All you need to know about new FYRTUR and KADRILJ smart blinds

How do you install the blinds?
It’s really simple, not too dissimilar from existing blinds – just follow the assembly instructions included.

Do they require an electrician to install?
No, the motorised blinds come complete with a rechargeable battery – no need to wire into the mains electricity.

How are the wireless blinds operated?
The blinds can be used most simply with the remote control included. Alternatively pair them with the IKEA TRÅDFRI app, available to install on iOS or Android. Do this via the TRÅDFRI gateway (sold separately). Multiple blinds can be operated by the same means.

Can voice control operate the blinds?
Yes, through the app you can control both via Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Google Home.

 

What’s the design difference between FYRTUR and KADRILJ?
Both feature the same motorised mechanism. KADRILJ fabric is sheer, allowing light through while providing privacy. FYRTUR is a black-out woven material to block out all light – creating the ideal sleeping environment.

Can the motorised blinds pair with existing IKEA blinds?
Yes! KADRILJ has the same fabric as SKOGSKLÖVER grey blinds, and FYRTUR has the same fabric as TRETUR grey.

Can they be cut to fit window sizes?
Sadly no, but both designs are available in 5 different sizes.With 60cm, 80cm, 100cm, 120cm and 140cm hopefully there’s one to fit most window sizes.

Can the KADRILJ or FYRTUR blinds be used in bathrooms/outdoors?

No, for healthy and safety reasons. They can be used in all other indoor areas of the home.
