Invest In Corded Curtain Tracks To Make Life Easier

You may be under the impression that corded curtain tracks (also known as corded curtain rails) are a thing of the past and that nowadays, cords are more commonly known for being used with blinds. But this is not the case. Whilst they are indeed used to operate blinds, cords that are used for the purpose of opening and closing curtains are by no means dead and can actually be more beneficial than the standard uncorded curtains.

If you are less able-bodied than most, the everyday task of opening and closing curtains in particular can become something of a struggle. Even for the able-bodied however, this can sometimes be quite taxing, especially if the curtains are in an awkward position and slightly out of reach. If opening and closing curtains manually is a struggle for you one way or another, it can sometimes turn into a potential hazard. People often yank on their curtains to open or close them, but the force of this could mean that the curtain rail would detach itself from the wall and maybe even fall on top of you.

Corded curtain rails are simple to use; they incorporate a long cord, which can generally be found running down the side of the curtains. This cord must then simply be pulled to open or close a pair of curtains making the process much easier. Corded curtain rails are ideal especially if you have particularly heavy curtains or your window is difficult to reach.

If you currently have uncorded curtain rails, you may notice that your curtains quite frequently become dirty. This is due to the fact that, every time you open or draw your curtains, you constantly transfer dirt from your hands onto the surface of the curtains; this can include seen as well as unseen substances, such as sweat. If you were to invest in corded curtain rails, the need to physically handle your curtains will inevitably reduce significantly. Because of this, your curtains are more likely to stay cleaner for longer, meaning that they will require less cleaning.

Corded curtain rails are available in a variety of models, the most popular of which being the Silent Gliss 3000. This metal track is ideal for medium weight curtains and helps them to run smoother when they are opened or closed. This is made possible by the fact that the cording mechanism is in separate internal channels on the Silent Gliss, meaning that there is no chance of the cords falling out of the track. These tracks can be bent into a forward or reverse position and are available in a variety of different colours including black, gold, bronze, silver, brushed aluminium and white.

The Silent Gliss 3900 works similarly to the Silent Gliss 3000, however it is much larger and has roller glides. This allows it to hold much heavier curtains than the Silent Gliss 3000 but, in spite of the additional weight, it still maintains the smooth running when the curtains are opened or closed. Available in white, the Silent Gliss 3900 requires almost no maintenance.

By investing in corded curtain tracks you can simplify the process of opening and closing your curtains, especially if you find it a particular struggle. These tracks can be measured to fit the size of your window and are particularly suited to a bay window. With one smooth movement, you can open or close your curtains hassle-free.
