Common Questions
What is the spacing from the bottom of the track to the top of the curtain?
- Standard curtains have approximately 3.75 to 1″ of a gap from the bottom of the track to the top of the curtain.
What are the dimensions of the track?
Can the track be cut to size as required on site?
- Yes, the track is made to be field cut on site using a hack saw or sawzall.
How much width does the radius corner add to the length?
- A radius corner has a 2' radius. So if you input 10' for curtain length you will end up with 12' when you attach the radius corner. If that is too long then simply cut the track onsite and the radius will still work.
How does the track go together?
- The track is modular in design and will arrive in pieces that have a simple bolt together design.
How close together do I need the track supports?
- The track should be supported approximately every 5' with a track support. The farther apart the track supports, the greater the deflection. If you have a relatively light weight curtain then you could space the supports out to about 8' apart. You will receive enough track supports with your order to achieve this 5' spacing.
Can I simply drill straight through the track and into the ceiling / structure?
- Yes. This is called a flush mount install and is very common. Simply drill through the middle of the track and use a small wood screw, bolt, Tek screw...ect into your structure. Space the holes about every 3-5'.
