Wave or SFold

Although we have been doing wave curtains for some time now they are still considered relatively new to the market.

Although we have been doing wave curtains for some time now they are still considered relatively new to the market. The simple yet effective wave is an alternative to the more traditional pleated style. The wave passes front and back of the track and the spacing is permanent, this is achieved by the actual track offering a more modern look and can be done with many different styles of track. We often do this style ceiling to floor and wall to wall especially over small side by side windows which gives you better coverage and clear window when drawing open.

Inverted Pleating

Also known as New York Pleating or reverse Pleat creates a simple, modern look which also requires less fabric than some other styles.

Plain fabrics or those with textured weaves are complemented best by this treatment. Keeping in mind that all fabrics have different characteristics there for all hang a little different.

This treatment gives drapes an informal feel, ideal for bedrooms. This style is seen at its best with light fabrics and is especially suitable for sheer or voile curtains. Tab tops are not the easiest drapes to pull across the rod so a fixed option is usually recommended.

Rod Pocket

a simple pocket at the top is used mainly for nets and light weight fabrics that are in the fixed position not to be opened. A pocket sewn across the top is left open at the ends so a curtain rod can be threaded through the channel and then hung on hooks or brackets. The pockets can be sewn at any size to accommodate what ever size rod you have.

Our pelmets are slightly padded fabric covered and with matching piping or a feature of your choosing. Pelmets can be straight for the streamline affect or shaped on the bottom edge to suit your style. Padded pelmets can be made in many shapes and sizes; contrast piping can be added to co-ordinate with blinds or curtains.

Tips and Recommendations

We usually recommend that the drapes break the floor by 10-20mm to allow for fabric movement. Fabrics have quite a bit of give in the summer months and contract in the winter so you need to find that happy medium as there is nothing worse than curtains that are too long or too short.

Longer drapes can make the window and room look bigger, and provide better insulation. We always recommend full length drapes (unless a piece of furniture is to be placed under the window).

Decorative Tracks/rods should be mounted at least 100mm above the architrave. If the ceiling is very high, you may need to place the track even higher so it looks more pleasing to the eye.

All our curtains include returns unless going wall to wall, (or unless specified by the client) this is not only for the look of the curtain but also for the function on keeping the light out.

Our recommendation for curtain heading styles is for a fixed pleat or wave rather than the gathered style, they are much easier to rehang after laundering, and there are no messy cords to deal with. All our Track cords will be set at 1600 off the floor to comply with current cord regulations. Warning tags are fitted to all curtains and blinds with cords or chains and are not to be removed under any circumstances.
