Can someone explain what the additional effort (extra costs) would be if I install a central control system for all roller shutters instead of a standard electric roller shutter with a toggle switch? We have eight windows that we want to control centrally.

No idea if this is representative, but for our new build (with a general contractor) a flat surcharge of 110 euros is charged per connected roller shutter. The costs for wiring and the actual control unit are included in this.

So the electric roller shutters are included as standard in the house price?

That depends on the specifications in the building description; in my opinion, electric roller shutters are usually not part of the standard package.

I consider the price mentioned by the previous poster to be unrealistic. Electric roller shutters with a switch cost around €250-300 (approximately $270-$320), and with a central control system, an additional €100-150 (about $110-$160), depending on the supplier; both prices include labor and materials.

Kind regards

Thank you for the information, then the offer is within the expected price range.

Sorry if my answer was a bit unclear. I assumed the question was about the price difference between electric blinds with central control and regular electric blinds. In my case, 110 euros were quoted for that.

The price difference between electric blinds and "manual" blinds was 225 euros per window. So, the 110 euros were an additional cost on top of that, which means my total is roughly within the price range mentioned by the construction expert.
