A modern residential construction project with a total of 124 high-quality condominiums has been built on the northern edge of Budapest. The development consists of two phases: the first phase was completed five years ago and has been fully occupied since then, while the second complex was successfully completed in 2024.

High-quality features and trustworthy collaboration

The developer Aqualiget placed particular emphasis on high-quality equipment and a reliable technical solution for the roller shutter systems. For this reason, Pico roller shutter drives from Becker-Antriebe GmbH in Sinn, Hesse, equipped with integrated radio technology, were used. The decision in favor of Becker products was made deliberately, as the developer was looking for a reliable partner that guarantees “Made in Germany” quality and convinces with a minimal expected complaint rate. Another important factor was the proximity and support of Becker’s partner Volvex, which acts as the official representative of Becker in Hungary. The close collaboration with Volvex greatly facilitated project execution and ensured competent on-site support. The durable drives fully meet all requirements and thus contribute significantly to the high level of satisfaction among the owners.

Drives with numerous highlights

The installed roller shutter drives impress with a wide range of innovative features that provide maximum convenience for both users and installers. Thanks to the integrated CentronicPlus radio receiver, they allow particularly flexible control via hand-held transmitters. One of the outstanding features is the ability to install software updates wirelessly, ensuring the systems remain up to date at all times. A gentle stop function during closing reliably protects the application, while the integrated mesh technology ensures stable and efficient networking of all devices. In addition, they offer a memory function that allows automatic commands to be conveniently programmed via special transmitters. Manufactured in Germany, these drives stand for the highest quality, reliability, and durability.

For even greater convenience, the drives can be combined with sun, wind, and rain sensors. Sensitive obstacle detection and freeze protection ensure safe operation and protect both the roller shutter and its surroundings. An intelligent protection mechanism for insect screens is also integrated to prevent damage when insect screen doors are left open. Installers benefit from automatic limit position detection and intelligent installation management, which enables fast and straightforward commissioning. The automatic curtain length compensation reliably detects and corrects any changes in curtain length.

A partnership you can count on

The collaboration between the investor Aqualiget and Becker’s Hungarian partner Volvex proved to be highly cooperative and effective. From the very beginning, all relevant project participants – particularly the window and roller shutter manufacturer as well as the electrical installer – were closely involved in the planning and implementation. Regular meetings facilitated smooth information exchange and enabled a coordinated approach throughout all project phases.

Ready for the future

Another forward-looking element is the planned retrofitting of the existing roller shutter systems with the smart roller shutter and sun protection control unit CentralControl CC41. This modernization will enable residents to centrally and conveniently control their roller shutters via smartphone or tablet in the future and will support integration into smart home environments. It will also allow operation from remote locations. For example, if the sun is too strong, the shutters can be lowered while away to prevent the apartment from overheating. Even when on vacation, residents can keep an eye on their home and respond to changes in weather conditions.

Overall, the project impressively demonstrates how outstanding results can be achieved through the combination of high-quality technology, reliable partnerships, and meticulous project coordination. With this project, Becker once again reaffirms its commitment to being recognized internationally as a premium provider of innovative drive solutions in the field of sun protection and roller shutter automation.
