Are You Shopping for blackout curtains for bay windows?

So what is the solution to perfect fitting blackout curtains for bay windows?

Then to start off right you're going to need to use bay window curtain tracks. There several really good reasons it should be a bay track, and NOT a bay window curtain pole. Or even multiple blackout blinds.

Bay poles are a complete nightmare to use. The rings struggle to pass round the angles on the pole. Also the brackets make the pole stand off the wall to much. This allows lots of light to leak out the top of your curtains.

Don't even get me started on  how bad the ceiling bracket option is.  So to recap you will get lots of light leaking in over the top, sides and middle of your blackout curtains.  Completely defeating the point of butying blackout curtain in the first place.

The problem with blackout blinds is that you will have gaps between each one when fiited.  Roller blinds are the worst offenders. As the brackets on each side mean the fabric width is severely reduced compared to the bracket width. 

What kind of bay window curtain tracks will work well?

• You will need a bay window curtain track that allows your curtains to overlap in the middle properly.
• That can curve back to the wall on the outside ends (If fitted inside the bay only).
• That if fitted inside the bay to the ceiling. The track fits flush and leaves no gap over the top.
• That ideally will return out of the bay on each side to block much more light.

These 4 options are must haves to acheive maximum light blocking. All our bay window curtain track can give you these 4 things. Our "Regular" bay window curtain track is our most popular bay track option. You can see in the images below how all these features look. Plus every bay track comes with our NO quibble 10 Year Guarantee.
