Automated shading
Intelligent
Shading
More than up & down.
Save energy.
Automated shading systems adapt to the position of the sun and the sun’s energy. They work together with your heating and cooling system to bring and maintain your rooms at the ideal temperature in the most energy efficient way – through harnessing or blocking out the sun as needed. In addition, automated shading ensures that the brightness in every room is just right with as little artificial lighting being needed as possible.

Fits every project
Whether it’s a smart home, an office, a warehouse or a residential complex, whatever stage of construction your project is at, we offer a wide range of intelligent shading solutions to fulfil your needs.
Shading with Venetian blinds
Venetian blinds and external venetian blinds are perfect for optimising the use of solar energy thanks to their movable slats.
Shading with roller shutters
Roller shutters offer the best darkening, the most secure burglary protection and are resilient against the elements.
Shading with awnings
Awnings offer protection from direct sunlight on balconies and patios. Their high sensitivity to wind requires Loxone automated storm protection.
Other types of shading
Whether pleated blinds, curtains, vertical blinds, etc – any type of shading can be integrated in a straightforward manner by trained Loxone Partners.

Far more than just shading
With Loxone, your blinds will take care of a multitude of tasks.
Temperature Management
In the summer, your blinds will help to prevent your rooms from becoming too hot. In the winter, they will help keep some of the warmth in. This is all done automatically.Â
Privacy Protection
At sunset, your blinds will automatically close to offer you some privacy from the outside world.Â
Storm Protection
If you have external shutters or awnings and there happens to be a storm, these will automatically retract to protect against wind damage.
Flexible Groups
With Loxone you have the ability to group your blinds. Decide how many you want and what sets of blinds should go in each group – then you can control these groups as one.Â
Child Lock
If you have young children, you can enable our Child Lock feature. This will temporarily disable the switches in order to prevent the little ones adjusting the blinds. Whilst this is enabled you can still operate the blinds via the app. Â
Safety
around-the-clock
If you are on holiday your blinds will mimic your behaviour to deter potential burglars. Also if there is an emergency whilst you’re in, the blinds will automatically raise to make escape routes more accessible.Â
Wake up
with light
Be gently brought out of your sleep by natural light – with Loxone your blinds will automatically raise in the morning to bring you out of your slumber.
In perfect
harmony
From music to security to lighting, with Loxone every aspect of your system will work hand in hand. This results in a harmonious ecosystem.
Solar OptimisationÂ
Your Loxone system will know where the sun is and what the temperature is. It uses this information to adjust the blinds and heat your rooms via natural sources – thus saving energy.Â
