Accessories
Pelmets are made using Essex board, a highly compacted board, this is lighter in weight than a plywood or hardboard and is suitable for many applications. Two weights of wadding are available. Shapes and trims are a great addition.
White pelmet boards are available, with the option to be ready for install with hook velcro attached and brackets supplied. Boards come as 15cm deep as standard or we can cut that down to the depth of your choice.
Cushions, box cushions and bolsters are made to your specifications and can be piped, plain or trimmed. We offer a standard feather fill, premium feather or wool inners (premium feather and wool can be adapted to a soft or firm fill). Wool inners are more popular for clients with allergies.
Tiebacks are available either piped, plain or cord/trim finishes using buckram or naturally soft.
Voiles and Sheers
Not all sheers have lead weight attached, we have the skills and equipment for adding this if preferred. Hems are your choice, lead weight bottom, lead weight turned into a double hem or no weight for a soft drape. All heading styles are available too. Thinking of adding a border or trim, we’d be pleased to look at a fabric sample and advise if this is possible.
Installation and Pre-Dressed Options
We have adapted our installation options to support your preferred way of working. We have scaffolding and steamers for hire if you are carrying out your own installation. Maybe you want an extra pair of hands to help on the day? Or we can carry out installation (including automation options) as a representative of your business.
Delight your clients with our curtain dressing service. Curtains can be hooked, steamed, dressed and hung in our workroom. They’ll be ready for your client to use, no need to leave plastic tiebacks/ribbons on the curtains after fitting to train the fabric for your client - the work is already done!
