ELECTRIC VENETIAN BLINDS
Our electric venetian blinds are operated with radio frequency remote controls. They're available to 3.8 metres wide, with a choice of mains voltage, low voltage or battery operated (tilt-only) motors.
motorisation
All our electric venetian blinds are powered and controlled by Somfy - the world leader in the manufacture of window blind automation. Depending on the size and slat width, they're available with 240v, low voltage (24v) or battery operated (tilt-only) motors.
wired venetian blind motors - 25mm slat
Choose a low voltage system you can raise, lower turn and tilt your blind at the touch of a button.
A low voltage motor is kept out of sight - we build it into the headrail - and a slender wire connects the motor to a transformer ( located out of view).
wired (240v) venetian blind motors - 50mm slat
Again the motor is built into the head-rail but the motor is generally 240v. There's no transformer but you'll need a convenient power supply close by.
wire-free venetian blind motors
If you don't plan to regularly lift your blind - just control light and privacy by tilting and turning your slats - you can take advantage of our wirefree battery powered system.
This has a slender lithium battery wand - located alongside the motor - within the headrail. The battery is powerful enough to tilt the slats but is not suited to raising or lowering your entire blind.
Often Venetian blinds are left lowered semi-permanently, only being raised occaisionally for window cleaning.
A wire-free motor gives an easy, hassle free installation - that does away with the need to channel or disguise external wires.
remote controls
Our electric venetian blinds are generally powered by Somfy motors.
Movement is enabled by a handset that controls the blind using RTS technology. Controls can be handheld or wall-mounted depending on personal preference.
electric Venetian blinds - sizes & slat widths
All our electric venetian blinds are manufactured using 21 micron aluminium slats - the highest gauge slat available. This makes them far more robust and hardwearing than many venetian blinds in the marketplace.
21 micron slats are less susceptible to being bent by casual contact and hold their appearance over time.
electric Venetian blinds - 50mm wide slat - 240v or battery motor
50mm electric venetian blinds are available up to 3.8 metres wide & 3.6 metres drop.
electric Venetian blinds - 25mm wide slat - 24v or battery motor
25mm electric venetian blinds are available up to 3 metres wide & 3.6 metres drop.
