How to choose the best motorised blinds for your home or office

Choosing the Correct Motorised Blinds for Your Office or Home

Whether you’re buying motorised blinds for your home or office, you’ll probably look at the same qualities in the blinds you decide to frame your room’s windows. As home and office automation continues to become more popular among South Africans from all walks of life, the motorised blinds option has become more viable. While it’s always great to have a lot of options, it can make it more difficult to sidestep the wrong decisions in favour of making the best choice for your needs.

With so many options available, it can be tough deciding on which type of motorised blinds to decide on. This difficulty is compounded by the prospect of choosing made to measure blinds too, as this just massively increases the options available to you. No longer do you need to settle on a generic, one size fits all approach.

Instead, you now have the prospect of personalising blinds to fit your exact needs, which just further adds to the options. So how do you choose the best motorised blinds for your space? Let’s take a look at some helpful tips to guide you along the way.

How Durable Are the Motorised Blinds’ Motor?

Deciding to invest in motorised blinds isn’t a decision that most people reach lightly. Depending on a number of factors, including the size of the windows you need to treat, the number of windows required, and even the cost of the blinds itself, it could be a hefty investment, which is why you need to make sure you get the best value for your money.

With that said, the old adage of, “you get what you pay for,” remains especially relevant in the world of motorised blinds and window treatments. When trying to decide which type of blinds will best address your needs, choose a product that comes with a comprehensive guarantee and warranty.

It’s also an indication that your supplier has confidence in their products. After all, why should you display confidence in their products, if they don’t? If they aren’t willing to back up their products, it might indicate a lack of confidence in the product, and is that really something you want to install in your office or home?

How Noisy is the Motor?

Honestly, who wants a noisy motor in their home or office? We are polluted with sound pollution all day long. After a long day of working in a noisy office, you want to retreat to calm and quiet in your home. When in your office, eliminating as much noise around you as possible is also essential, so this is an important point to take into account whether you’re buying motorised blinds for your home or commercial space.

Therefore, it pays to make sure you’ve had the chance to see the motor in action before you put pen to paper. This helps you to determine whether the sound of the motor is at a level you’re happy with. Noise levels are also particularly important when installing the blinds in a bedroom.

Also take into account how the motor is powered. Do you want an electrically-powered, or battery-powered motor? How are the blinds controlled, through remote control or by a power switch? The answers to these questions will guide you along the way to making an informed decision as to the type of made to measure blinds you choose.
