Luxaflex Done Properly in CheritonMotorised & Smart Home

Cheriton is one of the patches we cover most often, and luxaflex here come with their own quirks. The big one: small bay windows on terraced frontages.

Luxaflex — motorised & smart home: what we look for

Motorised blinds are no longer a premium bolt-on — they're the sensible default for tall windows, hard-to-reach conservatory roofs, bi-fold stacks, and any home already running smart lighting or heating. What matters is choosing the right power source, hub and fabric for the room rather than the flashiest app.

  • Rechargeable battery motors (12–18 month cycle) suit retrofit installs — no chasing walls or lifting flooring.
  • Hard-wired 24V motors are the right call at new-build stage or during a full refurb, and remove battery-charging altogether.
  • Hunter Douglas PowerView, Somfy TaHoma and Luxaflex hubs all integrate with Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomeKit — we set up the room scenes on the day of fitting.
  • Solar-sensor and schedule automation genuinely reduces conservatory heat gain and bedroom morning wake-ups — the room use case decides the trigger, not the other way round.

On a Cheriton survey, this is what we look at

  • Catalogue sizing forced into a non-square reveal — gaps you can see daylight through.
  • Wrong fixing into render or lath-and-plaster — brackets pull within months.
  • Cord-and-chain installs without break-away tensioners — fails current child-safety regs.
  • Recess-fit on listed windows where face-fix was the right call — heritage issue waiting to happen.
