The motorised roller blinds we have available are comprehensive and can be summed up to fit into the following categories:
But we will talk about these in more detail later!
As you can see, we host an extensive range of blind fabrics and fabric options. Whatever you have in mind for your motorised roller blinds, we can guarantee that we have the fabric range for you.
Our motorised roller blinds are available with various smart hubs that can integrate with Alexa and Google Home which can make your home a smart home and streamline things as much as possible. Custom electric roller blinds with style may not appear to be as technologically advanced as wi-fi connected products, but you’d be surprised at how much they can make a difference to your everyday life.
They are handy for when you wake up and want to open the blinds or curtains but don’t want to get out of bed just yet, or the same for the evening when you have forgotten to shut the blinds before you drift off. This can provide extra safety for times when you would otherwise leave the living room windows exposed, for example, inviting intruders or thieves to get a good look at the space.
Electric roller blinds are really useful for people with reduced mobility, and people who are looking for increased convenience in their home appliances. The blackout fabrics in particular are ideal for children’s bedrooms and can help new parents out by shutting out the light without them having to move from wherever they are and disturb the baby.
1. Easy to fit and install
Although these blinds are highly technologically advanced, they are easy to install and require no assistance from an electrician. See for yourself when you purchase one of our highly popular motorised roller blinds. They are low cost, easy to set up and hassle-free throughout their entire lifespan. Even the larger sizes are long lasting, made from durable fabrics and surprisingly easy to fit and install.
We have created an extremely useful comprehensive blind installation guide so you can make sure your perfect blinds are fitted and installed in little to no time and without any of the usual hassle.
2. Made with quality
When it comes to our roller blinds, we can assure you that they are made from the highest quality materials. We know how important it is to be able to trust the quality of blinds you are purchasing, which is why we pride ourselves on only working with the best manufacturers in the industry.
All of our suppliers are full members of the BBSA (British Blind and Shutter Association), which guarantees the quality of the products we supply and will give you the added peace of mind that whatever motorised roller blind you choose, it will certainly meet and hopefully exceed your expectations.
3. No electrician needed
As mentioned above, you can choose from our vast range of child-safe blinds and blind fabric colours and be assured of ease of installation, no matter how complicated the product itself is.
With our battery-powered motorised blinds, you’ll benefit from minimised installation time because you don’t need to book an electrician to install the blinds for you. Not only does this save you time, but it also saves you quite a bit of money too.
These blinds are more energy efficient in that they only require one charge a couple of times a year and will then run without consuming any electricity.
4. Free samples of fabric
No one said that choosing the ideal soft furnishing solution for your home is easy. We recognise this and offer free samples to help you choose the perfect type of blind for you. Once you’ve found a blind that you like, simply speak to one of our team members or order your free sample to help you make your decision.
Our sampling service is completely free, meaning you can order as many different ones as you like without having to worry about being charged. Each sample is an adequate size, allowing you to really assess whether that fabric choice is right for you or not.
5. Control with voice automation!
The whole reason someone purchases a motorised blind as a home automation system is to make life easier for them and to allow them to be less reliant on wall switches. Not only is the installation process as easy as can be, but actually operating the blinds is just as simple.
When your order arrives, you’ll get a remote control, which you can use from anywhere within the property to operate the blinds. As well as this, you have the added ability to be able to control your motorised blinds with voice automation. We all love shouting at our Google Homes, and now you have the opportunity to be in charge of your blinds too. Whatever next!
6. Extra convenience
Although opening and closing your blinds isn’t necessarily the most difficult of tasks, it can take up a fair amount of time, especially if you’re responsible for opening all of the blinds in the house, not to mention the harder-to-reach ones that require some clever daily acrobatics on your part.
No doubt, it is much quicker and, in certain cases, even safer to move the blinds via remote control. These motorised roller blinds can also be adjusted manually in case you lose your controller, or on the off chance that you just fancy doing it yourself one morning or evening.
7. Comfort and energy savings
As we’ve all experienced in the recent UK heatwaves, keeping blinds lowered in the summer can go a long way towards preventing a room from overheating. Similarly, keeping them raised during the winter months captures and retains natural sun from the heat – both of which are important in terms of comfort and for reducing the costs of our energy bills, another factor we are all too aware of at the moment.
There’s nothing worse than not being comfortable in your own home, so this is especially important to consider if you live somewhere that captures a lot of sunlight.
8. UV protection
Similarly to the above point, keeping blinds lowered when the sun is at its highest and strongest is a very effective way to keep the sun and its rays at bay. Not only can UV rays from the sun be damaging for us as humans, but they also can have quite negative effects on furniture. Pieces of artwork and furniture are especially at risk of becoming faded or bleached from the sun’s UV rays.
With motorised roller blinds from Lifestyle Blinds, you can set them to a timer, which will lower them at certain times and then raise them again later.
9. Aesthetically pleasing
Our vast array of different fabrics and designs for our motorised roller blinds are perfect for adding an extra pop of colour to any room. When you have various motorised roller blinds in the same room, you can arrange for them to be perfectly in line, giving a particularly aesthetic feel to the room. Adding to this, there are no hanging cords with the motorised blinds, which definitely increases the aesthetic of the room.
We’re confident that you’ll be able to find the perfect shade and design for your soft furnishing needs, no matter which room you’re focusing on.
10. Safety for children
One of the most overlooked but dangerous parts of having traditional blinds or shutters installed is the risk to children. Children are curious, and if not for a 24/7 vigilant eye, which is impossible, it can be a worry that they’ll play around with traditional cords and injure themselves or cause accidental damage.
Instead of having to try and locate shorter cords or invent ways to hide them, you can limit all safety risks by having motorised roller blinds installed instead.
Being able to control the blinds with the touch of a button will successfully eliminate all risk factors and give you the peace of mind that your children will remain safe in whichever room they are in.
In short, electric roller blinds can be installed in any type of room, window or door. However, there are some blinds that are more suited to certain types of rooms than others. For example, the plain sheer and voile motorised roller blinds are particularly suited to bathrooms and private rooms like offices. These types of blinds allow you to see the outside clearly but don’t offer a view inside like others might.
We also have specific kitchen-inspired patterns, which are of course suited best to kitchens but can be used in a bedroom or living room instead, for example. It’s all down to your personal preferences.
Bifold doors are increasing in popularity and are an excellent place for motorised roller blinds to be installed. The cordless roller blinds that we specialise in are ideal for bifold doors, in particular, because they sit on the bifold door itself and provide shade from the sun whilst also allowing the outside in and simultaneously shielding you from any prying eyes. They can be controlled by remote control without having to even get out of your seat – talk about convenience!
Are motorised roller blinds reliable?
Despite how technologically advanced and easy to install our motorised roller blinds are, they are so reliable that they come with a 3-year guarantee. Because motorised blinds are both pet and child-friendly and do not require any touching of the slats, these types of blinds are highly reliable and are expected to last between five and ten years, depending on use.
Motorised roller blinds are expected to outlast manual blinds in comparison. As well as being wholly reliable, motorised roller blinds are also more cost-effective. This is because they don’t need maintenance or replacing as often thanks to the efficiency of the mechanism and, as a result, less wear and tear from human hands.
How do motorised blinds work?
Motorised blinds are designed to be easy to operate and to make your life more convenient. Because of this, you can expect our motorised blinds to be very simple to work. The remote control you receive upon purchase is connected with a battery in the blinds, which allows you to open or close the blinds from wherever you are in the house.
Please note that, depending on the model, you may still be able to manually operate the blinds if you lose the remote control, or just wish to do so at any given time. Alternatively, get in touch with a member of the team for more information on sourcing a replacement remote.
Do I need an electrician to install my blinds?
You can choose from our huge range of blinds and be assured that no matter how complicated the product itself is, they are easy to fit and install and require no electrician expertise. You will benefit from minimised installation time because you don’t need to book an electrician to install the blinds for you. Not only does this save you time, but it also saves you quite a bit of money too.
Can I buy waterproof motorised blackout blinds?
Currently, we offer thermal blackout motorised roller blinds and plain blackout motorised roller blinds. We also have several waterproof options on our website, but no motorised roller blinds that are both waterproof and blackout.
We would recommend that you check out our thermal blackout motorised roller blinds that are fully made to measure and are home automation compatible. The same as our other motorised roller blinds, these come with a remote control and are powered by an integrated battery.
Because of the integrated battery, it is very challenging to design a safe motorised roller blind that is also 100% waterproof.
However, we have many vertical blinds made of rigid PVC, which are designed to be extremely durable, waterproof and allow you to control levels of light and privacy. Get in touch if you’d like to find out more or request free fabric samples.
As a company, Lifestyle Blinds works with a wide range of the best manufacturers in order to provide our customers with the best products possible - everything we do, we do in the hopes of delighting our customers.
Not only do we pride ourselves on our excellent customer service, but our main unique selling point is that we provide comprehensive choices of affordable and made-to-measure blinds. Many companies also have a range of blind types, but we believe we truly offer the best prices.
