Why choose smart blinds
Back in 2001, a representative for Apple said “A Smart home without smart blinds is not truly smart” and here at DotcomBlinds, we thoroughly agree with that statement. If you’re turning your home into a smart home, or building a smart home from the ground up, the Smart Blinds will be an essential piece of the puzzle for your smart home! Our made to measure Smart Blinds provide an extraordinary level of utility for you and your smart home, with features designed to provide: Comfort, Security, Energy Efficiency and Convenience.
Comfort:
Off the bat, our ‘Motion’ Smart Blinds & ‘eve Motion’ Smart Blinds have a range of features designed around providing a level of comfort to the user, these Smart Blinds can be programmed or controlled to ensure that you have the optimal level of shade in your home all day long, keeping the Sun out of your eyes .
Security:
The next tenet of Smart Blind utility is Security, as our Smart Blinds can be controlled remotely, or programmed to move at certain times, they act as a great security solution. A good use case for this would be a holiday, whilst you’re away on an exotic beach, your blinds will still open and close as if you were still home, which should be enough to deter any would be thieves!
Energy Efficiency:
Next up, we have energy efficiency, as our blinds create an insulating barrier over your windows, blinds can be used as a great energy efficiency measure. For example, on cold winter days, your blinds can open when the Sun is out to help build up heat in your home, then once you’re at a desired temperature, or the Sun sets, the blinds can close to prevent that heat from escaping – Which will greatly improve the thermal efficiency of your home.
Convenience:
Our Smart Blinds have a great deal of convenient features available. Starting off, they have a simple and easy set up process, meaning you can have your Smart Blinds up and running in less than a minute; our Smart Blinds can also be controlled remotely via Apps and Smart Home integrations no matter where you are; you can program your blinds to your routine; and you can even control the blinds manually with the handy pull cord for when your Wi-Fi goes down or you have houseguests without app access.
Choose from MotionBlinds & Eve MotionBlinds smart blinds systems
Currently, we offer two different Smart Blind systems to use on your new Smart Roller Blinds, you can choose from our standard ‘MotionBlinds’ Smart Blinds system or the premium ‘Eve MotionBlinds’ Smart Blinds system. Both offer a great deal of utility and can be integrated into your smart home ecosystem or controlled via an app.
MotionBlinds System:
The standard MotionBlinds system we offer has two control options for you to use: the MotionBlinds app (via Bluetooth), or Smart Home Integration with a MotionBlinds Wi-Fi bridge. The MotionBlinds app will work on any modern smartphone and can be set up in less than a minute by downloading the app, then scanning the setup code on the blind to connect it via Bluetooth to the app. Once set up, you can remotely control the app via your smartphone up to 10 meters away! By using the Bluetooth control you secure your privacy as no data will leave your home, as the blind is controlled directly by Bluetooth. You can also set up to 3 different programming timers to set schedules for your Smart Blinds! The MotionBlinds Wi-Fi Bridge option allows you to use a Wi-Fi bridge to integrate your Smart Blinds into your home’s existing smart ecosystem. Once you have registered and connected your Wi-Fi bridge (sold separately) you’ll be able to operate and program your blinds via your existing smart home technology
Eve MotionBlinds System:
Right away, you can use Bluetooth control or a Wi-Fi bridge to control your Eve MotionBlinds, but looking further there are more options for how you control your Smart Blinds. Our Eve MotionBlinds will seamlessly work with Apple HomeKit technology, without any need for a Wi-Fi bridge or any cloud dependency!

Matter is an industry-unifying smart home standard, pioneered by over 200 of the world’s biggest tech companies to ensure that smart home technology from different companies can work in unison, allowing integration with all the prominent smart home systems on the market!
Quick smart blinds set up
Both our standard MotionBlinds and the more snazzy Eve MotionBlinds will be usable out of the box thanks to their manual pull cord, and can be set up incredibly quickly if you want to use the smart features! If you opt to use the Bluetooth MotionBlinds app to control your blinds, you can completely set up your blinds in less than a minute.
