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.

- Whether the property is in a conservation area around the Martello towers.
- Parking access for the fitter — important on tighter streets in Dymchurch.
- Whether existing blinds or fittings need to come down at fit.
- Floor protection in carpeted rooms — we bring our own dust sheets.
