Somfy motorized blinds in Montreal: what really changes
In Montreal, large windows, patio doors and skylights make manual operation tiring. Somfy motorization fixes that: a remote, the TaHoma app, or a schedule. We are a certified Somfy Expert based in Beaconsfield, and we install the motor at the same time as the shade.
What a motorized blind changes at home
In the morning, solar shades lower before the sun hits the living room. In the evening, blackouts close without a stepladder. On a 3-metre bay, you feel the difference within a week. We motorize roller shades, solar screens, Ripple Fold and other Somfy-compatible systems.
Somfy, TaHoma and the smart home
Somfy motors work with a remote, a wall switch, the TaHoma app, Alexa, Google Home or Apple HomeKit depending on the motor. We choose the motor with you based on width, fabric weight and how you want to control it. Somfy motors have a 5-year warranty.
Montreal, West Island, Laval: where we install
We serve Montreal, the West Island (our base), Laval, the South Shore and the North Shore. In-home consultation and quote are free. Professional installation is included. We do not push motorization: if a cordless shade is enough, we say so.
How much does a Somfy motorized blind cost?
Price depends on width, fabric and motor. We give a first idea after a photo text to (514) 967-3629, then a firm price after measurements are verified at your home.
Frequently asked questions
**Do you need new wiring?** No. A battery motor needs no wires. A 120 V motor is connected by a licensed electrician, to an outlet or hard-wired.
**Is it noisy?** Current motors are quiet; we demonstrate on site.
**Does it work without internet?** The local remote still works if Wi-Fi drops.
**What warranty?** From 5 to 10 years depending on the product; Somfy motors 5 years.
