The Uni-Blinds W Smart integral blind system is enabling homeowners to benefit from the convenience of a motorised shading and privacy solution for their windows and doors without the need for hard-wiring during installation.
Using power provided by a rechargable battery, the W Smart operates independently of a home’s mains electricity supply. The rechargeable battery is charged-up occasionally using a micro-USB cable to give the integral blind more than sufficient electricity to operate it under normal conditions.
Available in a Venetian or pleated style, as with all Uni-Blinds the W Smart is manufactured exclusively using the world-renowned ScreenLine integral blind systems to guarantee superior long term performance and excellent aesthetics. It is simple to operate using a slide touch button control device magnetically attached to the window or by a remote control unit, both of which raise and lower the blind – and, in the case of the Venetian, tilt the slats.
W Smart represents the latest in innovative and ecological Italian design, providing an integral blind that can be encapsulated within a 20, 22, 27 or 29mm cavity double glazed unit. The blind does not require hardwiring into a home’s mains electrical system, which makes installation straightforward without the need for an electrician.
Ian Short, Managing Director of Morley Glass said: “The beauty of the W Smart is that it can operate totally free of mains power apart from an occasional recharge using a micro-USB connection, giving homeowners the benefits of a motorised integral blind without the need to disrupt their decor during installation.”
Another exciting development of W Smart, due for release early 2023, is a smart home enhancement. A new plug and play smart hub called ScreenHub, developed by ScreenLine manufacturer Pellini, enables the blind to be controlled using a smart phone app – a further benefit in addition to the remote control device already provided.
W Smart is incorporated into double and triple glazed units manufactured by Morley Glass using advanced glass products that offer superior thermal insulation and solar control. Specifying glass such as Low E One for W Smart blinds will deliver a complete integrated solar powered blind unit with ultra-low U-values, and solar control can be boosted by choosing Saint-Gobain COOL-LITE SKN 176 glass to prevent summertime overheating.
W Smart, as with all Uni-Blinds, is supplied in the industry’s shortest lead times – manufactured to order in Leeds by Morley Glass in as little as 10-12 days, when an order is placed by 10am on Thursdays, with complimentary nationwide delivery.
