High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/08/2012 -- With dropping sales on the high street and retailers reporting poor sales for the Christmas period, Tracks-Direct are pleased to announce an increase in sales of one of their top brand products: electric curtain tracks.

Electric curtain tracks are often seen as a touch of luxury but their benefits go far beyond labour saving. They increase the level of security protecting a person’s home or property. Tracks-Direct’s electric curtain tracks can be set by timers or controlled by the quantity of sunlight, enabling them to close at night and open in the morning. tThis means that electric curtain tracks can give the impression that someone is present at home even when they are not.

Managing Director of Tracks-Direct, Kris Theophanous, said:

“We have seen a large increase in business across all brands of curtain tracks and poles during 2011. However, our biggest increase by far has been the electric curtain tracks where sales have increased beyond our expectations. We attribute this increase to a combination of competitive pricing, excellent customer service and the fact that people are starting to see the security benefit of electric curtain tracks, as well as the comfort and convenience that they provide”.

Electric cCurtain tTracks are now more affordable and diverse than ever before. The entry level system, Autoglide 5090, is available for windows up to 500cm wide and can pull curtains up to 15kg in weight. The 5090 Autoglide can be controlled by timer, light sensor, switch or infa red remote control. The Autoglide can even be bent to suit bay windows with two corners. For larger windows (up to 10 metres wide), multi angled bay windows or for heavier curtains the Silent Gliss 5200 & 5400 systems make the suitable choice. Both the Silent Gliss 5200 & 5400 Electric Track systems are available with a standard motor or with an integrated radio receiver for use with home entertainment systems and radio remotes. A range of accessories are available to cater for any need, from recess fixings to remote switches and timers.

All these products are manufactured in house at tracks-direct.com and can be supplied made to measure in a time scale to suit.
