Why Choose a Heavy Duty Straight Track?
Not all curtain tracks are up to the job when it comes to heavy drapes. Standard tracks often struggle, sag, or make curtains stiff to move. This heavy-duty option has been specifically engineered to:
- Support extra weight – ideal for thick, lined curtains.
- Stay rigid – no bowing or drooping over time.
- Glide with ease – choose from standard gliders, roller gliders, or even ball-bearing roller gliders for the smoothest movement.
- Last for years – backed by our 10-year guarantee.
Track Options
- Standard gliders – for lightweight curtains and voiles.
- Roller gliders – ideal for medium-weight curtains.
Made to Measure – Built Around Your Window
Every track is cut to your exact size and comes ready to fit straight out of the box. No fiddly DIY bending or trying to make a universal track fit where it doesn’t belong.
- Any length – perfect for wide windows or patio doors.
- Ceiling or wall fix – brackets supplied for your chosen fitting.
- Optional overlap arms – keep curtains neatly meeting in the middle.
Glider Options to Suit Your Curtains
We’ll match the right glider system to your curtains:
- Standard gliders – reliable for medium-weight curtains.
- Roller gliders – smoother action, especially for heavier fabrics.
- Ball-bearing roller gliders – our top recommendation for very heavy curtains such as velvet, chenille, or curtains with blackout + bump interlining. Team with draw rods for maximum ease on wide spans.
