Somfy Home Motion coordinates motors, controls and automatic systems to power the openings in the home. The motors operate the roller shutters, blinds, gates or garage doors for which they were designed. The controls, linked to the motors by radio, control the motors to operate these items of equipment. The automatic devices are used to programme movements according to the time of day or to react to weather conditions.

 In a wired system, the control is connected to the motor by electric wires which carry your commands to the motor. This is the traditional home automation solution. In this case, the control unit is fixed near the motor (beside the window, for instance, for a motorised blind).
In the radio system, the commands are transmitted by radio waves. There is no electric wiring between the motor and the control. The control is mobile, and you can control your blind within a radius of up to 20 metres, even through a wall. Installation is quicker too, and saves your walls from being damaged. This is the neat, simple home automation solution.
Note: with Somfy, a wired system can always be upgraded to a radio installation.

Motorising your curtains has great benefits.

Motorisation means your curtains are controlled smoothly and evenly every time, and that means they stay looking good for longer.

You can open and close your curtains any time you choose, just by pressing on a button on your conveniently positioned wall switch or remote control handset. 

You can partially open your curtains in the morning to let in a little light, without getting out of bed.  Partially close them to prevent glare on your TV or computer screen, without getting up from your seat,  or close them at any time of day to have some privacy.  It's so easy and you're in complete control.

When your curtains are controlled by a timer, they can be closed when it gets dark in winter, before you even get home from work, keeping in warmth and helping to save energy in your home.

Curtains controlled by a timer make it look as though there is someone at home, even when you are away working or on holiday, giving you a little security and peace of mind.

 

It’s the abbreviation for Radio Technology Somfy®. This is a wireless home automation control system by radio waves, using a remote control, or sometimes a switch.

No. You can equip your gate now and your blinds, for example, later on. Everything can be done very easily, as your needs change: you can upgrade your installation, or add an application or a new function. It's a very adaptable home automation solution.
