How do you use smart curtains?

With a gentle motorised tug, smart curtains will automatically draw themselves completely open or closed depending on your instruction. Smart curtains can be remote-controlled, so say goodbye to getting up from your comfortable perch and pulling curtains by hand. With just a simple click or the tap of a button, your curtains will open and close with an elegantly smooth and—most importantly—silent motion. You can also set up a wireless wall switch operated with batteries, whether it’s on the dining table, on the wall next to the door, or on your bedroom nightstand—anywhere you want.

If you have the option to include wired-in technology, you could consider wired motors. It allows you to integrate the curtains into your home automation system, which is ideal for larger and heavier blinds since it will have a continuous power supply to motorise. If, on the other hand, you are worried about the need to renovate your home in order to accommodate the motor, there’s also another option of using a battery pack, which provides a wireless power solution so you won’t have to compromise your décor.

How else can you control them?

If using a remote control feels a little clunky (and heaven forbid if you misplace it somewhere), another way to motorise your blinds and curtains is to download and use an intuitive mobile app that controls your curtains from one convenient place—the very smartphone that’s glued to your palm. If you want to go completely hands-free, you can use the voice control function by connecting the curtains to smart speakers such as Google Home or Amazon Echo Dot and just ask them to “open the curtains”!

There’s nothing better than waking up to natural sunlight when you can program your curtains to open at your desire, not to mention using voice command to open them into the perfect position for certain lighting set-ups for your selfies and photos!
