Silent Gliss 5100TC Autoglide Electric Curtain Track – Total Control Operation

The Silent Gliss 5100TC Autoglide Electric Curtain Track represents the pinnacle of the Silent Gliss 5100 range, offering complete flexibility and total control over your curtains through multiple operating methods in one sophisticated system.

Combining wireless wall switch control, programmable timer functionality, and handheld radio remote operation, the 5100TC is designed for homeowners seeking maximum convenience, luxury, and practicality from their motorised curtain system.

Suitable for light to medium weight curtains up to 25kg, the Silent Gliss 5100TC delivers exceptionally smooth and quiet operation using a high-quality belt-driven motor system. The integrated motor drives an internal toothed belt within the track, ensuring reliable performance and long-term durability.

The included timer functionality allows curtains to open and close automatically at programmed times throughout the day, making the system an excellent addition to home security by creating the appearance that someone is home while the property is empty.

For everyday operation, the supplied handheld radio remote allows curtains to be opened and closed effortlessly from anywhere in the room, while the wireless wall switch provides a convenient fixed control point.

The integrated radio receiver is discreetly built directly into the motor, eliminating the need for visible external sensors or relay units and helping maintain a clean, streamlined appearance.

Like all systems within the Silent Gliss 5100 Autoglide collection, the 5100TC includes several advanced operating features. The “touch and go” function automatically activates the motor if the curtains are gently pulled by hand, while the manual override facility allows the curtains to still be operated safely during a power failure.

The soft start and soft close technology ensures the curtains decelerate smoothly during operation, reducing wear on both the track and curtain fabric while enhancing the premium feel of the system.

Professionally assembled to your exact measurements, the Silent Gliss 5100TC can also be expertly bent by our trained engineers using specialist bending equipment and excellent craftsmanship to suit bay windows and curved installations.

Suitable for both ceiling fixing and wall fixing, the system can also be used with wave curtain headings to create a contemporary flowing curtain appearance.

The 5100TC forms part of the wider Silent Gliss 5100 Autoglide range, alongside the 5100B Switch Operation, 5100R Radio Remote Operation, and 5100T Timer Operation systems.
