Curtains
Curtain headings come in many different forms with the main ones shown below. We can advise on which one would best suit your requirements. Linings are also very important and we can advise on the most suitable lining for your curtains. The correct lining and interlining (or just blackout) can really enhance both the look and performance of your curtains.
Pencil PleatPleats are made with a stitched in pencil pleat heading tape. The cords are then pulled to form the desired pleats. Suited to most situations as can be used with either a track or a pole.

Pinch PleatPinch pleats are handmade and give a very attractive finish. A stiffening material called buckram is inserted to form the pleats instead of using a tape. There are various options in the type of pleats that can be formed:- double pinch pleat, triple pinch pleat, goblet and more. Best suited for use with a pole rather than a track. If fitted on a track the sections between the pleats need to be pulled forward.

Eyelet Eyelet curtains are both stylish and practical. This type of curtain uses less fabric and sits well in the stacked back position, making it ideal around doors.
Can only be used with a pole. We use quality metal eyelets and eyelet buckram for strength and stability. |
Wave Heading
With a wave curtain track the gliders are joined together with cords, allowing the waves to maintain their effect when the curtains are closed. Recently this has been our most popular heading and we do a hand-sewn version which eliminates any stitching showing on the face of the curtain.
