Are you looking for a stylish way to protect your interior from the sun and keep your home cool? Roman blinds have been a popular form of interior sun protection for years for anyone who wants to stylishly keep the sun out of the house.
By choosing electric roman blinds you make life easy for yourself. Especially if you have multiple roman blinds, it can be a time-consuming task to open and close the roman blinds. A roman blind with Somfy motor opens and closes with the push of a button. Or, even faster: you set the control up once and from now on you open and close your all your electric roman blinds together.
A folding blind with Somfy motor can be operated with the Somfy app, included in a Smart Home scenario or controlled by a sun sensor. You always come home in a house with a pleasant temperature.
The motor opens and closes your roman blinds smoothly and regularly. This careful operation ensures that your roman blinds last a long time.
An electric roman blind has no operating cords. This makes an electric roman blind safer for children: they cannot get caught in the cord and cannot use the roman blind as a toy.
With electric blinds that you can control remotely, it seems that someone is always at home. With presence simulation you scare off burglars, even when you are not at home.
Electric blinds with a Somfy motor can be operated in many different ways.
If you opt for a wireless wall switch for your electric roman blinds, you can simply place it on the spot of your choice. The wall switches are available in different colors and therefore always match your interior. With the special "my-button" you can quickly call up your favorite position of your roman blind.
Control your roman blinds from the couch. Opt for a single-channel remote control if you only have roman blinds for one window, or opt for a multi-channel remote if you want to open and close multiple electric roman blinds independently.
With the Somfy app you can easily open and close your roman blinds from your smartphone. It doesn't matter where you are: you can control your roman blinds anywhere in the app.
Expand to a Somfy Smart Home? Then include your roman blinds in scenarios. For example, you can set scenarios for morning and evening, allowing your roman blinds, curtains, and lighting to follow pre-programmed settings.
With a sun sensor in your Smart Home you can optimally protect your house from the sun. For example, control your roman blinds or your blinds using a sun sensor. When the sun comes out, your house adapts to it without you having to do anything yourself.
If your electric roman blinds are equipped with a Somfy motor, you can include them in your Somfy Smart Home. With the TaHoma® you can compose the Smart Home that suits you. The TaHoma® is available separately, but also as part of various Smart Home packages.
With a Smart Home you can go in all directions. For example, you can focus on convenience, but also on security, climate control or atmosphere. A combination is of course also possible.
Including your roman blinds in your Smart Home system gives you the opportunity to:
It doesn't matter whether you want an extensive Smart Home, automate only a few products or do not yet know what your house will look like in five years' time: a Somfy Smart Home is expandable when you want it. For example, do you now have roman blinds or electric blinds and Philips Hue lamps in your living room and decide in a year that you would like blinds for the bedroom window and a surveillance camera in the hall? You can easily expand your Smart Home by connecting more products to the TaHoma®. Somfy also works together with other handy home automation systems, such as Philips Hue, Netatmo and Zigbee.
Electric roman blinds use heavy high quality fabrics and offer a touch of luxury to any décor. Roman blinds start from around £180.
Electric Roman blinds need regular, light cleaning to maintain their aesthetic and feel. As they’re made from soft materials, like cotton and linen, marks and stains can be trickier to deal with.
Fear not though as dust and dirt can be tackled easily! Just use the soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner but just make sure it’s on a low setting. Open the blind completely and brush from top to bottom.
Once you overcome the measurement minefield, now you must face the final task of fitting your electric roman blinds. Fortunately, installing them is a quick and simple process.
