Silent Gliss Autoglide 5100 Electric Curtain Tracks

As well as the control options listed below, each model has a new feature called "Touch and Go", where a small tug on the fabric of the curtain will start the motor to fully open or close your curtains.

Autoglide B

The 5100B comes with a wireless switch to open and close your curtains, and features a wall-mountable base. The switch can be removed from the base and used as a remote, then returned to the wall-mount for safe keeping. The wall mount is usually put next to your main light switch or favourite chair, so you always know where the controller is.

Autoglide R

The 5100R also comes with the wall-mountable switch, as well as a dedicated wireless remote, for keeping in easy reach or on the coffee table. The remote is slightly larger than the wall switch to make it easier to hold in your hand.

Autoglide T

The 5100T comes with the wall switch and with a wireless, programmable timer unit.

You can set your curtains to open and close automatically without you having to take any action or even be in the house. This makes the timer perfect for security when you're away.

Autoglide TC

The 5100TC comes with all control options, so you get the wireless wall switch, the remote control and the timer unit.

Controlling Multiple Tracks

Each supplied controller controls a single "channel".

If you plan on having multiple electric curtain tracks, you can obviously control them independently with their own controllers. Each track and remote will be set to different channels so they don’t interfere with each other.

If you have more than one electric curtain track and set them all to the same channel, a single channel controller will control all of the curtain tracks, but they will operate all at the same time, rather than being able to operate them independently.

If you want to be able to control multiple curtain tracks independently with one single controller, take a look at our Silent Gliss 10948 multi-channel remote. You would leave each curtain track set to its own distinct channel, and the multi-channel controller will operate each channel separately.

Please note - curtain hanging

Please note that curtains should be hung so the top of the curtains are below the profile of the track. If the tops of the curtains protrude up and cover the track, it may impede the motor and affect the operation of the system and possibly affect the warranty.

If you have a shaped window, such as a bay window, the track can be bent for you during manufacture.

The 5100 can be bent up to two times, or have one long, continual curve. This is suitable for most 3-pane bay windows. If more bends are required, either consider multiple tracks, or take a look at the Silent Gliss 5600 Electric Curtain Track which can be bent as many times as required.

Simply select the "bending" option when designing your track. We will be in touch to ask you to take a few specific measurements in order to make sure your track fits perfectly.

Wave Curtains

You can now order Silent Gliss Wave Curtains made to perfectly fit your Autoglide track.

Wave technology makes your curtains always hang in a professional-looking, uniform wave. It's the secret of high-end installations and is now available for your home.

To order curtains, select the option "Yes, I'd like curtains too", and all the configurable options will appear for you to select.

You are guided through the process step-by-step, and if there's anything you are unsure about, feel free to get in touch.

Here's a link to our full Silent Gliss Wave guide.

Silent Gliss Fabrics

In our track designer, you have the option to purchase high quality Silent Gliss curtains along with your electric curtain track.

The fabrics we offer for curtains are Silent Gliss' own, specifically designed and refined for this application.

We currently offer fabrics from their two most popular groups, Colorama 1 and Colorama 2, which have both vivid and more toned-down colours to suit any application.

The fabrics are the same colours in both groups, but:

• Colorama 1 is slightly thinner and therefore more transparent than Colorama 2.
• Colorama 2 is thicker and lets less light through.

Here are a few examples of Colorama 1 vs Colorama 2 fabrics to show the difference in transparency, but don't forget these are without any form of curtain lining, which stops more light and adds privacy.

Please note - curtain hanging

Please note that curtains should be hung so the top of the curtains are below the profile of the track. If the tops of the curtains protrude up and cover the track, it may impede the motor and affect the operation of the system and possibly affect the warranty.
