There are two main ways to hang curtains on tracks or on poles. For heavy curtains
use a substantial pole and fixings.
Metal corded tracks - By far the best and most versatile type
of track available. Curtains will always look more professional hanging from
this type of track. Cording prevents unnecessary handling of the curtains and
easily adjusted to pull on the left or right. They are designed with over lapping
centre carriers and return brackets both avoid light escaping down outside and
leading edges plus helps draught exclusion. Pelmet/valance boards can be added
easily. We can also offer metal track that can be custom bent for bay windows.
Poles - Curtain poles are decorative as well as functional.
The final flourish for a pole is a finial on the end. The choice of poles has
increased dramatically, ranging from the traditional wood, iron and brass to
the contemporary satin nickel or stainless steel finishes. We have a fantastic
selection!
Wooden poles tend to come in 25mm (one inch), 35mm (one and a half inch) 50mm
(two inch) and 63mm (two and a half inch). They can be stained, painted or gilded.
Finials range from just simple ball ends to being elaborately carved.
Metal poles usually come in 19mm (three quarter inch) and 32mm (one and a quarter
inch) again with a range of finishes and finials.
