The Benefits of Somfy Automation
Get in touch with Sheerview Window Furnishings to discuss how we can provide you with a better living experience!
- With a simple touch you can have the convenience of moving your blinds or curtains to exactly the right spot for you. Impress your guests with the automated process using a remote control or the Somfy TaHoma app on your smartphone.
- The TaHoma app is also compatible with third-party devices like Amazon Echo and Google Home, allowing you to use voice control. TaHoma switch adds two programmable scene buttons, so a whole routine runs from a single touch.
- Provide a more energy efficient home by controlling the amount of heat and light entering your home. Reflect the summer sun to keep your home cool or allow your home to capture the sun during the winter months.
- Manual operation of your blinds and curtains can cause them to wear down quicker thorough excessive use. However, with Somfy motorisation you can enjoy a longer lifespan thanks to the smooth controlled operation.
- Have you got young children? We all know about the dangers of cords and chains to young children, right? We, like Somfy believe that Safety is important! It is with this automation that you can say goodbye to those hazardous cords and chains!
- All motors are discreet given they can be fully concealed inside the tube of the blind.
- Providing nothing short of the best in user experience, the Somfy range is a quiet automated system. In particular the Sonesse range has been specifically designed for silence, going above and beyond exceeding user experience.
Automate Motorisation by Rollease Acmeda
Somfy is not the only motor we fit. Automate, by Rollease Acmeda, is the second range we carry, and it has earned its place in the industry on engineering rather than on price alone. It sits below Somfy on cost without asking you to accept less in the way of reliability, which makes it worth quoting on larger jobs where the motor count adds up.
- 01
How It Is Controlled
Automate motors come hardwired or battery-powered and run from a handheld remote, or through the Automate Pulse PRO hub for smartphone app and voice control with Google Home and Amazon Alexa. As with Somfy, the motor is concealed inside the tube of the blind, so nothing about the finished window gives away that it is automated.
- 02
Where It Suits
We fit Automate to roller blinds and to Zipscreen outdoor blinds. If you already run Somfy elsewhere in the house we will usually keep you on the one system so everything stays in a single app; where you are starting from scratch, we will quote both and let the budget decide.

Frequently asked questions
What can I control with Somfy motorisation?
Somfy motorisation lets you operate blinds, curtains, shutters and outdoor blinds by remote, the TaHoma app, wall switch, timer or voice command. TaHoma switch adds two programmable scene buttons, and schedules can close blinds during peak heat and open them in the morning automatically.
Does motorisation work with Google Home or Amazon Alexa?
Yes. Through TaHoma switch, Somfy integrates with major smart home platforms including Google Home and Amazon Alexa, so you can add your window furnishings to existing routines and scenes.
Is motorisation safer for homes with children?
Yes. Removing cords and chains eliminates the loop hazard that corded window coverings present, which is a significant safety benefit in homes with young children or pets.
Do you offer a free measure and quote on the Gold Coast?
Yes. Sheerview offers a free in-home design consultation, measure and quote across the Gold Coast. We come to you with samples so you can see materials, colours and finishes in your own light before deciding.
How long does it take to get window furnishings made and installed?
Because everything is custom made to your measurements, lead times vary by product and season. We confirm an expected timeframe with you at the time of quoting and keep you updated through manufacture and installation.
Can you colour match to my existing décor?
We can colour match on selected ranges. With a wide range of colour options available across our shutters, blinds and curtain fabrics, our consultant will bring samples so we can match to your existing paint, flooring and furnishings.
