Start with the decision you need to make
These guides answer the questions that normally come before a quotation: how to measure, how to control light and privacy, which motor and power route fits the room, and what the installation needs.
Light & privacy
Sheer and blackout curtain layering
Plan daytime light, evening privacy and bedroom darkness together. Compare track position, fullness, edge gaps and single- or dual-layer motorization.
Read the layering guide →Motorization
Motorized curtain power and controls
Compare wired, plug-in and selected rechargeable routes. Confirm the motor, track, remote, hub and smart-home platform as one system.
Compare power and controls →Smart-home compatibility
Motorized curtain compatibility guide
Use a room-by-room checklist for power, controls, hubs, apps and integrations. Avoid assuming that every motor works with every platform.
Check compatibility →Installation
What happens during installation
Prepare access, approvals, power and fixing areas. See how positioning, testing, handover and any return visit are handled.
Review the installation process →Care & maintenance
