Have You Heard About the First Retrofit Smart System for Curtains?

You’ve likely heard of curtains that work automatically. They may require you to push a button on a remote control, or a button on the wall, but they can be opened and closed without getting up and going across the room. While these may seem cool at first, there are a couple of issues with them: they’re expensive and you don’t have many options in the style or fabric of the curtains you get. A new company could be changing that for good.

This new product would work on any curtains – including the ones hung in your home right now

The best thing about this option to automate curtains is that it works on any curtains. If you’ve recently bought new drapes, then you wouldn’t have to go out and buy entirely new curtains. If you’re thinking of investing in new curtains, then you could check out the huge, affordable variety at Half Price Drapes and simply add this new automation system to the curtains you pick.

The way it works is pretty simple

You need one unit for every set of horizontal curtains you have. You then use an app on your phone to either immediately close or open the curtains, or to schedule them to open at a certain time. You can use the same network for up to 20 pairs of curtains – assuming you have a unit for each one – and have them open or close together or separately. The way it works is that the component is installed behind your curtains, at either end of your curtain rod and in the middle hook. There’s then a wire that goes from the sides to the middle and physically pulls the curtains open or pushes them closed when you tell it to.

Unique ways this technology could be used

Of course this type of automation could be used to take care of curtains anytime you just don’t feel like getting up, but there are a lot of additional uses we can see too. For example, a handicapped person who can’t reach the curtain rod would now have a way to open and close the curtains themselves. Likewise, those curtains that are well out of your reach? For example, above a doorway? You can easily open and close them. Finally, consider how amazing of an alarm clock it would be – just tell it to open your curtains wide at 8 AM and you’ll be woken by the sun.
