Motorised roller blinds in Singapore
Motorised roller blinds raise and lower with a remote, a wall switch, a phone app or a timer. The motor sits inside the roller tube, so the blind looks the same as a manual roller but without a chain hanging at the side. They suit tall condo glazing, windows behind beds, sofas or kitchen counters, and homes that want blinds to move on a schedule.

How a motorised roller works
A tubular motor turns the roll. You set upper and lower limits once, so the blind stops at the same place every time, and most motors remember a favourite middle position. Several blinds can be grouped, so one button lowers every blind on the sunny side of the flat.
Controls usually include a handheld remote, a wall switch, a phone app and timers. With a compatible home hub, many motors also work with voice assistants and scenes.
Battery or mains power
Rechargeable battery motors need no wiring, which makes them simple to add in an existing HDB flat or condo. They are charged with a cable every few months, depending on use and blind size. Mains motors need a power point near the top of the window and are best planned during renovation, before the false ceiling or pelmet goes in. We check the options at the home visit.
Singapore uses
Fabrics
Any roller fabric can be motorised: sunscreen for glare and view, dim-out for privacy with a soft glow, and blackout for sleep. Double rollers can have a motor on one or both rolls. Fabrics are usually polyester or fibreglass based, which handles humidity and resists mould.
Price and installation
Roller blinds are $5 to $6.50 per sq ft, installed, with a 20 sq ft minimum per blind. A blind motor adds $150 to $250 per blind, depending on the motor and controls. A home measuring visit with samples has a $50 deposit, credited to your order, and we price match written quotes for the same specification.
We measure each window, check where power or charging access will be, and advise on fitting inside the recess or on the ceiling. For a row of tall windows, we set the blinds so the hems line up when they are lowered together.
Care
Dust the fabric with a soft brush and wipe marks with a damp cloth. Keep the battery charged before it runs flat, and keep the remote away from humid bathrooms where possible.
Motorised rollers or motorised curtains
Motorised rollers cost less per window, sit flat and suit smaller windows, kitchens and studies. Motorised curtains suit wide living room windows and full-height glazing, where soft folds look better than one very large blind.
