Hello everyone,
I have been thinking about this topic for some time now, and I’m not sure how to prioritize everything since many great options are available, but they also come with corresponding costs.
The house will definitely have an electric garage door and electric roller shutters, which is not unusual in itself. Soundproofing and burglary protection are very important to us due to the location of our plot (edge location directly adjacent to a railway track).
For the windows, we will choose a higher frame depth model (82mm (3.2 inches)) for an additional cost, with RC2-N security class throughout, as well as aluminum roller shutters. We are also considering a film system designed to prevent easy shattering of the panes. In our window contract quotation, there is an additional item listed: “High-control magnetic contact for electrical monitoring.” Can anyone explain what this means? I have heard there are systems that automatically lock everything or close the shutters in case of vibrations or glass breakage.
Roller shutters can be time-controlled, but I find it inconvenient to go to each window switch or program each one individually. Is it possible to install a central switch that allows programming or raising/lowering all the roller shutters on the ground floor with a single action?
Additionally, we have decided on a mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery. Here, too, I wonder what control options make sense. Would one control panel per floor be advisable?
Lastly, there is the front door, specifically the “automatic/electronic locks.” Could someone explain the added costs and benefits? Unfortunately, this option was not included in our offer.
Thanks and best regards

Hmm, with Brötje it seems to be a proprietary development, not like other manufacturers who build one system and five sell the same unit...maybe that's why the higher price... The question is: What benefit does the customer get from this in this case?
