Wave Curtain Tracks & Rods
For a Wave curtain to work properly it needs to be hung on a track or rod made specifically for it. The following styles of tracks and rods are all suitable for Wave curtains and the choice between them is usually made based on how you want them to look and where you want them to be fitted.

Step 5. Download this guide then measure for your tracks/rods.
Specify the track/rod width required excluding any finials for rods (but make sure you allow room for these - the length of each finial is given in Step 3 above).
Step 6. Does your track/rod need to be bent around one or more angles or corners - eg a bay window?
If yes, for the purposes of a quote, you can simply specify how many bends per track/rod. If you accept the quote a diagram will be required for each bent track/rod (you can use the bend diagrams on page 3 of the measuring guide to help with this).
If you would like to supply a diagram of the bend/s you can upload it when you request a quote below.
Step 7. If you chose one of the cord drawn tracks (CKS or CKS) specify which side you want the pull cord. If you accept a quote for cord drawn tracks, extra information will be requested about the configuration of the curtains.
Please note, cord drawn tracks are not recommended for heavy curtains or bent tracks & rods. As an alternative to cords, consider using curtain wands - see note at end of this page.
Step 8. Are your tracks/rods to be fitted on the wall or ceiling?
Step 9. Save your completed Quote Request Form and attach it or use it as a reference when you request a quote below.
