Since you are reading this blog, it means you have made up your mind on buying automatic window blinds. It’s a good decision. Automatic window blinds are not only the latest in technology, but also are highly beneficial. But in this blog, we’ll not be talking about its advantages. Rather, we would be discussing what parameters should you choose automatic window blinds on.
As you know that in automatic window blinds, the manual cords are replaced with a motor and a control system. This means that any type of blinds such as roller window blind, Venetian blind, roman window blinds or cellular shades can be motorised and converted into automatic blinds. Hence, it’s important that you make the right choice while selecting the motor and the control system. Here’s our quick guide to follow:
Brand Reputation
Since automatic window blinds are about cutting edge technology, you must choose the market leader. Remember, premiums always come at a cost, but it is a cost that is worth the money.
Options Of Control Systems
Ensure that the automatic window blinds can be controlled by a wall-mounted unit as well as by remote control. While the wall-mounted control unit is a good option if you are standing near the window, the remote is important when you are far from the window, for ex. When you are watching television.
Mobile App
Let’s admit – we all have got used to using dozens of mobile apps. The beauty of the mobile app is that you can control the automatic window blinds from anywhere across the world.
Compatibility with Voice Assistants
Did you know that Amazon Alexa is the best selling device on Amazon.in? And, Google Home Mini is also one of the best selling devices on Flipkart. When people have these devices, it’s important that you have an automatic window blind system that is compatible with voice assistants.
Pre-settings & programmability
Programming your favorite window setting is the biggest comfort in automatic window blinds. Imagine your blinds open at precisely the same time every morning! And, also close at a preset time every evening! Wouldn’t that be wonderful? If you want to enjoy this comfort, ensure that the automatic window blinds come with this feature. The automatic window blinds offered by the world’s most premium window blinds company also allows your window blinds to open and close with sunrise & sunset based on your location. Isn’t that amazing?
Power Failure
Have you ever wondered how automatic window blinds operate if there was a power failure? Ensure that your automatic window blinds can also be operated manually in case of a power failure.
Power of the Motor
Ensure that the motor is power rated to the sufficient levels required to smoothly operate the weight of your window blinds.
Motor Noise
The mantra here is ‘Quiet is wonderful’. Take a demo and experience the motor noise for yourself.
Power Source
How is your motor powered? If it is battery powered, it would mean periodic maintenance and also the ever-looming threat of the battery unit getting spoilt.
Customer Support
Last, but not the least, customer support plays a very crucial role. Ensure that the company has a presence in your city and can provide good customer support when required.
