Automated Shading That Moves With Your Day
More than just up and down — light and shade exactly when you need them.
Shading as Part of the Bigger Picture
Shading doesn’t just react to sunlight or the time of day. It understands the room, the rhythm of the day and how you live in it.
It uses daylight intentionally: letting in pleasant warmth while keeping excess heat outside. Working together with heating and cooling, it naturally creates the right temperature.
Smart Shading for the Right Conditions
Smart Home
Shading adapts to your daily routine — creating comfortable light, a balanced indoor climate and greater privacy.
Office
Glare-free daylight and stable temperatures create a workspace, where people can stay focused and work comfortable.
Hotel
Special Cases
In public buildings, intelligent shading creates the right conditions — adapted to usage, time of day and surroundings.

The day begins gently. Shading responds to the first rays of sunlight, letting exactly the right amount of light into your home. The sun’s energy is used intentionally to support your rooms naturally – efficient and cost-effective.
In the evening, the shading lowers, creating privacy and bringing the whole house to rest. Everything works together, effortlessly. With LOXONE, shading adapts to your everyday life – not the other way around.

Shading protects against overheating, uses daylight intentionally and supports a balanced indoor climate. The result is an environment where people feel comfortable — whether in an office, hotel, or retail space.
At the same time, the impact on energy demand becomes noticeable. Rooms stay at stable temperatures without constant manual adjustments. With LOXONE, shading becomes part of a system that simplifies processes and reduces operating costs.

Through predictive control, smart LOXONE shading not only reduces energy costs for heating and cooling. It also creates comfortable lighting conditions and a balanced indoor climate that makes spaces more attractive to use.
At the same time, shading elements are protected from weather damage. The result: lower operating costs and investments that retain their value.
Protects the People
Automated shading doesn’t just consider light and shadow – it considers the people in the room.
In the evening, the shading system closes automatically to protect your privacy. If the balcony or patio door opens, it clears the way – no one gets locked out.
Your building even thinks for itself in an emergency: In the event of a fire, the shading opens to clear escape routes. As part of the alarm system, it simulates occupancy and signals activity in the house – providing additional protection against burglars.
Key Features for Intelligent Shading
Temperature Control
In winter, the shading system remains open to reduce heating costs by harnessing solar heat. In summer, it closes proactively to passively cool the building and reduce the load on the air conditioning system.
Sun Tracking
The blinds align precisely with the sun’s position. This maximizes natural light without glare and makes optimal use of solar energy.
Active Storm Protection
Using weather stations, the system immediately detects gusts of wind and moves the shading elements into a safe, protected position to prevent damage.
Built-in Freeze Protection
When temperatures drop below freezing, the system prevents frozen slats or roller shutters from moving.
Presence-Based Control
When no one is in the room, the system optimizes energy efficiency. When people are present, the focus is on privacy and glare control.
Security Interaction
In the event of an alarm (smoke or break-in), the shades automatically raise to clear escape routes and allow emergency personnel to see inside.
Gentle Awakening
Instead of a loud alarm clock, the blinds can be raised gradually in the morning to let in natural daylight.
Flexible Sun Protection for Every Need
Whether it’s venetian blinds, roller shutters, awnings, or pleated blinds – any type of sun protection can be easily integrated into the overall system. Custom solutions adapt flexibly to the building’s architecture, its intended use and personal needs.
Simple Operation
LOXONE has been deliberately designed for ease of use. Just press a button and the shades move to the desired position – creating exactly the atmosphere you want at that moment.
With the free LOXONE App, you always have your shading under control. Whether it’s individual rooms or your entire home – just one tap is all it takes to adjust the light and shade exactly to suit your needs at that moment.

Yes. Smart shading prevents rooms from overheating in the summer and reduces unnecessary heat loss in the winter. This way, it promotes energy-efficient use of space.
How does shading help protect against the heat?
Smart shading detects direct sunlight and responds in a timely manner. Rooms remain at a comfortable temperature before they even start to heat up. This reduces the need for cooling and saves energy.
Can I retrofit existing roller shutters or blinds?
In many cases, yes. Existing electric shutters or blinds can be integrated into the shading control system – ideal for retrofit projects.
What happens during a storm or when it rains?
Sensors detect changes in the weather and automatically protect awnings or systems. This ensures that your sun protection remains reliable.
