FAQs

Can I use this for heavy curtains?

Yes, the aluminium construction is designed to support both light and heavy fabrics effectively.

How do I cut the track to size?

You can cut the aluminium rail easily using a standard hacksaw with a fine-toothed blade.

Is this suitable for wall-to-wall installations?

Absolutely, the track can be measured and trimmed to fit the exact width of any wall-to-wall window space.

Does it come with all necessary mounting hardware?

The track includes the primary rail and necessary gliders; however, please ensure you use appropriate wall anchors for your specific wall type.

Can I paint the track to match my walls?

While the finish is high-quality, painting is not recommended as it may interfere with the Smooth Glide performance of the gliders inside the channel.

Troubleshooting

Curtains feel stuck or drag during movement

Check the track channel for accumulated dust or debris and wipe clean. Ensure the track is mounted perfectly level.

The track is sagging in the middle

Install additional mounting brackets at tighter intervals to better support the weight of the fabric.

Difficult to bend the rail smoothly

Use a steady, gradual pressure rather than sharp force. Bending small increments at a time prevents the metal from kinking.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable aluminium construction resists warping over time
  • Suitable for both straight and complex bay window layouts
  • Easy to trim to custom dimensions using standard tools
  • Smooth movement prevents wear and tear on curtain headings

Cons

  • Requires careful manual bending to ensure uniform curves
  • Not suitable for motorized curtain systems
  • Wall-mounting hardware must be spaced correctly for heavy fabrics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward and requires basic tools including a hacksaw, a drill, and a measuring tape. First, measure your window span precisely and trim the track to size using a fine-tooth hacksaw. If installing in a bay window, bend the track slowly and incrementally to avoid kinks. Secure the brackets at regular intervals—we recommend a spacing of no more than 60cm to prevent sagging under heavy loads. For maintenance, keep the track channel clear of dust and debris; wipe it down with a dry microfiber cloth occasionally to maintain the integrity of the Smooth Glide system. Do not use chemical cleaners or lubricants, as these can attract dust and cause the gliders to stick.
