Automatic window coverings is becoming increasingly popular which means it should not be missing from your smart home. It is probably not the first product you think of when you think of smart devices, but it is one that provides a lot of comfort, convenience, privacy and security in your home. Discover the benefits of automatic window blinds!

1. Convenience

With automatic window blinds, manual operation is (partly) a thing of the past. You can open or close your window coverings via your smartphone. This means you no longer have to get off the couch to lower your roller blind, so the sun doesn’t shine on the TV. It is even possible to set timers. This way, your window blinds go up at 07:00 in the morning and down at 20:00 in the evening. You no longer have to do anything for this yourself! It is also possible to control your electric roller blinds via voice commands. Operation via cord is possible, though, ideal for the cleaner or babysitter.

2. Privacy and security

Besides the convenience of automatic window blinds, its privacy is also a big advantage. It is possible to operate your window blinds remotely. This means you can have your window decoration opened and closed from your holiday address. This provides security, as burglars will have the idea that someone is at home. This allows you to go on holiday feeling safe. In addition, privacy is an advantage of Smartblinds. For instance, you can set smart scenes at certain times so that your window blinds only go up when you are away from home and go down just before you return. This way, you won’t be bothered by passers-by constantly looking in. 

3. Accessible for everyone

Accessibility is the third advantage of automatic window decoration. Electric operation makes it accessible to everyone. Do you have mobility problems that make it more difficult to raise or lower your window blinds? With smart roller blinds, this goes a lot easier. With a few clicks on your smart device, your window decoration goes up or down. Don’t have a smart device? Then you can also order a remote control with it. This makes automatic window blinds accessible to everyone. 

4. Cooperation with smart devices

Since automatic window decoration is a smart product, it is possible to make it work with other smart devices in your home. For example, do you have smart lights in your home? Then it is possible to set an evening scene where your Smartblinds go down at 21:00 and your lights go off. So you can create different scenes and link multiple smart devices to them!

5. Save energy

With automatic window decoration, it is possible to save energy. Choose pleated blinds, for instance, because they keep the heat in for longer in winter, reducing the need to turn on your heating! In summer, the cold stays in longer and the air conditioning doesn’t have to be on as much. This saves both energy and money on your energy bill!
