Modernise Your Home With Smart Blinds
Have you considered motorised blinds with smart technology for your home?
The 21st century has brought smart technology into the home in a big way. In our youth, what we are able to do today would have looked like a futuristic sci-fi fantasy, but now we are surrounded by smart interactive gadgets designed to make our lives easier. Perhaps it is an extension of the fact we have busier lives today, and are trying to multi-task to fit more things into it, but smart technology in the home already allows us to control the heating whilst sat in our favourite restaurant, answer the door and talk to a delivery driver whilst at work, and monitor security whilst on holiday.
Now that smart technology has evolved to include more items around the home and to sync them to make gadgets more versatile, controllable and user-friendly, we also have the ability to control them through one central device. This now includes motorised blinds, which have adopted smart technology to make a handy and convenient feature in the home even easier to control.
What are the benefits of motorised blinds?
Motorised blinds are quiet, slick and come in the normal range of colours and styles, and they bring great benefits to the home because they:
- Are great for hard-to-reach windows such as skylights
- Allow you to sync blinds and operate multiple blinds together
- Have a minimalistic and sleek, contemporary appearance with no chain
- Are pet and child friendly as they have no chain or moving parts exposed
Operating motorised blinds with a remote control device is simple and effective, but now these blinds are able to be linked to smart devices around the home, to take operation to a new dimension and make them more practical and effective.
At Find a Blind in Manchester, we stock three different motorised smart blind ranges, from Luxaflex Blinds, Silentgliss Blinds and Tracks and S-Craft Shutters. As well as the above-listed benefits, each of these systems are able to be linked to smart home devices such as Google Assistant, Apple Home and Amazon Alexa. This allows you to operate the blinds whilst relaxing on the sofa, but also to personalise your blind programming and set up daily schedules to suit your location and lifestyle.
How smart blinds can improve your lifestyle
Now you can set your blinds to open and close at certain times of day, without you having to do anything. This can be amended as the light and seasons change throughout the year, and you can also program smart blinds to tilt and cast shade across your room to make reading and watching TV easier, but also to avoid damaging sun rays fading furniture or décor colour in less frequently occupied rooms.
Of course this programming ability comes into its own as a smart security measure, because blinds can be opened and closed as normal to give the impression that you are at home, even when you are many miles away enjoying a holiday.
All your blinds can be controlled via an app and scheduled to open and close automatically, or via voice-controlled instructions to your smart home device. It is another step towards having all the important features of the home synced and controlled in one central system, and so that your motorised blinds can join with heating, lighting, security, TV and music as a feature that can be controlled remotely, to offer you more time and energy to concentrate on other things.
You can contact us at Find a Blind to discuss our range and the many benefits of motorised blinds, and how smart technology can enhance your lifestyle and your home. Give our Manchester showroom a call today and we can work with you to further modernise your home with motorised smart blinds and get it ready for whatever smart technology enables us to do next.
