Our products are made to measure. Enter the desired width and height of your blind and we will take care of the rest. You don't have to take into account any margins, we will calculate them ourselves. Please note! Before you start measuring, pay attention to any obstacles such as door and/or window fittings that protrude, heating pipes or inward-turning doors and windows.

Want to know how to measure? Check out our measuring instructions!

  1. Option A: Determine dimensions for mounting inside the recess

    Measure the width at the top of the window recess and measure the height at the middle of the window recess. Please note! We supply the blind with a 3 mm reduction on both sides. So don't do any reductions yourself! Please also note a system height of 100 mm for possible obstacles such as doors and windows turning inwards.

  2. Please note that the width size given is the size of the system. The fabric is always narrower than the system, see this article for more information.

  3. Option B: Determine dimensions for mounting outside the recess

    Measure the width and height of the window recess, with a small overlap. We recommend an overlap of 5 cm on both sides. Add a total of 10 cm to the width measurement. To determine the height, add 10 cm (height of system) to the height of your window recess. Do you want your blind to continue downwards? Then decide how many extra centimetres you want in height.

You can choose to hang your blind inside the recess or outside the recess:

  1. Inside the recess
    inside
    If you hang the roller blind inside the recess, it is mounted between the walls of your window. With this choice, we therefore supply your blind with a 3 mm reduction on both sides.
  2. Outside the recess
    outside
    If you hang the blind outside the recess, it is mounted on the wall and hangs over the window with overlap on both sides.

At Smartblinds, you have the choice between 2 different motors. Read about the differences below, so you know which motor to choose.

Motionblinds Bluetooth motor

Operation possible via:

  • Pull cord

  • Remote control (can be added as an optional accessory)

  • MotionBlinds Bluetooth app

    With the Motionblinds Bluetooth app, you can control Smartblinds indoors. In addition, you can set timers in the app when your blinds automatically move, regardless of whether you are at home or not.

  • To connect to a home automation system (e.g. Homey, IFTTT or Home Assistant), we recommend you choose the Motionblinds Bluetooth Motor and connect it to your home automation system via a Motionblinds Wi-Fi bridge.




Eve Motionblinds Matter motor

Operation possible via:

  • Pull cord

  • Remote control (can be added as an optional accessory)

  • Linking to your smart home

    The Eve Motionblinds Matter motor allows you to link your Smartblinds directly to your favourite smart home platform. This allows you to control your Smartblinds anywhere, anytime, set timers and add your Smartblinds to automations and scenes with other smart home devices. To connect to your smart home platform, you do need a smart hub that supports the Matter protocol.

By choosing a motor side, you determine on which side you want to operate and charge your Smartblinds. If you choose the left side, the motor, pull-down controller and charging port are located on the left side of the product. Would you like this to be on the right-hand side? Then choose right.

At Smartblinds, you can pick from 3 different bottom bars:

metal bottom bar

Metal bottom bar

We supply your blind with a metal bottom bar as standard. The luxurious metal bottom bar provides a sleek and modern finish to your blind. The colour of your metal bottom bar is determined by your system colour. For example, if you choose a black system, the colour of your bottom bar will also be black. The metal bottom bar has got a height of 2.5 centimeters.

gestoffeerde onderlijst

Straight covered bottom bar

Besides a metal bottom bar, you can also choose a straight covered bottom bar. With an straight covered bottom bar, the front and back of the bottom bar are tightly finished with the fabric of the blind. The colour of the bottom rail therefore matches the type and colour of the fabric you choose. The straight covered bottom bar has got a height of 3 centimetres.

Straight Sewn Bottom Bar

Straight Sewn Bottom Bar

With a straight sewn bottom bar, your roller blind will have a bottom hem. The bottom bar consists of a plastic weighting that allows the blind fabric to hang nicely straight. The fabric is pulled around the plastic weighting and glued to the back of your blind. The plastic weighting is 1.5 cm high. The total height of the straight sewn bottom bar is 3 centimetres.

Side spans, or wire guidance allows you to securely fasten the bottom bar of the roller blind to an opening door or a tilt-and-turn window. This system works by means of a metal wire running from the system to the bottom bar. There is an eyelet on the bottom bar through which the wire runs. At the bottom, the metal wire is attached to a support.

Note: Side spans are only possible in combination with a small brackets system and an straight covered bottom bar/straight sewn bottom bar. No metal

Note: If you choose clamp supports, you still need to select the clamp supports for the top under the clamp supports option.

Note: The width of a roller blind with side spans is 1cm narrower than a roller blind without lateral guide.

These support brackets are available in 4 options:

Standard outside the recess

side span

Clamp mounts (tilt-and-turn window)

side span clamp mounts

Luxury outside the recess

side spans luxury

Luxe inside the recess

side spans luxury

Clamping brackets are used when you want to mount the blind on or to a turn-tilt window without drilling. Clamp supports are suitable for plastic and aluminium tilt-and-turn windows. You can easily clamp them around the edge your turn-tilt window with the supplied Allen key.

Please note: Clamp supports are only possible with the small side support system.

Would you also like to be able to control your curtains with a remote control? Then add it to your order! With one remote control, you can operate up to 5 different curtains.

Here you can fill in a reference for your assembled blind. That way you will soon know exactly which product is for which window in your house!

When you are looking for window coverings, it is important to determine beforehand what transparency you want in certain rooms. In bedrooms, for example, more blackout is usual than in the living room. Smartblinds fabrics can be divided into three different transparencies:

Blackout

Opacity: none - Light from outside is completely blocked and has no possibility to illuminate rooms.

Light filtering

Opacity: limited - Light from outside is obstructed, but not completely blocked.

Sheer

Opacity: full - Light from outside finds its way in, but the fabric offers the desired privacy.

Your blinds should, of course, match your interior. The colour and look of fabrics and materials can sometimes differ from reality from a screen or due to differences in light transmission. We therefore always recommend requesting free fabric samples in advance, so you can assess the fabric (colour) in real life!

Our systems are available in two sizes, small and large. The small system is suitable for small to medium-sized roller blinds. For large sized blinds, only a large system is possible. Our advice is to start by putting together the roller blind for your largest window in the house. If it turns out that you can only choose a large system for this blind, we recommend doing the same for the rest of your Smartblinds. This way you avoid having multiple Smartblinds in your home with different systems. Is your largest product also suitable for a small system? Then choose the system size that you prefer.

Below you will find the system height of the various systems, so that you can take this into account when ordering. Are you mounting your product in the window, but do you have a window that opens inwards? Then you can use this to check whether you have enough room for this.

Be aware! The system sizes below are all sizes for motorised products. Do you want to view the system sizes of our chain operated Smartblinds? Click the link below.

Connecting our wireless motors

Motionblinds Bluetooth motor

The Motionblinds Bluetooth motor is easy to connect. All you need is the QR code of the blind and a phone with the MotionBlinds Bluetooth app on it. Scan the QR code via the app and the rest of the steps will show themselves in the app.

Eve Motionblinds Matter motor

When you choose our Eve Motionblinds Matter motor, your Smartblinds will be delivered with the advanced Eve Motionblinds motor. This motor works via the innovative Matter protocol, allowing you to link your Smartblinds with your own smart home platform. See below which smart hubs support the Matter protocol.

How it works

Eve MotionBlinds Matter motor
The Eve Motionblinds Matter motor is the most advanced roller blind motor on the market. Besides controlling your Smartblinds with the handy pull cord and any remote control, you get many other control options with this motor. With the Matter set-up (QR) code on the tassel of your blind, you connect your Smartblinds directly to your smart home platform. The only thing you need in your home to control your Smartblinds with your smart home platform is a border router of the relevant smart home platform that supports the Matter protocol. Through your smart home, you link your Smartblinds to scenes, automations and control your blinds anywhere and anytime with your smartphone.

Please note: The video you see here is of an older version of the motor (not supported by Matter). Without a bridge, this motor can only connect directly to Apple HomeKit.
Motionblinds Bluetooth motor
With the Motionblinds Bluetooth motor, you can use the Motionblinds Bluetooth App to link your Smartblinds via the QR code of your blind with your smartphone and control them indoors (Bluetooth range is about 10 metres). Besides swiping your blinds to the right height, you can also set timers when you want your Smartblinds to move. These timers are set on the motor, so you don't have to be at home to activate them. Of course, you can also operate the Motionblinds Bluetooth motor by means of the pull cord and possibly with a remote control. You can add these to your order.

Please note: If you want to connect Smartblinds to a home automation system such as Home Assistant, Homey or IFTTT, for example, choose the Motionblinds Bluetooth motor as well. Using a Motionblinds WiFi bridge, you can connect the Bluetooth motors to your home automation system.
