Light Weight Curtain Track

A lightweight curtain track is the thinnest and lightest of our curtain track options. Made from aluminium and consisting of a slim profile, this track is ideal for handling net curtains or lighter or smaller curtains that need a more discreate track. The light nature of these curtain tracks makes it ideal for caravans and boats, where the windows are typically smaller than average, and weight needs to be kept to a minimum. Ideal for curtains with a total weight of less than 5kg.

This product is available up to a maximum width of 12m. Please note that lengths over 4.5m (approx) require an inline joiner connecting the tracks. This is automatically included; you do not need to purchase it separately.

Light Weight Curtain Track Technical Details

The Light Weight Curtain Track is a hand-drawn aluminum curtain track which is white powder-coated. It holds gliders which are supplied at 16 per metre.

The track is 21mm high from the top of the track to the glider, and so deduct this measurement when working out the drop for your curtains.

The track and the bracket combined protrudes 36mm from the surface it is fixed to.

Installing a Lightweight Curtain Track

With the Lightweight Hand Drawn curtain track has the option to be top fixed or face fixed. To top fix the track means to attach it to the ceiling or top of the recess, whereas a face fix means to attach the track to the wall. 

Step 1

Put the brackets on to the track, spaced 400mm apart

Measuring Curtain Tracks

We’ve made it super easy – just supply us with the width that you wish the track to be and enter it into our website. There are no brackets on the end of our track so we do not need to make any deductions to the track to make it fit. The width measurement you supply is the width that the track will be made to.

We recommend using a metal tape measure to ensure accuracy. For cord drawn tracks please measure the distance from the floor up to where the track will be fitted (this is called the Install Height) so that we are able to ensure the cord will be made to the correct length and in keeping with child safety regulations whilst still be in reach for adults.

Delivery

This curtain track is available for Next Day Delivery. Order before 11am to have it dispatched the same day to be with you the very next working day. All you have to do is select ‘Next Day Delivery’ when you checkout and we’ll take care of the rest.

If you order after 11am, we’ll still process your order as a priority and dispatch it the next working day to be with you the following working day, but we can’t guarantee that it will be with you the day after you place your order, unless we discover light-speed or time travel in the meantime!

Next Day Delivery only applies to selected products and isn’t applicable to other non-qualifying blinds ordered at the same time. If you’re located within the Channel Islands or the Scottish Highlands we’ll still dispatch in super quick time but the couriers may take a little longer to get to you, so please allow 48 or 72 hours for delivery.

Right-Size Guarantee

Sometimes you just need some peace of mind when you come to place an order for your blinds. With DotcomBlind’s Right-Size Guarantee you can have just that. With our Right-Size Guarantee we will replace one blind or curtain or curtain track with the correct size if you get the measurements wrong when you order. Please note, the Right Size Guarantee excludes Cassette Blinds.

Why do I need this Insurance?

We can’t accept returns or provide refunds for blinds that are mis-measured because all of our blinds are made to measure and so the onus is on the customer to get the measurements right for their blinds. Sometimes you might just be having an off-day, get your centimetres and inches mixed up and end up with a blind that is nigh-on useless. With our Right-Size Guarantee we will take that one blind back, remake it to the correct size for you and send it back, saving you from having to buy a totally new blind! The Right Size Guarantee covers all made-to-measure blinds and curtains except our Cassette Blinds.

How does it work?

✔  Purchase Right-Size Guarantee when you place your order
✔  If one of your blinds has been measured incorrectly, get in touch with us within 14 days and we’ll tell you how to return the blind to us.
✔  Once your blind is with us, we’ll remake it or adjust the blind to your correct measurements and send it back.
✔  Please read our terms and conditions for full details as you will incur additional costs returning the blind to us.
