Re: Silent Gliss curtain tracks



Hi,

I've been down this road regarding curtain motors very recently.  Silent
Gliss are just too expensive, although they are bringing out a new, cheaper
model in the near future - but this will still be around £400.
Swish are still available - I bought some recently but I'm not too
impressed
with them for the money.
I eventually went for the Butler Add-a-Motor (approx £50).  With a decent
track they should be OK - and controlling them from HV shouldn't be too
difficult.

Simon
