Somfy Controls

Controlling your blinds

Somfy® offers a wide range of controls that work with all Somfy® powered electric blinds. Whether you want a remote control, wall switch or you’re looking for an automated solution, such as a timer or sensor, we’ve got the perfect solution for you.

With radio technology, there is no electric wiring between the motor and the control. Commands are transmitted via radio waves, even through concrete walls.

Putting you in control

Our range of remote controls boast clever features, such as the ‘my’ button, which allows you to instantly recall your preferred blind or curtain position. They are so easy to use and allow you to control up to 16 different channels simultaneously. Alternatively, our stylish Smoove wall switches bring lighting control straight to your fingertips.
