Electric blinds for outside: smart sun protection

Q: What are electric blinds?

Electric blinds are external sun shading systems with adjustable slats that are controlled by a motor. They offer reliable sun, privacy and heat protection and enable precise, needs-based light control.

Q: How are electric blinds controlled?

Electric blinds are controlled by wall switch, radio remote control, app or Smart Home system from ROMA. If required, also with sensors for automated control according to the position of the sun, time or weather conditions.

Q: Are electric blinds energy efficient?

Yes, because external installation effectively reduces solar radiation, which significantly reduces the need for cooling in summer. This saves energy and improves the indoor climate, especially if they are automated.

Electric Venetian blinds for outdoor use combine modern living comfort with efficient sun and privacy protection. ROMA offers intelligent, external blind solutions that can be optimally integrated into any façade - whether for new builds, energy-efficient renovations or retrofitting existing buildings.

Electric blinds from ROMA: precise light control and modern design

In everyday language, Venetian blinds are often used synonymously with External Venetian Blinds. These external sun protection systems consist of adjustable external venetian blind slats that can be controlled electrically. By positioning them in front of the window, they reflect the sun's rays and thus prevent the interior from heating up. At the same time, the incoming daylight can be individually regulated.

Electric external venetian blinds from ROMA impress with their high aesthetics, durability and precise daylight control. The slats can be flexibly adjusted depending on the position of the sun - for more living comfort, less glare and optimum privacy. They therefore not only provide effective heat protection, but also actively support the energy efficiency of buildings.
