FAQs

Are these curtains machine washable?

Yes, these curtains are typically machine washable. Please refer to the care label for specific instructions, usually a cold, gentle cycle.

Do these curtains come as a pair or a single panel?

These curtains are usually sold as a single panel. Please check the product packaging or description at the time of purchase to confirm.

How effective are the thermal properties?

The 270gsm thick fabric with a blackout coating significantly helps in reducing heat transfer, keeping rooms warmer in winter and cooler in summer by creating an insulating barrier.

What size curtain rod do I need for the eyelets?

The eyelets are designed to fit most standard curtain rods. For optimal performance, choose a rod with a diameter smaller than the eyelet opening to allow for smooth gliding.

Can I iron these curtains?

Yes, you can iron these curtains on a low-temperature setting. Iron only on the fabric side and avoid direct contact with the blackout coating to prevent damage.

Will these curtains block out 100% of light?

These curtains are designed for excellent light control and blackout functionality. While they will block a significant amount of light, some minimal light leakage might occur around the edges of the window if not installed precisely.

Troubleshooting

Curtains are not fully blocking light.

Ensure the curtain rod extends beyond the window frame on both sides to minimize light leakage around the edges. Also, check that the curtains are fully closed and any gaps between panels (if using multiple) are minimized.

Creases are visible after unpacking.

Most creases will relax over a few days of hanging. For faster removal, gently iron the fabric on a low setting from the front side, avoiding the blackout coating. A fabric steamer can also be used carefully.

Curtains are difficult to slide on the rod.

Ensure the curtain rod is free of obstructions and that its diameter is appropriate for the eyelet size. Applying a silicone-based lubricant spray to the rod (away from the fabric) can also improve smoothness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the curtains from their packaging. Lay them flat for a short period to help reduce any initial creases.
  2. Prepare Rail: Ensure your curtain rail or rod is securely installed and capable of supporting the weight of the curtains. The eyelet design is compatible with most standard curtain rods.
  3. Thread Eyelets: Thread each eyelet onto the curtain rod, ensuring the fabric is evenly distributed. Start from one end and alternate the direction of the folds for a neat drape.
  4. Position: Once threaded, position the curtains evenly across your window space.

Compatibility

  • Curtain Rods: These curtains feature an eyelet design, making them compatible with standard curtain rods/poles. Ensure your rod's diameter is smaller than the eyelet openings for smooth operation.
  • Window Size: Each panel is `46 inches wide x 54 inches drop`. Measure your window carefully to ensure adequate coverage. For wider windows, consider using multiple panels.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and performance of your OHS Boucle Eyelet Blackout Thermal Curtains:

  • Washing: Follow the care label instructions provided. Typically, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Avoid high heat as it can damage the blackout coating.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low-temperature setting on the fabric side only, avoiding direct contact with the blackout coating.
  • Cleaning: For spot cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Maintenance: Regularly dust or vacuum with a soft brush attachment to keep the fabric clean and free of debris.
