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.
Things Hawkinge customers ask about most
- Survey, manufacture, fitting and disposal of existing dressings.
- All brackets, fixings and tensioners — nothing added on at fit.
- Sample visit and any colour-match work on painted ranges.
- 5-year install warranty and the product warranty in writing.
Our promise on every Hawkinge job
- The same fitter from first measure to final adjustment.
- A written, itemised quote in your inbox the same day.
- Lead times confirmed in writing before we take a deposit.
- If anything's not right at handover, we re-make at our cost.

Some luxaflex jobs we've done locally
Kitchen luxaflex for a CT18 family home
Grease and steam ruled out fabric in this run — we went with 50mm faux-wood Venetians and a wipe-clean finish that's still looking new four years on.
luxaflex for a south-facing Hawkinge lounge
Glare from afternoon sun was the brief — we specced a tighter louvre and a slightly warmer paint shade than the standard white.
Café-style luxaflex for a Hawkinge front room
Privacy at street level without losing the daylight up high — half-height café shutters in a satin white finish, fitted within 12mm of the glass.
