FAQs

Can this track be used for ceiling mounting?

Yes, the New Edge Blinds curtain track is designed to be compatible with both wall and ceiling mounting applications.

What tools are needed to cut or bend the track?

For cutting, a fine-tooth saw is recommended. For bending, the track can typically be shaped by hand; however, it's advisable to support it to avoid unintentional kinks or damage.

How much weight can this track support?

The track is designed to handle light to heavy fabrics. For very heavy drapes, ensure adequate support with evenly spaced mounting brackets.

Is the black finish durable?

The aluminium construction with a classic black finish is designed for durability. Regular dusting with a soft cloth will maintain its appearance. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Do I need to purchase separate curtain hooks or gliders?

This product is the curtain track itself. You will need to source compatible curtain hooks or gliders, and mounting hardware (screws, wall plugs) separately, based on your installation requirements.

What is the benefit of the Smooth Glide technology?

Smooth Glide technology ensures that your curtains open and close effortlessly, without any snags or catches, providing a user-friendly experience.

Troubleshooting

Curtains do not glide smoothly.

Ensure the track is straight and free from kinks. Check that curtain runners are not damaged or obstructed. Clean the track surface for any debris.

Track is sagging in the middle.

Add additional mounting brackets to provide more support, especially if using heavy curtains. Ensure brackets are spaced evenly.

Track makes noise when curtains are moved.

Check for any obstructions or rough patches on the track. Lubricate the runners with a small amount of silicone spray, ensuring it does not contact the curtain fabric.

End caps do not fit securely.

Ensure the ends of the track are cut cleanly. Gently adjust the end cap for a snug fit, or use a small amount of adhesive if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  4. Mark the wall or ceiling for the mounting brackets, ensuring even spacing.
  5. Install the mounting brackets according to the manufacturer's instructions (screws and wall plugs typically not included).

Care:

  • Clean the track periodically with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust.

  • Ensure runners move freely; lubricate sparingly with a silicone-based spray if needed, being careful not to get it on the fabric.
