The benefits of Home Automation & Electronic Blinds
Still not sold on Home Automation? Our Electronic Blinds and Awnings come with a huge range of attractive benefits!
- Ultimate convenience. You can have complete control over shade, sunlight, privacy and energy consumption at the touch of a button. Many of our Home Automation Systems can also be integrated into a new or existing System.
- Safer for children and pets. Our Home Automation Systems eliminate the need for cords or cables, ensuring your children and pets are safe from potential choking hazards.
- Sleek and stylish. Without chains, cords or cables, your window coverings will have clean lines and a stylish finish. We can even install a contemporary control pad into the wall or provide an easy-to-use remote control.
- Quiet operation. Your Blinds and Awnings will open and close nearly silently — perfect for a relaxed morning in bed.
- Protection for Outdoor Awnings. With automation, you have the opportunity to add a Motion or Wind Sensor that automatically responds to harsh weather conditions. When the wind starts to pick up, your Awnings will retract for protection, so you will have extra peace of mind whether you’re at home or away.

Our Process
Step 1
The initial design consultation
Thinking of installing new Blinds or Awnings? You’re welcome to visit our showroom in Mayfield West, or we can visit you at home for a free consultation. Our team will listen to your design ideas, needs and requirements and take precise measurements of your windows.
We’ll also share hundreds of fabric samples, colours and patterns for your new window coverings so that you can compare the fabric to your home interior or facade.
Step 2
A free measure & quote
During the initial design consultation, we’ll take meticulous measurements to provide a competitive quote. We never “guesstimate” our quotes — we base our prices on the product, the Motorisation or Home Automation requirements, the electrical work required, and the window size.
This is a 100% free service! There’s no pressure to make a decision on the day — we’ll leave you with a quote and some fabric samples to consider before deciding to purchase.
Step 3
Supply & installation
Installing Electronic Blinds is quick and simple with Pazazz Blinds & Shutters! Once your new Blinds or Awnings have come back from the manufacturer, our team will be in touch to book the installation.
Installation is as simple as connecting the Electronic Blinds to a power source, pairing remote controls and setting the limits for your Blinds or Awnings. If we have recommended a 240V motor, we can directly hardwire it to the power lines or install powerpoints nearby — direct hardwiring is the neatest option, and we can take care of all of this for you.
Plus, when we say we take care of everything, we mean it. We’ll treat your home as if it was our own and leave the space looking better than when we arrived… Mainly because we just installed fresh new Blinds or Awnings!

FAQs about Home Automation
What can be Motorised?
Many of our products can be Motorised, including the following for each category:
Shutters: Roller Shutters
Blinds: Roller Blinds, Roman Blinds, Honeycomb Blinds & Sheer Elegance Blinds
Awnings: Zipscreen Awnings, Straight Drop Awnings, Pivot Arm Awnings, Wire Guide Awnings & Folding Arm Awnings
Curtains: Sheer Curtains, Blockout Curtains & Veri Shades®
Can you operate multiple blinds individually?
If you order more than 1 blind, we will supply you with a multi-channel remote. This allows you to control all blinds simultaneously, individually or in different combinations.
Can I add a sensor to my Awning/s to protect them from the wind?
We have both wind & motion sensors available which are a fantastic addition for added peace of mind. This senses the wind activity and will bring up/retract your awning when required. Keep in mind that this does not guarantee safety of your awning and all awnings should still be monitored by the user and put away in high winds.
What is the main benefit of Motorising my blinds?
Motorisation makes operating your blinds easier than ever and takes away the physical work you put in when using them. We often recommend Motorisation when you have multiple blinds, if they are difficult to reach or for heavier Folding Arm Awnings.
