Standard electric tracks are great for average home windows. But what about floor-to-ceiling glass walls, wide patio doors, or heavy theater-grade blackout curtains? For these challenges, you need a system built with more muscle: a heavy-duty electric track.

Signs You Need a Heavy-Duty System:

  • Your window or door span is wider than 4 meters (13 feet).

  • You are hanging multiple layers of fabric (e.g., a sheer and a blackout drape).

  • Your curtains are made from thick, dense materials like velvet or thermally lined fabric.

  • The application is for a commercial space like a hotel, theater, or conference room.

Features of a Heavy-Duty Track:

  • Reinforced Aluminum Construction: Thicker, stronger aluminum profiles that resist sagging on long spans.

  • High-Torque Industrial Motor: A more powerful motor ensures smooth starts and stops, even under heavy loads.

  • Industrial-Grade Gliders: Durable gliders designed to handle the increased weight and friction.

  • Multiple Drive Belts: On very long tracks, multiple motors or a central drive with a toothed belt may be used for consistent power.

Don't let a standard system struggle and fail. Our heavy-duty electric tracks are engineered for the most demanding applications. Contact our technical team with your project specifications for a custom solution and quote.
