Other

• The number of ladders or tapes shown in the images are for illustration purposes only. The width of blind ordered will determine how many tapes are a part of the blind.
• The blinds may be made with 2-3 extra slats on the bottom to ensure full coverage of the window.
• All our blinds are manufactured and supplied to be compliant with child safety regulations. As part of this compliance, all control cords and chains will be made to a maximum of 1 metre. If you need to discuss this, please contact us.

Motorisation

Motorised options are available here: https://www.247blinds.co.uk/motorised-wooden-blinds

The specification for this product is the same as detailed above, with the following variations for motorised operation:

Motor Types & Compatibility

• Tilt & Lift Motorisation is available only on 50 mm slats without decorative tapes (string-ladder blinds).
• Tilt-Only Motorisation is available on 50 mm taped wooden blinds.
• The tapes would otherwise interfere with the raise/lower mechanism, which is why these blinds are limited to tilt-only operation.
• The motor is powered by a clip-on battery pack powered by 8 × AA batteries (12V).

Operation & Controls

• Motorised blinds are supplied as standard with a Somfy motorised control unit on the right-hand side of the headrail.
• Where the operation is Tilt Only, the raise/lower function remains manual, operated via a cord control (also on the right-hand side).
• Where the operation is Tilt & Lift, the blind is fully motorised — there is no lift cord.
• Each blind is supplied with a Somfy remote control unit as standard (single channel).
• The system is compatible with Somfy wall switches and Somfy TaHoma / Zigbee smart-home hubs, allowing smartphone and voice-control operation.

Power Supply

• Motors are powered by a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery pack, available in single-mount or dual-mount configurations.
• Expected battery life: 1–2 years (single-mount) or 3–4 years (dual-mount) depending on blind size and use frequency.
• Battery packs are external and can be charged using a Somfy USB charger (sold separately).
