The upsell that pays for itself in daily use
A tubular motor sits inside the blind roll itself, controlled by handset remote, phone app, wall switch, schedule or sensor. It's the premium option across every product in our range — and on a wall of glass, above a stair void, or on an exterior awning left unattended, it stops being a luxury and starts being the only sensible spec.
Power comes two ways: rechargeable battery motors, retrofit-friendly with no wiring (charge every few months, the apartment and renovation default), or wired 220V motors for new builds and major renovations — permanent, no charging, and the right call for big or heavy systems and anything exterior. An electrician and some planning are needed for wired runs, which is worth raising early with your contractor if you're renovating.
