FAQs

Are these curtains truly blackout?

Yes, they block out up to 95% of light, providing a significant darkening effect. However, some light may still pass through depending on the colour and installation.

Can I use these curtains in any room?

Yes, they can be used in bedrooms, living rooms, home offices, or any room where you want to control light, noise, and privacy.

How do I measure for the right size?

Measure the width of your window and add extra for overlap on each side. Measure the length from the top of the rod to where you want the curtains to end.

How do I clean these curtains?

They are machine washable. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and either line dry or tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a low setting if needed.

Do these curtains help with energy savings?

Yes, the triple weave technology helps insulate your room, keeping it warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, which can lead to energy savings.

What kind of curtain rod do I need?

They are designed with ring tops to easily slide onto a standard curtain rod or pole.

What colors are available?

Available colours include cream, beige, charcoal, blue, silver, navy, and pink.

Are these curtains suitable for reducing noise?

Yes, the thick fabric and triple weave construction help to reduce noise levels in your room.

Troubleshooting

Curtains are not blocking out enough light.

Ensure curtains are properly installed and overlap the window frame. Also, consider the colour of the curtains, as lighter colours may allow more light through.

Curtains are too long or too short.

Check the measurements before purchasing. Consider hemming if the curtains are too long or using curtain clips to adjust the length.

Curtains are creased after washing.

Iron the curtains on a low setting, following the care instructions.

Rings are difficult to slide on the rod.

Ensure the curtain rod is the correct size for the rings. Use a lubricant specifically designed for curtain rods, if necessary.
