FAQs
Can I use this track for heavy curtains?
No, this track is designed specifically for light to medium-weight fabrics. Using heavy curtains may cause the track to sag or the glide mechanism to fail.
Does it work on bay windows?
Yes, the track features flexible construction designed to accommodate the angles required for bay windows.
Can I trim the track to a shorter length?
Yes, the track can be trimmed using a standard hacksaw to achieve a more precise fit for smaller windows.
What is the maximum extension of the track?
The track is adjustable from 120cm up to 240cm.
Should I apply oil or silicone spray to the track?
No, lubricants are not recommended as they collect dust and may eventually cause the gliders to stick.
Are mounting screws included?
Yes, basic installation hardware is included, but ensure they are appropriate for your specific wall material.
Troubleshooting
Curtains feel stuck or difficult to slide
Check for debris or dust inside the track groove and wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Track feels loose or sags in the middle
Ensure additional support brackets are installed at regular intervals, especially when extended to the maximum 240cm length.
Difficulty mounting to the wall or ceiling
Verify that you are using the correct wall anchors for your specific wall type (e.g., drywall vs. masonry).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, measure your window frame and adjust the track to the desired width before mounting brackets. If the track is too long, it can be trimmed using a hacksaw. Always ensure the track is level to prevent uneven curtain movement. Compatibility is limited to light to medium-weight fabrics; avoid heavy velvet or multi-layered thermal curtains. For maintenance, clean the track periodically with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove dust buildup. Do not use chemical lubricants, as they can attract debris and interfere with the integrated glide system.
