Configure & PriceElectric curtain tracks explained
An electric curtain track lets you open and close your curtains at the touch of a button — or on a timer, so they move with the sunrise. Whether you call them electric, motorised, or automatic curtain tracks, the principle is the same: a quiet motor does the work for you. All three systems below are made by Silent Gliss, the Swiss manufacturer trusted by five-star hotels and interior designers worldwide. We supply them at up to 35% below RRP with free UK mainland delivery.
The Autoglide 5100 is by far the most popular choice for homes: it plugs into a standard socket, needs no electrician, and handles curtains up to 25 kg on a track up to 6 metres long. For heavier or commercial curtains, the Silent Gliss 5600 supports up to 65 kg across spans of 25 metres — ideal for large windows, stage curtains, or room dividers. Prefer a visible pole rather than a concealed track? The Metropole is the only electric curtain pole on the market, available in 30 mm or 50 mm diameter with a choice of decorative finials.
