At Controlux, we supply and install a wide range of premium electric blinds in Twickenham and surrounding areas of South London, to suit all homeowners and their unique styles.
Twickenham presents a compelling blend of architectural variety: historic terraces, riverside apartments along the Thames, and modern glazed extensions in and around Strawberry Hill and St Margarets. With such a rich range of glazing, the challenge isn’t simply letting in light; it’s managing it in a way that preserves comfort, energy‑performance, and style.
At Controlux, we specialise in electric blinds in Twickenham, offering motorised shading systems that respond to your home, your light conditions, and the way you live. With more than 35 years of technical and design expertise serving Southwest London, we deliver shading solutions that are both high‑performance and exquisitely finished.
Electric blinds, or motorised blinds, are driven by discrete motors controlled via wall switch, remote, app or voice assistant. They integrate with automation ecosystems (Lutron, Somfy, Crestron, Google Home) and move from luxury to necessity in homes where light, heat and privacy need to be finely tuned.
They offer more than convenience:
Integration with smart home systems so shading becomes part of your energy control, not just an accessory.
Electric blinds from Controlux allow your home to adapt dynamically: lowering as sunlight intensifies, rising when you want openness, or scheduling to optimise morning and evening routines.
While convenience is a major selling point, the true value of electric blinds lies in their performance impact:
Energy Efficiency- according to the Energy Saving Trust, up to 18% of heat loss in UK homes occurs through windows. Smart blinds can be programmed to lower during cooler nights and rise during sunny days, reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems.
Smart solar sensors and thermostatic integration can further optimise performance, creating a dynamic thermal barrier that responds in real time.
UV and Glare Protection- south-facing windows, common in many Richmond garden extensions, can lead to overheating and sun bleaching. Electric blinds can be automated to deploy during peak sunlight hours, protecting:
Enhanced Security- Motorised blinds can be programmed to open and close on a schedule, simulating occupancy while you’re away, a feature often requested by Richmond clients who travel regularly or own second homes.
We offer a wide range of electric blind systems that can be customised by fabric, mechanism, opacity, and control method. Whether you’re fitting out a heritage refurbishment or a high-spec new build, we provide:
Motorised Roller Blinds that are simple, sleek, and versatile, perfect for large glass doors or minimalist interiors. Choose from blackout, dim-out, or sheer fabrics.
