Curtains do more than just cover your windows—they contribute to your room’s beauty, privacy, and comfort. But selecting the correct curtain is not sufficient. Installation is the key to that completed, professional look. Here in this blog, we‘ll take you through everything you should know about curtain installation—from measurement and mounting to errors to steer clear of.
Why Installing Curtains is Important
Curtains add both style and practicality to your home. A proper installation ensures:
- Light control
- Increased privacy
- Energy efficiency (heat & cold insulation)
- An elegant, finished look
Step-by-Step Curtain Installation Process
1. Take a Window Measurement Initially
Determine how high you want your curtain rod to hang above your window and measure the width and height of your window before making a purchase.
2. Put the curtain rod in place.
a. Select rods that are mounted on the wall or the ceiling.
b. To ensure that the rod is straight and securely fastened, use a level.
3. Use hooks or rings to hang the curtains.
For a tidy finish, use the proper hooks or rings based on the type of curtain (tab top, pleated, or eyelet).
4. Last-Minute Modifications
Make sure the curtains are not gathered up incorrectly, hang evenly, and touch the floor if that is the intention.
Avoid these common curtain installation mistakes:
- Mounting the rod too near the window frame;
- Picking too short or narrow curtains;
- Failing to use wall anchors (especially for heavy curtains);
- Picking a fabric or color that is out of style with the space.
