Introduction to Ordering Bay Window Curtain Tracks
Hi, I'm Lee Stevens from Ezecurtains.co.uk, and it's so easy to order a bay window curtain track to fit your window perfectly on this website. So what you need to do is you need to just get the total width of your bay. So if your track's within the bay only, you just measure around all the sides within the bay.
Measuring Your Bay Window
Enter that total figure into the box. If it's returning out of the bay, then start your measuring from out of the bay, within the bay, and out the other side. Enter that in the box. The next step is how is it going to fix?
Choosing the Fixing Method
To the ceiling, to the wall, combination of both? Click the one that you think that suits your bay window and how you think your track's gonna fit. The third one is a dropdown menu for your bay shape. Now, click on the items on there.
Selecting Your Bay Shape
It'll open a little image to show you the bay shape. If it doesn't look like your bay shape, then click on another one until you find the one that you think looks closest to your bay shape. Then there are a few other items underneath that you'll click on. Finally, at the bottom of the form, you'll enter your personal details and you'll make payment.
Finalizing Your Order Details
You'll receive an email, which will then have a link in it taking you through to the final measuring page. This is the second part of the process, and this is where you'll give us all the exact angles and sizes for each side of the bay. We can work out how to make your track to fit perfectly. So that's it.
Customer Support and Assistance
Have any questions as you move along through the process? Then please just get in touch and ask us, and we'll help you through.
You will find help for all the different styles of bay tracks we offer on this website. The basics are the same for all the bay tracks.
The ordering is a 2 Step Process.
Step.1 Is giving us the overall width of your track. Selecting how your bay track is going to fix. Then selecting your bay window shape.
There are a few other choices to make depending on which style of bay track you choose. Such as brackets, overlaps, cord control choices. Then you will enter your name, address and email. Then make your payment.
Step . 2 After making payment you will receive an email order confirmation. At the bottom of this email will be a link to the final measuring page on the website for your bay shape. There is a template fot you to follow. It also has a form with boxes for entering all the sizes we need. There are some other questions about how your curtains are going to hang and a couple of other things that will help us complete your new bay window curtain track.

Use the quick link buttons below to go to the ordering guide for each of the bay window curtain track styles.
Regular bay track Ordering Guide
Step 1
The size you enter in the "Track Size" box. Is the size you get by measuring around all the sides of your bay where the track is going to fit.
So if the track is only fitting within the bay. Then measure from either the front edges of your window sill. Also, maybe any small walls on each side within the bay. This is if your curtains are hanging longer than the window sill.
If you are hanging curtains that hang down to the sill and not past. Then you will be measuring across the window frames. Also, maybe the little side walls to where the sill finishes.
Don't worry about getting this size super accurate. Within 2 or 3cm is absolutely fine at this point.
Step 2
From the "track fixing to?" menu. Pick the one that you think represents the way your track is going to fit.
If your bay track is going to only fit to the ceiling whin the bay. Then select option 1.
If your bay track is going to fit to the wall over the window within the bay only. Then select option 3.
If your track is going to fit to the ceiling within the bay. Then to walls outside the bay on each side. Then select option 2.
If your track is going to fit to the walls over the window within the bay and on the returns out of the bay on each side. Then select option 4.
Finally, if your track is going to be ceiling fixed within the bay and on the returns out of the bay on each side. Then select option 5.
If unsure then select the option you think is correct. Then when you place your order (with a bay photo). I always review the order to make sure the correct option has been selected. If not I will get in touch to explain the better option.
Step 3
From the drop down menu "Bending service". click on a few options from the list. This will open a small image of the bay shape chosen.
Pick the one that looks closest to the shape of your bay.
Again when I look at your bay photo with your order. I will make sure you have chosen the correct shape. If you chosen bay shape is not correct. then I will get in touch and suggest we amend this.
Step 4
This is where you will order extra brackets if you feel you have very heavy curtains. Or possibly if you feel the wall or ceiling is not strong enough.
You can then distribute the curtain weight over more brackets.
Also, if your bay window curtain track is returning out of the bay on each side. Then fixing to the wall you will need to choose the bracket size. This is how much they project the track off the wall. Usually the 3cm or 4cm projection brackets are perfectly adequete. However, if the return sills sick out quite a bit. Then the 7cm brackets maybe a good idea. Tthis will keep the curtains hanging straight down. Nor being pushed out by the sill.
Step 5
You can order extra curtain track gliders to hang your curtains from it you would like. We belive we add enough for most curtains. However, some people just feel more comfortable ordering extra just in case they need them. For gathered curtains we allow a glider for every 4tth pocket on the curtain tape.
Then we have have the centre of the track options. You can have your bay track in one complete width. Then you can have overlapping tracks which means one curtain literally overlaps the other when closed. Then the final centre track option is to have 2 tracks simply butting together. then secured in place with the heavy duty track splice.
Step 6
This is where you will send us at least one photo of your bay window. See here how to take the kind of photos that work for us.
You can simply upload an image from your PC, laptop or smartphone.
Or if you want you can simply click on the upload button if using your smartphone. Your camera icon or name will appear. Click on this and take your bay photo. It will then be automatically added to your order form. Want to take another, then just repeat the process.
Step 7 (optional)
This is where you can add any straight curtain tracks to your bay track order. Click on "Yes" to expand the form.
You can just skip this if you don't want to ad any more tracks.
Step 8 (optional) This is where you can add curtain draw rods or curtain hooks to your order. Don't need any then just skip this.
Step 9
This is where you will give us your name, address, email and phone number for your order.
We will also need these for our carrier to deliver your new bay track order.
Step 10 (Not optional, sorry :-)
