Curtain styles to use on curtain tracks
Tracks can be designed to hide the track from view when curtains are hung by using pleated draperies. By inserting the drapery pin hook lower, the drapery is raised in front of the track, covering it from view when closed. Ripplefold and wavefold curtains are also popular. These similar, but distinct styles create a flowing, contemporary look.
In addition to these styles, ceiling curtain tracks can accommodate a variety of other curtain designs that enhance the aesthetic appeal of any space. For instance, grommeted curtains can be used with ceiling curtain tracks, providing a modern and sleek look. These curtains feature metal rings that slide smoothly along the track, making them easy to open and close.
Furthermore, ceiling curtain tracks offer the flexibility to mix and match different curtain styles to suit specific needs. For example, combining sheer curtains with blackout curtains on a double track system can provide both privacy and light control. This setup is particularly useful in bedrooms or media rooms where light management is crucial.
The versatility of ceiling curtain tracks extends to their ability to be customized for unique spaces. Tracks can be curved or angled to fit unconventional room layouts, such as bay windows or corner spaces. This adaptability makes ceiling curtain tracks an ideal choice for creating stylish and functional window treatments in any home or office setting.

Curtain track installation
How to install ceiling curtain track
For ceiling-mounted curtain tracks, it's very important to make a secure connection to the ceiling. If unable to screw into wood ceiling joists, quality anchors should be used. For heavy draperies, more brackets may be needed than is normally required. Brackets or screws should be used close to the end of track sections and near splices for proper support. See our blog article if installing your ceiling curtain track system on a drop ceiling.
The installation of ceiling-mounted curtain tracks can greatly enhance the functionality and aesthetic of a room. The process begins with measuring the space accurately to ensure the track fits perfectly. For a wall-to-wall installation, take 1/2" off your dimension to be sure it will fit. It's crucial to consider the type of ceiling material when selecting the appropriate mounting hardware. For instance, different anchors may be required for drywall compared to concrete.
Additionally, the placement of mounting brackets should be carefully planned to distribute the weight of the curtains evenly, preventing any sagging or detachment over time. By following these guidelines, ceiling-mounted curtain tracks can provide a seamless and elegant solution for any space.
How to hang curtains on a track
There are many different styles of slides and carriers to go on curtain track sets. Among them are swivel slides, swivel slides with hooks, ball bearing carriers, ripplefold carriers, and wavefold carriers. Please see our blog article explaining their various uses.
How to install recessed curtain track
A recessed curtain track is a specialized track that sits flush with the ceiling once installed. It involves a different mounting technique. This track system is typically used in new construction or major renovations, as it requires wood blocking to be placed in the ceiling before the sheetrock is installed. For more guidance, please refer to our Recess track page, which includes instructions and visual aids.
