We hope our Help & Advice section will give you all the information you need to help you buy your motorised blinds.
Remote controlled blinds are much more than an affordable luxury; they can really enhance your life.
Our guide shows you how to measure up accurately to ensure your blinds fit perfectly into place.
Our motorised blinds are as easy to install as normal roller blinds, so you can fit them yourself.
Motorisation means enjoying a more comfortable and convenient lifestyle at home. With a Powered Blind solution, you can control your room’s natural light level with just the touch of a button. Our easy to install designs have a number of different power options, including battery, mains plug in and even solar.
Our roller blinds offer a smooth operation and a choice of power options to suit your needs.
Embedded Li-ion Battery (Simplicity, Fully Customisable & Serene Roller Blinds)
With this power option our roller blinds are fitted with a Somfy motor that has an integral rechargeable li-ion battery. As the motor is concealed within the roller blind tube, this offers a very neat and tidy solution as there are no trailing wires or requirement to fit an external battery pack. There is a charging port on the motor head, which the charger connects to when battery charging is required.
External Li-ion Battery Pack (Serene Roller Blinds Only)
With this power option our roller blinds are fitted with a Somfy motor that can be connected to the external li-ion rechargeable battery pack. The battery pack is typically mounted behind the blind at the side where the motor head is positioned. The battery pack supply cable simply connects to the motor supply cable to power it. There is a charging port at one end of the battery pack, which the charger connects to when battery charging is required.
Mains Adapter (Serene Roller Blinds Only)
With this power option our roller blinds are fitted with a Somfy motor that can be connected to the mains adapter. The mains adapter plugs into any standard socket outlet, providing a dedicated power supply. This option ideally requires a socket outlet to be located close to your motorised blind, but extension cables are available if the supply cable length requires extending. Please note, the mains adapter will only power a single motorised blind.
Embedded Battery – Available on Roller Blinds Only
Comprises of a Somfy motor with an integral rechargeable li-ion battery. The motor is concealed within the tube that makes up the roller blind assembly, offering simplified installation and a neat finish. The motor head has a charging port, which the charger connects to when battery charging is required.
