The hour going forward used to mean the manual resetting of every clock, watch and timer in the house. On some household items, this process was so complicated that it was easier just to remember that it was out by an hour for the six months until it was right again. Recently, the hour changes in many devices has been automated. Your smartphone and smartwatch and Skybox will update themselves without you having to touch a button. This is just one example of how automation makes life easier. The automation of opening and closing your blinds is another. Here’s a selection of the latest technology.
Cost Effective Solutions from Louvolite Motors
The innovative range of motorised window blinds in Louvolite’s One Touch range can be wired into the mains electricity supply or battery operated. This cost-effective solution to blind automation can be operated by their ergonomic “Magic Wand†controllers or up to five blinds can be controlled separately or simultaneously with their rechargeable remote controls.
Set the Timer with Somfy
Electrically operated Somfy motors can be incorporated into our standard-sized blinds and our made-to-measure blinds.
