5 reasons to choose electric blinds

Electric blinds are fitted with a discreet motorised control system that lets you open and close all your electric blinds at once with just the touch of a button, You can choose a battery operated remote control or a simple wall switch. 

They are also smart compatible, giving you even greater flexibility to control the light, privacy and security in your home via a mobile app or voice control.

To make your electric blinds smart you'll need a Somfy Smart Hub connected to your mobile phone, Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. We'll get into that a little later in this guide. 

Any of our electric blinds can be smart. You just need a good internet connection across your home and a Somfy Smart Hub. This is an additional accessory allowing you to link your electric blinds to a mobile app or your smart home device like an Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Our easy to follow guide will help you get set up.

It's a good idea to keep the remote control your electric blinds came with handy as you'll need it to program the Hub. You’ll also need a remote as a backup in case you experience internet connection issues!

Once programmed you'll be able to control your blinds without lifting a finger, and from anywhere in the world. You can also integrate your blinds with your other devices such as lights and heating to create your perfect smart home environment.
