Thermal Pencil Pleat Curtains - Insulated Linen Curtain Panel - Heading for Rings and Hooks or Tracks

We are often approached by our customers with the question of how to gather the pleated curtain, what gathering ratio to choose, and how far from each other to space the hooks. Hope this video will help to answer these questions, as well as give an idea about how to measure for the pleated curtain. I'm hanging my curtain on rings and hooks in this video, but pleated curtains are also perfect for tracks; you just don't require the rings and will insert the hooks directly into the track runners.

• Measuring for the length:
  
  If you have a curtain track:
  measure from the bottom of your track to the place where you wish to see the bottom of your curtain.
  
  If you have a curtain rod and rings:
  measure from the bottom of the curtain ring to the place where you wish to see the bottom of your curtain
  
  
• Measuring for the width:
  
  Watch the video on the product page. Measure the window/door width, then multiply it by 1.5. You will get the total width you need for the curtains.
  
  Consider whether you wish one curtain panel or a pair to cover the window. Having 2 curtain panels is more common for standard cases.
  
  Example: the width 49" is for a not gathered panel. When fully gathered with Pencil-pleat tape, the panel width becomes 33".
  
  For Thermal curtains to be effective, they must be installed properly.
  
  Thermal curtains should be installed as close to the window frame as possible. They are most effective when they drop to the windowsill or floor.
  
  Installing a cornice or valance above the drape further reduces the infiltration of air.
