Handheld remotes

Everyday control, in your hand

Some people love an app; plenty just want a button anyone can pick up and use. That’s what our handheld remotes do for your motorised Coverlight blinds. The only thing to decide is how many blinds you’d like to control on their own — that’s what the channels are for.

How many channels do you need?

Think of a channel as a button that talks to one blind — or to a set of blinds you’ve grouped together. The more channels, the more blinds you can drive on their own.

A quick way to choose

1

Counting one blind

Just the one motorised blind? A single-channel remote is all it takes — nothing to over-think.

6

A handful around the house

A few blinds spread across a couple of rooms? Six channels lets you run each room, or group a room to move as one.

16

Kitting out the whole place

Blinds going in everywhere? Sixteen channels gives every room its own button, with a whole-home one to spare.

You’re free to mix it up — one blind per button, or a group of blinds sharing a button so they move together. Set it up however your home runs.

More than one

Why one is rarely the last

There’s no limit to how many remotes a home can have — and a spare in the right place saves a lot of walking.

Where you actually use them

Keep a remote in the room, not down the hall. A bedside one beats fumbling for the blinds in the dark.

One for each level

A remote upstairs and one down means the blinds you want are always a press away — not a floor away.

A backup in the drawer

A cheap single-channel remote is a handy just-in-case for when the main one decides to wander off.

Setup

Pairing & programming

Setting a remote up takes a few minutes — pair it to a blind, then set the open and close limits. Our step-by-step guides walk you through both, including grouping blinds onto a channel.

Common questions

Remote control FAQs

Do I need a remote, or can I use the app?
Every motorised Coverlight blind is designed to work with a handheld remote — it’s the simplest, most reliable way for the whole family to operate the blinds, with no app or Wi-Fi required. The Smart Home Hub is an optional add-on if you also want app and voice control.
What’s the difference between 1, 6 and 16 channels?
Channels are how many blinds (or groups of blinds) you can control separately from the one remote. One channel suits a single blind; six suits a few rooms; sixteen is for larger homes where you want a channel per space plus a whole-home group.
Can one channel control several blinds?
Yes. You can pair one blind to one channel, or group multiple blinds onto a single channel so they open and close together — handy for a multi-window room.
Which remote pairs with my blind?
All three pair with the Coverlight DIY motorised blind. Choose the channel count to match your layout; pairing is covered in the install guide.
Can I add extra remotes later?
Yes, any time. A second remote for the bedside, one for each level of the house, or a spare tucked in a drawer — add as many as you like, whenever you like.
How do I change the remote’s battery?
Your remote runs on a long-life 3V coin-cell battery that lasts a long time in everyday use. When the buttons stop responding, it’s a quick swap: slide off the back cover, take out the old cell — its size is printed on the face (commonly a CR2450 or CR2032) — and fit a matching fresh one the same way around, positive (+) side up, then test a button. If you’re not sure, get in touch and we’ll confirm the size for you.
