FAQs

Are these curtains 100% blackout?

The Galaxy Dim Out Curtains are designed to effectively *reduce* incoming light, creating a significantly darker room. While they are very effective, they are classified as 'dim-out' rather than 'blackout', meaning a small amount of light may still filter through or around the edges.

Can I machine wash these curtains?

No, these curtains are professional dry clean only. Machine washing or hand washing is not recommended as it may damage the fabric and thermal properties.

What type of curtain fittings do I need?

Thanks to their 3-inch pencil pleat header, these curtains are versatile and can be hung on either a standard curtain pole (using curtain rings with eyelets) or a curtain track (using appropriate gliders/hooks).

Do these curtains help with insulation?

Yes, these curtains feature thermal layering designed to help prevent heat loss, contributing to a warmer room in cooler months and potentially helping with energy efficiency.

How do I remove wrinkles?

You can carefully iron the curtains on a low setting, preferably on the reverse side. Avoid high heat to prevent damage to the polyester fabric.

Are other colours available?

Yes, while this guide is for the Green variant, the Galaxy Dim Out Pencil Pleat Curtains are available in other colours, including Blue, Yellow, Red, and Silver, within the same product line.

Troubleshooting

Curtains not blocking enough light.

Ensure the curtains are correctly sized for your window and extend adequately past the frame. Check that the pencil pleats are evenly gathered, and the curtains fully close without gaps. Consider adding a blackout lining if complete blackout is required (these are dim-out curtains).

Curtains appear wrinkled after unpacking.

Carefully iron the curtains on a low setting, preferably from the reverse side. A garment steamer can also be used with caution, keeping it at a safe distance from the fabric.

Fabric looks dirty or has stains.

As these curtains require professional dry cleaning, do not attempt to spot clean or wash them at home. Consult a professional dry cleaner, informing them of the fabric composition (100% Polyester).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Measure: Before hanging, ensure your curtain pole or track is securely installed and extends adequately beyond your window frame for optimal coverage.
  2. Attach Hooks: Insert curtain hooks (not included) into the pencil pleats at regular intervals. The 3-inch tape allows for adjustment to achieve your desired gather.
  3. Hang: Carefully attach the hooked curtains to your chosen curtain pole rings or track runners.
  4. Adjust Gather: Gently pull the cords at the back of the pencil pleat header to create an even gather across the width of your window, then tie off the cords securely. Distribute the fabric evenly for the best dim-out effect and appearance.

Compatibility

These curtains feature a 3-inch pencil pleat header, making them compatible with:

  • Standard curtain poles (when used with curtain rings that have eyelets)
  • Curtain tracks (when used with appropriate gliders/hooks)

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and performance of your curtains:

  • Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning only. Do NOT machine wash, hand wash, or wet clean at home, as this can damage the fabric and thermal lining.
  • Ironing: If needed, iron on a low setting from the reverse side. Use a protective cloth if ironing on the face side to prevent scorching or marking.
  • Drying: Do NOT tumble dry. Allow curtains to air dry naturally after professional cleaning.
  • Bleaching: Do NOT use bleach or any harsh chemicals.
  • Regular Dusting: Periodically vacuum the curtains with an upholstery attachment or gently shake them outdoors to remove dust and maintain freshness.
