Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material are the Alan Symonds Velvet Blackout Curtains made of?

They are made from 100% high-quality polyester with a premium velvet finish and incorporate triple weave black yarns for blackout functionality.

How do I wash these curtains?

These curtains are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water. They should be line-dried and can be lightly ironed on a low heat setting if needed.

Do these curtains completely block out light?

Yes, the triple weave black yarn technology is designed for effective light blocking, creating a dark environment. Minor light leakage may occur at the edges depending on installation.

Are these curtains energy efficient?

Yes, the dense velvet and triple weave construction provide thermal insulation, helping to keep rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter, which can contribute to energy savings.

What does 'Ring Top' mean for installation?

Ring Top means the curtains come with pre-attached rings that easily slide onto a curtain rod, making installation and operation simple and smooth.

Are they sold individually or as a pair?

The product information states they are sold as pairs.

What are the available colors?

While the specific product is black, Alan Symonds offers these curtains in a variety of colors including Silver, Red, and Blue, as indicated by the variant siblings.

Troubleshooting

Curtains are creased upon arrival

Hang the curtains and allow them to relax for a few days, or use a steam iron on a low setting (refer to care instructions).

Light is still visible through the curtains

Ensure the curtains are fully extended and covering the entire window area. Check if the fabric weave has any minor gaps; this is inherent to fabric blackout solutions.

Curtains feel heavy on the rod

Confirm that the curtain rod is securely mounted and rated for the weight of the curtains. Consider using a heavier-duty rod if necessary.

Color fades over time

Avoid direct, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight. Line dry away from direct sun.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
