Product Information
Full details
This Double Curtain Ceiling Rail Track in Brown is designed for homeowners looking for a practical and stylish solution to hang multiple layers of curtains. Its key benefit is providing a dual-layer hanging system, ideal for layering sheers with heavier drapes, offering enhanced privacy, light control, and insulation. A minor consideration is that hooks or clips are sold separately, requiring an additional purchase to complete the installation.

This product is specifically designed for ceiling mounting. Wall mounting is not recommended.
What is the rail made of?
The rail is made of durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) material.
How wide is the rail?

What colour is the curtain rail?
The curtain rail is brown.
How should I clean the curtain rail?

Troubleshooting
Curtains are difficult to slide.
Ensure that the curtain hooks or gliders are not catching on the track. Check for any debris inside the track and clean if necessary. Verify that the track is mounted straight and not sagging.
Track feels unstable after installation.
Re-check all ceiling fixings to ensure they are tightened securely. Ensure that the appropriate type of screws and wall plugs for your ceiling material have been used.
The track makes noise when curtains move.
This can sometimes occur with standard gliders. Consider using roller gliders designed for quieter operation. Ensure the curtains are not too heavy for the track.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This track is designed for ceiling mounting. Ensure the ceiling surface is suitable for drilling and securely affixing the track using appropriate fixings (not included). The included clips will help to secure the rail itself. Measure your window and cut the track to size if necessary before mounting.
Compatibility: The 68mm rail width is compatible with most standard curtain hooks and gliders. It is intended for use with two layers of curtains. Ensure the hooks or gliders you choose are suitable for a PVC track.
Care: Clean the track with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the PVC material. Periodically check fixings to ensure the track remains securely attached to the ceiling.
