Product Details

The Arklyfe 87E Smart Curtain Motor – Mains-Powered Modular Kit is a constant-power smart curtain motor and DIY-splicing track kit in one package, built for Australian renovators and tradies who need to fit a smart-curtain track to a non-standard window width without ordering custom hardware. The kit ships with a full track that can be assembled in around three minutes and spliced to length on-site, so a single SKU covers bay windows, sliding-door reveals and unusual openings that a fixed-length pre-built track would not. Shipped from Melbourne for AU 240V power.

The constant-power design matters in day-to-day use. Mains power means no battery to recharge, no torque drop-off as the battery ages, and no risk of the curtain stalling halfway closed on the third year of ownership, the most common failure mode of battery-powered curtain motors. For curtains operated multiple times a day, especially on heavier blockout fabrics, mains-powered is the longer-term choice. The motor is positioned for whole-house specifications where every bedroom, living room and study uses the same hardware family.

The kit suits homes, offices and small-commercial smart-home projects equally well, the DIY track splicing lets one electrician or installer carry one SKU across a multi-room job and cut to length rather than back-ordering different widths. Day-to-day operation is the same as any smart curtain motor: app, remote and scene-based control deliver the automated curtain experience without the noise and slowdowns that older spring-loaded systems produce. For renovators wiring new pelmets during a build, the 87E mains-powered kit is the practical baseline.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What control methods does the motor support?

It supports RF433 remote control, smart control (both domestic and international), remote control, app control, voice control, as well as timing and percentage-based control.

The 87 Splicing Kit does not respond to open or close commands in the app, but it works with the remote. Why is that?

Have you set the travel distance to more than 1 meter? For the Matter version, curtain motors with a travel distance of less than 1 meter cannot be controlled via the app.

How is the 87E Mains-Powered kit powered, and how heavy a curtain can it drive?

It runs on AC 100–240V mains power with no batteries to recharge, and drives curtain loads up to 70 kg on a 4-metre track — suited to heavier drapes in new builds and renovations.
