Smart homes are becoming more common—and window treatments are no exception. Electric or motorized curtains combine function and elegance, allowing you to control light and privacy with a button or voice command. Here’s how to install them in under an hour, even if you’re not an expert.


πŸ›  Tools & Materials You’ll Need:

  • Motorized curtain track & motor

  • Screws, brackets (usually provided)

  • Electric screwdriver

  • Pencil, tape measure, spirit level

  • Curtains (pinch pleat or track-compatible)

  • Remote or smart hub (if applicable)


🧱 Step 1: Choose the Mounting Location

Decide whether you’ll mount the track to the ceiling or wall. Ceiling mounts give a more minimalist, seamless look, especially for floor-to-ceiling curtains.

Mark your installation height using a level and pencil to ensure even mounting.


πŸ“ Step 2: Measure the Space

Measure the total track length needed. Most motorized curtain kits allow customization or trimming. Add 20–30 cm of width to allow curtains to fully open without blocking light.


🧩 Step 3: Assemble the Track

Snap together any modular track sections. Make sure the motor side aligns with your power outlet. Then attach the motor as per the instructions—it often locks in with a click or twist.


πŸ”© Step 4: Install the Mounting Brackets

Using the drill, fix brackets at marked positions. For long windows, use a bracket every 40–60 cm to ensure the track stays stable.

Slide or clip the curtain track into the installed brackets and double-check for level alignment.


πŸͺŸ Step 5: Attach Curtains

Slide the curtain runners/hooks onto the track. Hang your curtains and adjust the pleats or folds to sit evenly.


⚑ Step 6: Power It Up

Plug the motor into a nearby outlet. If it’s rechargeable, ensure it has enough charge for setup. Some systems also come with solar charging options.


πŸ“² Step 7: Sync & Automate

Pair the curtain motor with its remote or app. Many motors come with simple setup modes—often just holding a button until a light flashes. Follow the included manual or scan a QR code for app pairing.

You can now schedule open/close times, control via voice assistant, or integrate with your smart home system.


🌟 Bonus Tips:

  • Use curtain tiebacks to prevent fabric bunching during movement.

  • For wider windows, dual-motor systems or center-opening tracks can provide smoother coverage.

  • Avoid overloading the track—check the motor’s weight limit.


With just a bit of preparation and the right tools, installing electric curtains can be a quick weekend project. The convenience of remote-controlled elegance is now at your fingertips.
