In brief: For an electric curtain you need a curtain motor with a suitable track and a power connection nearby. The motor pulls the gliders via a belt in the track. Curtain weight, track length and whether the track is straight or curved are decisive.
What you need
- Motor-compatible curtain track (straight or curved)
- Curtain motor with sufficient pulling force
- Socket or 100–240 V connection near the track
- Bedienung: Handsender, App, Sprache oder Taster

Frequently asked questions
Can I keep using my old curtain track?
Only if it is designed for motors. Usually a motor-compatible track with a belt is installed.
What is touch-to-go?
The motor starts when you gently pull the curtain – handy without a remote control.
