Smart roller shutters

The points to check before selecting a motorised system: 
1. What type of shutter drive system should you select? On the inside or outside? 
2. What type of installation should you select? Mounted on the outside wall, embedded in the wall or built into the lintel? 
3. Where is the power supply located? To the left or right (seen from inside)? 
4. For installing a solar-powered solution, consult a professional!
 

You will save time and money and make your house safer. Time, because you will no longer need to raise and lower all your roller shutters by hand one by one. Money, because you will make considerable energy savings through the automated control of openings according to weather conditions. You also gain on the security front. Even when going out for a short time, you will no longer hesitate to close your shutters, because you can do it with a single "click" on your remote control or from your smartphone. What's more, with automation, you can activate your roller shutters to simulate your presence

Somfy motorised systems are compatible with most swing shutters, whether solid or louvred. For each shutter (new or existent) and material (wood, aluminium or PVC), Somfy will find a custom solution that’s right for you!

The points to check before selecting a motorised system:

2. Position of the shutter hinges. 
3. The space available to install the motor. 
4. Where would you like the motor installed? Under the lintel, in the middle, or at the bottom? 
5. What colour would you like for the motor housing? Several colours are available. 
6. Is there a power supply near the windows in question?
 

Somfy recommends you install roller blinds and curtains in your veranda. Outside, external Venetian blinds, roller shutters and roof blinds will provide you with a comfortable and elegant veranda. Our recommended equipment: 
- Roller shutters. They insulate picture windows and hinder break-in attempts. For maximum comfort, Somfy recommends you equip your shutters with the quiet S&SO RS100 motorised system.
- External Venetian blinds. With their adjustable slats, external Venetian blinds can change angle depending on the sun’s intensity and regulate the natural light coming in. We recommend you select the J4 io Protect motorised system for these sun stoppers.
- Interior blinds. Interior blinds protect you from sunlight and maintain your privacy. For this type of equipment, we recommend you use the Sonesse Ultra motorised system. 
- Roof screens. The motorised system allows you to control your hard-to-reach roof screen panels. With Somfy solutions, protect yourself from the sun with the greatest of ease!
 

Not at all. Somfy home automation solutions can be installed just as easily in new buildings as during renovation operations.

Somfy designs and manufactures only motors, controls and automatic systems to power the openings in the home. These motors and home automation devices are then supplied to industrial firms that assemble them with the relevant equipment (roller shutters, blinds, gates, garage doors, etc.).
