
Most battery packs are mounted directly below & behind the roller blind within the recess or above & behind the roller blind if outside the recess mounted and hidden from view. The battery pack can also be mounted vertically if preferred.		 The solar pack comprises of a slimline solar panel and a rechargeable battery that simply plugs into the head of the motor. The solar pack is supplied with a 'Y' cable to make the connection between the solar panel and battery pack and then to the motor. This cable is approximately 30cm in length and therefore must be situated within reasonable proximity of the motor head.
 
The solar panel is typically mounted directly below & behind the roller blind directly onto the window pane, with the battery pack within the recess or above & behind the roller blind if outside the recess mounted and hidden from view.
Battery pack Solar pack

Mains Plug-In Power Pack

The plug-in power pack provides a permanent power feed to the motor with the power pack taking power from a standard 230V socket outlet and the supply cable connected to the blind motor. The supply cable of the power pack is 3M long, so a socket outlet within close proximity of the motorised blind will be required.

Select Power supply *

Select your power supply

Single battery pack for a Somfy WireFree powered blind. The battery pack simply connects to the blind motor to provide the power supply.

Rechargeable battery pack for a Somfy WireFree powered blind. The rechargeable battery pack simply connects to the motor to provide the power supply. Once the battery power expires, simply disconnect from the motor, charge back up and reconnect for continued operation.

NOTE: Battery charger supplied separately.

The plug-in power pack provides a permanent power feed to the motor with the power pack taking power from a standard 230V socket outlet and the supply cable connected to the Wirefree motor.

You may not want to select a power supply as an option during the order stage as you may already own a Somfy power supply that is compatible with the Somfy powered blind system.

Warning: only select this option if you already have a Somfy Power Supply
Your electric blind will not operate if you do not have a power supply connected to the motor.
