Motorisation has been one of the main driving factors behind positioning Window Treatments’ blinds and awnings as leaders in the market place.
Thanks to new technology in the motorisation of blinds we can now offer the option of remote controlled motorisation on most of our blinds and awnings.
Forget climbing over the furniture or having to stand on a chair to manually open or close your blinds. With motorisation you can sit back, relax and enjoy touch of a button convenience and control.
Window Treatments NZ Ltd are an Authorised Somy Automation Specialist.
Motorisation by Window Treatments is effected with electrically powered discreet and quiet tubular motors which are operated by wall mounted switch, remote control or interfaced with your building management system. The motor is installed directly in the headrail or tube. It is compact, quiet and powerful, and can operate any size blind. Motors for Venetian blinds can tilt the slats very accurately.
In existing applications where electrical circuits are difficult to install we now have specialised motors powered by compact long-life batteries which will operate for up to five years per battery.
Optional timer controls and sun sensors, which can be teamed with motorisation, are of great benefit for those who like to have their furnishings protected when they are at work or away on holiday. The sun sensors will raise and lower your blinds as required to protect your carpet, furniture and artworks. With a timer control you can programme your blinds to open and shut at certain times of the day to conserve energy.
Motorisation also eliminates the need for unsightly chains or cords and allows easy accessibility to high or difficult to reach windows. It is easily installed as retrofit and can be integrated with home or commercial building automation systems. Window Treatments has a full time Motorisation Manager who can consult with you or your architect and electrician at planning stage for all large domestic or commercial commissions.
Window Treatments use motors and control systems by French company Somfy who are considered world leaders in automated systems.
Somfy has over thirty-five years of experience in the motorisation field. Their tubular motors are some of the world’s quietest and with a radio receiver built inside, it is simply a matter of plugging them in to a power point. Programming can then be managed easily with the use of the radio remote control.
Stress simulation tests are performed and their products are tested under extreme conditions. All Somfy products are certified according to current technical and safety regulations. Window Treatments, in conjunction with Somfy, guarantee excellent product quality, installation and simplicity of use for all customers. Motors are guaranteed for five years.
Window Treatments can install Somfy motors or automated systems when you are remodelling or building a new home or commercial building, or we can retrofit to an existing system. We can convert most types of blinds and awnings.
Combined with home and building automation systems, sun and wind sensors, motorisation can automatically protect interiors from UV damage, control sun and glare and be a large component of temperature management.
With sun sensors and/or timer controls you can take advantage of natural solar heating or minimise the heat entering your home or building, reducing air conditioning requirements.
Somfy automation systems are designed to improve your comfort, security and energy efficiency – making life easier.
