Automatization of your blinds or sunshades has numerous advantages


  • Convenience – indoor blinds, exterior blinds and sunshades are controlled by pressing a button.

  • Energy Saving – Using a sun and wind sensor, your blinds and sunshades can be automatically lowered or lowered according to the light output, thus limiting the energy costs for cooling. In winter, program the automatic closing of the blinds at dusk, which will save heating costs.

  • Security – Pressing 1 button can lower all blinds and thus repel unwanted guests. Roller shutters with automation are very difficult to lift, unlike those without automation.

  • Extending the life of the product – By placing a wind sensor in your sun shade, it will automatically retract at stronger gusts.

  • A special feature that mimics the presence – Somfy at home and no one at home – Somfy’s automation will lift and lower the blinds at random intervals, and so it will appear that there is someone home.

  • Automated centralized radio control – possibility for simultaneous control of many groups – roller blinds, shades, external horizontal blinds, vertical and other inner blinds.

On the other hand you may control them individually.
