IS YOUR BAY WINDOW DRIVING YOU ROUND THE BEND?
Measuring for a Bay Window Curtain Pole or Track to the average person can seem daunting...... However it is not difficult if you follow these instructions:.
Tools required to measure a bay window are: a steel measuring tape, a protractor, most likely a step ladder and an extra pair of hands would come in useful too.
Ensure your old fitting has been taken down first for accuracy.
Simply start your measurements from where you would like the pole or finial to end and measure accurately between each angle with your tape measure. Jot your measurements down and make a sketch of your window shape as well. All your measurements including angles must be taken at the same height the pole will be fitted. Take the long measurement at the front of the bay as well. This is important as it will act as a double check for the other measurements.
Remember to look closely at radiators and windowsills as you will want your curtains to hang in front if possible. Take a note of your preferred projection for each facet of the bay. You may want the sides of the Bay Pole to project 10cm and the middle to project 6cm. This can all be achieved with Silent Gliss systems.
The Metropole from Silent Gliss is the best bay window pole on the market. Made from aluminium they come in three diameters 23mm, 30mm and 50mm with a choice of hand or cord operated. They come in 13 finishes including wood and a variety of mix and match finials. They are made to measure and are bent in the Silent Gliss factory to fit your Bay Window.
