Central blind control: functions and solutions with Gira

You decide when the sun rises

Imagine the sun shining brightly through the windows into your living room. With just a tap on your tablet, the blinds close automatically to reduce glare and create a pleasant ambience. At the same time, you save energy by regulating the room temperature naturally. Thanks to the intelligent and centralised Gira blind control, you always enjoy the ideal indoor climate and maximum control over the light in your home.

Blind control: flexible and energy-efficient

Gira blind control allows you to regulate lighting and sunlight in your rooms as needed. Smart, automated control not only creates a pleasant indoor climate but also ensures energy efficiency.

Blind control in the Smart Home

A moment ago it was raining – now the sun is already shining into your living room, heating it up. With smart blind control, you are well prepared for sudden weather changes. Using a button press, voice command, or the app, you can set shading precisely. This means you are not dependent on heating or air conditioning to regulate the room temperature – and you save a significant amount of energy. Particularly practical:

In the Gira System 3000, your blinds adjust to the sun’s position thanks to the astro function.

In a KNX smart home, the Gira weather station Plus for KNX ensures that your blinds automatically move up when it rains or is windy.

With the Gira One smart home system, scenes allow your blinds facing the garden to automatically move up and stay up as soon as you open the patio door.

Alternatively, you can set individual schedules to protect your home from direct sunlight or unwanted views.

Blind control via app

Imagine you have just settled comfortably on the sofa when the sun suddenly becomes too bright. Or a storm starts after you have left the house with all blinds lowered. In these situations, all you need is your smartphone. With the right app, you can keep an eye on your building technology even without using a switch.

In the Gira System 3000, you establish a direct Bluetooth connection between the switch and your mobile device.

In the Gira KNX system, blind control works via the Gira Smart Home app – even when you are away from home. This allows you to check on things at any time, even when you are on holiday.

In the Gira One system, group control lets you move all blinds up or down at the same time – conveniently via the Gira Smart Home app.

Blind control via voice command

Aside from switches and apps, there is a third way to control your blinds. In KNX systems, you can integrate a voice assistant such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. A simple command is all it takes to control light and shade: “Alexa, open the blinds in the bedroom” or “Google, extend the awning on the terrace”. This offers a completely new level of comfort, especially for people with physical impairments, making everyday living easier in an accessible Smart Home.
