Curtain installation is usually carried out when the hard decoration is basically completed and before the furniture is brought in. This is considered a relatively late stage of decoration.
There are many things to pay attention to when purchasing curtains. Having already experienced the pitfalls of previous decoration, you must not fail in the end with the curtains.
Today, Sambar will tell you about the precautions for reserving curtains.
If you want to choose curtains in advance, the earliest you can do so is after the ceiling, floor, window frames and other decorations that will affect the size of the curtains are completed.
In the early preparation stage, curtains are relatively simple. You only need to consider whether to make curtain boxes. Curtain boxes are usually installed when carpentry is installing the ceiling.
Since the track is not decorative enough, most people will choose to install a curtain box outside the track to increase the aesthetics and integrity. Therefore, when choosing to install the track, you need to consider whether to install a curtain box. If it is a Roman rod, a curtain box is not needed.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that you must install a curtain box when you choose a track. It’s just that a curtain box looks more beautiful and provides better light blocking. It mainly depends on the individual.
1. If you divide it by budget, if your budget is limited, choose Roman rod, and if your budget is sufficient, you can choose track + curtain box.
2. If you have high requirements for shading, it is recommended to make a track + curtain box, which has a better shading effect than Roman rods.
3. If there is a choice of gypsum lines, Roman rods are usually installed on the side, usually under the gypsum lines, which is more coordinated and beautiful.
1. The wall or ceiling where the track and Roman rod are installed must be load-bearing and capable of drilling holes. The installation methods are divided into top installation and side installation. The customized height of curtains is different for different installation methods, so please pay attention to this.
2. When installing the electric track, you need to reserve the power cord.
3. The installation of Roman rods is relatively simple. Because they are decorative in nature, there is nothing special to pay attention to in the early stages.
4. The curtain box should be wide enough. If you want to install double tracks, the curtain box should have at least 15cm of space left. If you want to install electric double tracks, you should have at least 20cm of space left. If it is an arc electric curtain, you need to reserve more space.
Some people like the track but don't want to expose it, so they can choose to cover the track or use curtains, which can also serve as a cover.
The method to cover the track is to make long curtains and adjust the hooks to cover the track. The height of the curtains to cover the track needs to be 3cm higher than ordinary curtains.
Electric curtains cannot have track covers, and doing so will affect the smoothness of the track. Track-covered curtains are different from ordinary curtain hooks.
The processing cost of curtains is relatively high, and it is no longer popular to make curtains now, especially if the curtains are not matched well, they can easily appear cumbersome and lose grade.
A small number of people also choose looping, also called perforation, which is a way of hanging curtains, different from pleating.
Pleating is the most common hanging method, the hook is adjustable and easy to disassemble; looping is unconventional and can only be used on Roman rods, but the height cannot be adjusted, it is inconvenient to disassemble and wash, and the loop cannot be removed.
① Polyester is a natural material for making curtains. It is crisp, durable, wrinkle-resistant, drapes well, does not stick to hair, is easy to clean, and is not expensive.
② In comparison, pure cotton and pure linen are not suitable for making curtains. They are not crisp, have poor drape, are easily wrinkled, have no light-blocking properties, and are not washable.
③ Although silk fabrics are beautiful, they are expensive and not durable. They are prone to deformation and damage after being exposed to the sun for a long time. If you really like silk fabrics, in addition to adding an extra layer of blackout cloth, you also need to take good care of it on a daily basis.
④ Velvet curtains are also a popular fabric in recent years. They are high-end and elegant, but difficult to take care of. Due to the special nature of the material, they easily absorb dust and are not suitable for families with babies.
⑤ When purchasing blackout fabrics, it is recommended to choose blackout curtains with a black silk layer, which can provide a maximum blackout rate of 99.99%, making them more environmentally friendly and more beautiful than silver-coated blackout curtains.
