    The very idea of these frightens me witless but then I have survived a house fire.

    Electrically operated and the cause of the fire is an electrical wiring failure? How are you going to get out - it's not like sweeping aside the curtains, is it?

    Why not ask your local Fire Brigade for advice as it exactly this kind of thing they are clued up about.

    Totally agree. They are a death trap. Even if there are extra fire escape doors at ground and first floor, the fact that they are PVC means that if a fire starts on the outside they will combust and after the glass shatters who knows what that would do to any inhabitants who happen to be in the house.
