Silent Gliss Wave Heading System

Create Waves with the Silent Gliss Wave Heading System from Silent Gliss:

What makes Wave™ so unique?

•When completely closed or part open, the curtains offer a smooth continuous wave effect.

•The Wave™ glider cord is not visible when the curtain is fully closed.

•The simple yet stylish design of the Wave™ heading means curtains are easy to make up with our special cordless 70mm tape. Sewn along the top of the curtain, the pockets are in exactly the right position for our track system.

•Depending on the fullness selected Wave™ can be as economical as as a standard 1" tape but not as stylish.

•When taken down the curtain is flat for cleaning.

How it works....

A special glider cord is contained within the curtain track, - this limits the extension of the curtain fabric, creating a smooth and continuous wave effect.

Curtain Stacking

When open the Wave™ System encourages the curtains to stack back neatly and straight.

Compatible with following Silent Gliss systems - Metropole 30mm/50mm, Metroflat, Autoglide 5090 Electric Track, 3840W Cord Operated Track.

You can purchase the Silent Gliss Metropole with the Wave Supplement from Pole Design.  The  Wave™ supplement includes your pole specially dapted with Wave™ gliders and all you need to make your curtains including Wave™ tape, hem tape and hooks. 

If you simply want the pole converted to Wave just Contact us and we will give you a price.

Silent Gliss Curtain Tracks

This article will help you choose the right curtain track for the right situation.  There are loads of curtain track manufacturers out there.  Most of them making inferior cheap tracks. However, once you have tried a Silent Gliss track you will see why they are the best and why it is worth spending the extra pennies on a reliable curtain track that may outlast even your curtains. The patented nylon gliders provided will stay intact and your curtains will glide effortlessly with no friction or tugging.

Lets start with the Silent Gliss Hand Operated Curtain Tracks:

  • The Silent Gliss 1090 is a slim track only 12mm deep which is ideal for voile curtains or lightweight unlined curtains. It can ceiling fixed and top fixed and can be bent to fit bay windows. The 1090 is available in white or silver colours

  • The Silent Gliss 1080 is a sturdy all round curtain track which will easily take both a lined or medium weight interlined curtain. It can be used on its own or under valances or pelmets.

  • The Silent Gliss 1280 is a superior version of the 1080 and it can take a heavier weight of curtain.  Curtains will operate even more efficiently due to the patented roller gliders that come with this track.
Lets move onto the Silent Gliss corded curtain tracks:

  • The Silent  Gliss 3000 is a very attractive cord operated curtain track. It can take a medium to heavyweight curtain and because the cord channels are enclosed in the system the cords cannot slip out. This track can be corded at one end or at both ends to operated each curtain independantly.

Made to Measure Curtains now available at POLE DESIGN

We are delighted to announce our new curtain making service at Pole Design. As I started out as a Designer and Soft Furnisher it seems a shame not to offer a curtain making service on our online shop.  I have many years of experience in the soft furnishings industry and am now missing the practical side of things.  Curtain poles require curtains so why not use Pole Design as a one stop shop. 

If its Roman Blinds you are after then you will get the same high quality. We only make sewn in rod pockets, hand stab stitched because we believe your blinds should look good from both sides of your window. No ugly tapes or rows of machine stitching here.

Silent Gliss roman blind track systems can be purchased from our online shop at our usual discounted rates giving you top quality at a great price.

We don't cut corners and believe only the best will do.

Bay Window Calculator

will be uploading onto the POLE DESIGN website a sample of a system generated drawing you will receive when you order a bay window curtain pole from  Pole Design

Once you have taken your measurements and angles you e mail them to us. 

We then enter them into some specially developed software from Silent Gliss which  generates a scale drawing of your bay.  It shows you the outline of your bay and the exact position within the bay of your pole or track. It is at this point we can tell if you have made any major error with your measurements. 

This allows you to have complete confidence in your measurements and thus minimises any risk of error.  See sample of Bay Window Calculator below.


Its a great tool and it works!

We have reduced the prices on the whole Silent Gliss Metropole range till 31st December 2009.  This is because our current supplier is giving us extra discount and we have decided to pass this onto our customers to give you a better deal.

All our products in the Silent Gliss range carry a five year guarantee and we really know what we are talking about with Silent Gliss.  We pass on our valuable expertise to the customer.  We know when you need to use extension brackets and adjustable brackets for difficult situations and we don't just shove the order through for an easy life.  We will tell you what you need as long as you give us as much info as possible.

The Metropole really comes into its own on long straight runs up to 600cm and over.  Brackets are placed every 60cm and do not obstruct the curtains and the gliders allow the curtains ease of movement.

Silent Gliss Metropole  for bay windows is the best system on the market as it is bent to fit.  You will notice we don't sell any other Bay Window poles in our Pole Design that's because there really is nothing else to compare that really works.  We don't want to take the risk of selling dodgy corner brackets and C rings that we know are no good.

We have hands on experience in measuring and fitting for bay windows and motorised systems and what we don't know we will find out!
