The Smart Curtain Kit 5.2 Mtrs is an automatic motorized curtain track system built for medium to large windows and sliding doors. It covers curtain spans of up to 5.2 metres on a single track. Instead of pulling curtains by hand, you open and close them with a remote, a smartphone app, or a voice command. As a result, it suits living rooms, master bedrooms, boardrooms, and hotel suites where wide glazing is common.
Motorized Track with Quiet, Smooth Operation
At the heart of the Smart Curtain Kit 5.2 Mtrs is an electric curtain motor mounted at the end of the track. The motor drives a belt system that glides the curtain carriers along the rail. Consequently, curtains travel evenly from edge to edge without snagging or jerking.
Operation stays quiet. The motor is designed for low-noise running, so it works in bedrooms and meeting rooms without disturbing anyone. In addition, the soft-start and soft-stop motion protects both the fabric and the track hardware over time.
Aluminum Alloy Track, Cut to Fit
The 5.2-metre track is made from aluminum alloy. This keeps the rail rigid across long spans while remaining light enough for ceiling or wall mounting. Furthermore, the track can be trimmed down to match narrower openings. One kit therefore adapts to different window widths during installation.
Mounting brackets are included for both ceiling-fix and wall-fix installations. Whether your curtain box sits above the window or the rail mounts directly to the slab, the same kit works.
App, Remote, and Voice Control
The Smart Curtain Kit 5.2 Mtrs supports three control methods:
- Wi-Fi app control – Pair the motor with the Tuya Smart app over your home Wi-Fi. You can then open, close, or pause the curtains from anywhere, whether you are at the office in Upper Hill or travelling upcountry.
- RF remote control – The bundled remote handles day-to-day operation without reaching for your phone.
- Voice assistants – Once linked to Tuya, the kit responds to Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant commands.
Moreover, the app supports percentage positioning. You can stop the curtain at 30% or 70% open, not just fully open or fully closed.
Scheduling and Smart Automation
Scheduling is where the kit earns its keep. Set the curtains to open at 6:30 AM so the Nairobi morning light wakes you naturally. Then, schedule them to close at dusk for privacy. While you are away, timed opening and closing makes the house look occupied, which quietly supports your home security setup.
Additionally, the kit works within Tuya scenes. You can link it with smart lights, smart locks, or CCTV triggers so one command adjusts the whole room.
Manual Override Built In
Power interruptions happen. During a KPLC outage, or if the Wi-Fi drops, you can still pull the curtain gently by hand. The motor senses the tug, disengages, and lets the curtain move freely. Once power returns, motorized control resumes without any resetting.
Mains Powered, No Batteries to Replace
The system runs on a standard AC 110–240V supply, so it plugs straight into Kenyan mains power. There are no batteries to monitor or replace. Consequently, running costs stay minimal and the motor is always ready.
Who Is This Best Suited For?
- Homeowners with wide living-room windows or sliding doors – The 5.2 m track span covers openings that standard 3.2 m kits cannot, in one continuous run.
- Apartment owners in Kilimani, Westlands, Lavington, and similar developments – Floor-to-ceiling glazing is common in modern Nairobi apartments, and the cuttable aluminum track adapts to each unit’s exact width.
- Hotels, Airbnbs, and serviced apartments – Quiet motor operation plus app scheduling lets hosts automate privacy and light control across rooms without staff intervention.
- Smart home enthusiasts on the Tuya ecosystem – Native Tuya Smart app support means the kit drops into existing scenes alongside smart locks, lighting, and alarms.
- Elderly users or anyone with limited mobility – Voice control through Alexa or Google Assistant and the RF remote remove the need to reach or pull heavy curtains.
- Offices and boardrooms – Scheduled closing cuts afternoon glare on screens, while percentage positioning fine-tunes natural light during presentations.
