Why Motorised Roller Blinds are Ideal for Windows and Doors

When it comes to covering large areas such as patio or bifold doors, finding a solution that is both stylish and functional can be tricky. Motorised roller blinds offer a sleek, modern solution, combining convenience, safety, and aesthetics. Here’s why upgrading to motorised blinds for your patio or bifold doors can enhance your home:

Effortless Control with a Simple Tap

Imagine being able to open or close your blinds with just a tap on your smartphone or the push of a button. Motorised roller blinds make this possible with their seamless remote operation. This is especially useful for large doors, where manually operating traditional blinds can be awkward and time-consuming.

Ideal for Large Areas

Patio doors and bifold doors often stretch across large expanses of wall space, which makes them a prime area for motorised blinds. Manual blinds can become cumbersome when you need to adjust multiple panels daily. Motorised blinds allow you to control them with precision, ensuring smooth, synchronized movement across the whole length of your doors.

Enhanced Privacy and Light Control

With motorised roller blinds, you can easily adjust the light level in your home to suit your needs, offering the perfect balance between privacy and sunlight. Whether you’re looking for soft filtered light during the day or full privacy in the evenings, motorised blinds make it simple to get exactly what you need—especially handy for bifold and patio doors that lead to busy outdoor spaces.

Pet and Child Safe

One of the key benefits of motorised roller blinds is that they are completely cord-free, eliminating the risk of accidents for children or pets. This feature is especially important around large glass doors that often serve as high-traffic areas in the home.

Why Choose Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Motors? 

Traditional motorised blinds often need to be hardwired into your home’s electrical system, which can be costly and time-consuming. Fortunately, advancements in lithium-ion rechargeable motor technology make installing motorised blinds far more convenient. Here are some key advantages of choosing Li-ion rechargeable motors like the EVE Motion or Somfy motors:

No Need for Hardwiring

Perhaps the most attractive benefit of lithium-ion motors is that they don’t need to be hardwired. This means that you can install your motorised blinds without having to undergo any invasive electrical work. For homeowners, this translates into quicker installations, reduced costs, and the ability to move your blinds if you decide to redesign your space.

Eco-Friendly and Cost-Effective

Lithium-ion rechargeable motors are energy efficient. They provide long-lasting power and can typically last months on a single charge, reducing the need for frequent recharging. Plus, by eliminating the need for hardwiring, they contribute to a greener, more sustainable setup. 

Easy to Recharge

Recharging the motor is simple and infrequent. Most lithium-ion motorised blinds only need to be recharged every six months, depending on usage. This means you get all the convenience of motorisation without the hassle of constantly managing battery levels.

Compatibility with Smart Home Systems

With the addition of a compatible Home Hub, the Li-ion Motors are easily operated via an app on a smart phone or smart speaker, making them even easier to operate.
