FAQs

What is a thermal blackout lining?

A thermal blackout lining is a layer added to the back of the curtain. It helps to block out external light effectively, creating a darker room, and also provides insulation to help retain heat within the room.

How do I measure for eyelet curtains?

Measure the length from the top of your curtain pole to where you want the curtain to finish. For width, measure the width of your curtain pole. Eyelet curtains are typically sold as single panels, so ensure you purchase enough panels to cover the full width of your pole, allowing for pleating when drawn.

Can I machine wash these curtains?

No, these curtains are dry clean only. Washing them in a machine may damage the fabric and the thermal blackout lining.

Are the matching cushion covers included?

No, the matching cushion covers are available to purchase separately. They are not included with the curtains.

What does 'W' and 'L' mean in the size descriptions?

'W' refers to the width of the curtain panel, and 'L' refers to the length (drop) of the curtain panel.

Can these curtains be used in a bathroom or kitchen?

While durable, the 100% polyester fabric and dry-clean-only instruction make them best suited for living rooms, bedrooms, or studies rather than high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens.

What colors are available?

The Gleneagles range is available in various colorways, including rich green and stylish silver blue, often featuring a tartan check pattern.

Troubleshooting

Curtains are creased upon arrival.

Gently iron on a cool setting on the reverse side, or use a steamer. For best results, consider professional dry cleaning which often includes steaming.

Eyelets feel stiff on the curtain pole.

Ensure the curtain pole is smooth and free of debris. If the pole is particularly thick, consider using a slightly smaller diameter pole or curtain rings.

Light leakage around the edges.

This is normal for eyelet curtains. For maximum darkness, consider using tie-backs to pull curtains fully closed and ensure they are adequately sized for the window, overlapping the frame.

Fabric appears faded after a short period.

While durable, prolonged direct sunlight can fade any fabric over time. Consider using the curtains to block direct sun during peak hours or supplement with blinds.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhances room ambiance with a stylish, on-trend tartan pattern.
  • Effective light blocking for improved sleep or media viewing.
  • Provides thermal insulation, helping to keep rooms warmer in winter.
  • Easy to install due to the eyelet header design.
  • Complements both classic and modern interior design schemes.
  • Coordinating cushion covers are available for a unified look.

Cons

  • Requires dry cleaning only, which can be more costly and less convenient.
  • The blackout lining may not be 100% effective in very bright conditions or around the edges.
  • Eyelet curtains can sometimes be noisier when opening and closing compared to other header types.
  • Available in limited color options (black and green are prominent, silver blue also mentioned).
  • Sold as single panels, so multiple purchases may be needed to cover a window.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These curtains feature an eyelet header, designed for easy installation. Ensure you have a sturdy curtain pole that can accommodate the diameter of the eyelets. Simply thread the eyelets directly onto the pole. It is recommended to use curtain rings if your pole has finials or if you wish to have extra smooth gliding.

Compatibility:

Compatible with standard curtain poles. The eyelets are designed to fit most common pole diameters. Available in various sizes to suit different window dimensions. Matching cushion options are available separately to coordinate with your curtain choice.

Care Instructions:

Due to the woven fabric and thermal blackout lining, these curtains are recommended for dry clean only. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this may damage the fabric and lining, affecting their appearance and performance.
