Controlling natural light has become as important as controlling artificial light in the home. Not only are living spaces becoming ever larger and more open, but large expanses of glass increasingly feature everywhere.

Lots of ambient light is always the desired aim, but a simple means also needs to be provided to control it throughout the property. In many instances, the requirement is to prevent spaces being heated to an uncomfortable level by unrestrained sunlight, not to mention the detrimental effect on furniture and artwork. This important consideration is not to be underestimated even in a relatively temperate and mild climate as in Ireland.

As with lighting control, Lutron is our brand of choice in the area of automated blinds and curtains. There are many reputed brands in the marketplace, but most fall way short in the area of control. As the global leader in controlling lights, Lutron already has a ready-made and extremely elegant means of operating its curtains and blinds. Indeed, much of our work involves delivering a combined control of both from shared Keypads.

Lutron offers a vast array of solutions from venetian, roman, ‘honeycomb’ and roller blinds to all manner of curtain rails and tracks including bespoke solutions for curved bays and more unusual requirements. Battery driven blinds solutions are also available for existing properties where a ‘first fix’ of cables isn’t possible.
