Tiebacks are decorative or functional accessories used to hold curtains open, allowing more light into a room and framing the window. They come in various forms—fabric loops, ropes, tassels or metal hooks—and can add a stylish touch while serving a practical purpose. Tiebacks are especially useful for heavier curtains or when you want to keep the fabric neatly gathered during the day. They're not strictly necessary but can enhance the look of your curtains and give you more control over light and airflow. Whether you choose subtle or ornate tiebacks depends on your curtain style and room décor.

Curtains play a major role in how natural light enters a room. Sheer or light-filtering curtains let in daylight while softening harsh glare, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Blockout or lined curtains block most or all light, which is ideal for sleeping areas or media rooms. By adjusting how and where curtains are opened, you can control the amount and direction of light. Layering curtains with sheers allows for flexible lighting control throughout the day. The fabric colour also matters—lighter colours reflect light and keep rooms feeling airy, while darker shades can make spaces feel more enclosed or intimate.

Yes, several curtain styles are ideal for large openings such as sliding glass doors or wide windows. Options like pinch pleat, S-fold or wave fold curtains work particularly well, as they glide smoothly along tracks and provide wide coverage. Using a ceiling-mounted track helps create a seamless look while allowing curtains to open fully, clearing the doorway. You can also use layered curtains—such as a sheer inner layer and a heavier outer layer—for privacy and insulation. For extra-wide spans, motorised tracks are available to make operation easier. Custom sizing ensures the fabric hangs evenly and functions properly across large areas.
