Shutter switches - an essential element of lighting control

Shutter switches are a key element of the electrical installation in modern buildings.   They enable convenient control of blinds, roller shutters and awnings. At Onninen, we offer a wide selection of these products. Our portfolio includes solutions from leading brands. These include Ospel, Kontakt-Simon, Legrand and Schneider Electric. We also supply our own brand Onnline.

In everyday practice, we see a growing interest in these elements. This is due to their versatility and functionality. Shutter switches provide precise control over the level of sunlight in rooms. This is particularly important in offices and commercial spaces. There, work comfort depends on appropriate lighting.

Types of blind connectors available from Onninen

Our range includes many types of blind connectors. Each has its own unique features and applications. Here are the most important types:

• Standard shutter switches
• Stair switches for control from several locations
• Roller shutter switches with time function
• Roller shutter switches with mechanical lock
• Illuminated switches for easy location in the dark
• Normally open switches for automation systems

The selection of the appropriate type of connector depends on the specifics of the installation and the needs of the users.   In the case of large office spaces, stair switches are suitable. They allow control from different points. For private homes, we recommend switches with a mechanical lock. They provide additional protection against accidental activation.

Selection criteria for blind switches - what to pay attention to?

When choosing blind switches, several key aspects should be considered. The first is compatibility with the existing system. It is important that the switch works with the blind or roller shutter drive. Another factor is the type of installation - flush or surface mounted. This affects the aesthetics and functionality of the installation.

Another important parameter is the load capacity of the switch contacts. It must correspond to the power of the connected devices. At Onninen, we advise on the selection of optimal solutions. Our experience allows us to precisely match products to your needs.

It is worth paying attention to the additional functions of blind switches.   Some models offer time programming. Others have light sensors or integration with smart home systems. These advanced options increase user comfort and energy efficiency.

For public facilities, we recommend switches with backlighting. They facilitate localization in poor lighting conditions. This is particularly useful in corridors or stairwells. For office spaces, we recommend solutions with the possibility of central control.

Practical applications of shutter connectors in various types of buildings

Shutter switches are widely used in various projects. In office buildings, we often install systems with normally open switches. They enable integration with building management systems. This allows for central control of sunlight and temperature.

In hotels, switches with a time function are useful. They allow automatic lowering of blinds at specific times. This increases the comfort of guests and affects the energy efficiency of the facility. In the case of conference rooms, we install switches with the possibility of group control.

We recently used an advanced system in a project for a large shopping center.   We used blind switches with integration with light sensors. This allowed for automatic adjustment of the blind position to external conditions. The effect was a significant reduction in air conditioning and lighting costs.

In single-family homes, switches with a mechanical lock are popular. They provide safety, especially in children's rooms. For customers who value modernity, we offer switches compatible with smart home systems. They allow control using a mobile application or voice assistants.

In the case of modernization of older buildings, we often use surface-mounted connectors. They allow for quick installation without the need to break down the walls. This is an economical and practical solution, especially in historic buildings.

Many customers ask us about the possibility of integrating blind switches with alarm systems. In such cases, we recommend solutions with a presence simulation function. Automatic blind control increases safety during the absence of household members.

Our experience shows that properly selected shutter connectors significantly improve the comfort of using buildings.   At Onninen we offer not only products but also expert advice. We help in selecting the optimal solutions for specific projects. Our specialists are able to propose the most effective and economical options.

In the case of large investments, such as office complexes or hotels, we offer comprehensive support. This includes design, product selection and technical support during installation. This gives our customers the confidence that the system will operate reliably and efficiently.

Onninen especially recommends solutions from our own brand Onnline. These products combine high quality and attractive price. They are designed with the needs of the Polish market in mind and meet all required standards.

We invite you to contact our technical advisors. They will help you choose the right blind connectors for your project. We guarantee a professional approach and individual solutions tailored to the specifics of each investment.
