Quality, innovation, service, support…
Much more than motorization for rolling shutters!
What products can be equipped with Somfy Motors?
Rolling Shutters
Rolling shutters insulate homes against weather conditions and even noise. When closed, shutters provide complete darkness and protect against harmful UV rays. Many businesses and homeowners use rolling shutters for additional security measures during off hours or while away for extended periods of time. Security shutters have gained popularity in the US in recent years, but have been used in European countries for decades.
Retractable Awnings
A motorized awning powered by Somfy instantly transforms your deck into a cool, comfortable outdoor living space at the simple touch of a button. It also protects your family and home from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Add a state-of-the-art sun or wind sensor to automatically react to weather conditions.
Retractable Screens
Motorized exterior screens absorb heat, reduce glare and block the sun to create your ideal ambiance. They provide a comfortable interior by blocking solar rays, which protects your furnishings, reduces glare and also saves money on heating and cooling costs. Motorized exterior screens can also be used in places such as windows, doors, and even larger openings to create a pleasant and pest-free outdoor area to enjoy.
