Our Regular custom made hand draw bay window curtain tracks for a perfect fit and smooth performance

Important Notice!

Also, note that these tracks have to be bent in our workshop. They are NOT suitable for shaping at home.
Regular overlapping curtain track optionWhen it comes the style of your bay track. You have 2 options to choose from.
Option 1. Have your bay track made in 2 halves with a heavy duty centre joining splice. This gives your bay a clean smooth look. (see images below)
Option 2. Have your bay track made in 2 halves but with the custom made overlap. This can be order as "right over left" or "left over right". This is an especially great option when hanging blackout lined curtains. This allowes your curtains to really overlap each other. Giving the maximum light blocking when closed. (see image above)

Fitting a bay window curtain track
Another real benefit of having your new bay window curtain track made to fit perfectly. Is not having to cut the track down to size. Also not bending it in the wrong place. Then trying to re-bend it and making things even worse.
Not sure if you can fit one of my bay tracks for yourself. Then take a look at what Paul had to say about fitting the bay track I made for him here.
"Hi lee just wanted to say I received the item quickly from the date of order and thanks for guiding me though the process ,brilliant packaging mate to , I got it fitted over the weekend me and the farther in law 10 minutes and done , looks brill lovely finish blends nicely into the ceiling ..waiting for curtains now thanks for the speedy process really happy with the fit finish and quality. Damian, Kings Norton"
As you can see on this page, they look really neat and discreet. If you are ready you can jump straight down to the costing calculator right here.
However you may find the following information useful.
You don't have to worry about getting perfect bends in all the right places either. As these tracks arrive made to shape and ready to fit straight away.
I even supply the same screws and plugs that I use to fit these curtain tracks every week. These work for most situations when fitting to walls or ceilings.
"Hi Lee, My curtain maker was very impressed with my new bay window curtain track. She said she will recommend it to her other customers. All the best, Sue, Lincoln, Lincolnshire"
Bay window curtain tracks for heavy curtains
The way these tracks are constructed and the thickness of the metal gives them greater strength. Even compared to other metal tracks. Also the density of the metal used compared to DIY bendable tracks makes them superior.
Then the curtain brackets and the gliders are also super strong and will give many years of trouble free use. This is because they are made from nylon and not plastic which is harder wearing and does not go brittle in the same way as plastic.
You may have seen similar looking tracks however ours are made with a thickness of 1.5mm, most others are made using only a 1mm thickness. I know that 0.5mm extra does not sound like a lot more. But believe me it makes a lot of difference to the weight this track can carry.
"Hi Lee, I'd also be happy for you to give my email address to prospective customers who want to contact existing customers. Yours is such an unusual business, that I imagine a lot of prospective customers probably hesitate because they can't quite believe that buying a fitted curtain track online really works. I can reassure them that it does! Paul, Maidstone"
Curtain tracks for bay window ceiling fixed
5 sided bay window Curtain trackSee how discreet this white metal ceiling fixed bay curtain track is. After a while you almost forget its there. This gives the bay window a simple uncluttered look. Allowing the curtains to be the main focal point.
Also being made of metal it wins over plastic every day of the week. Firstly it will carry more weight with ease. It will also last and work well many times longer than plastic bay tracks.
Also they just look so much better!
If you choose the ceiling mounted bay window curtain track. Then the brackets make the track sit flush to the ceiling. Unlike other DIY bendable curtain tracks (See competitors bay track here) that are supposedly ceiling mounted.
They use what are called "universal brackets". These brackets allow you to either fix to a wall or to a ceiling. The downside is that they just look plain ugly.
In the image here you can see the flush fit bay window curtain track we supply using the purpose designed ceiling mount brackets. In most situations you can hardly see them.
The track below has a small gap between the ceiling and the top of the track. In my opinion they just don't look good at all. This is common on most DIY store bought curtain tracks.
Bay window curtain track brackets and gliders?
Another problem with DIY tracks are that they NEVER seem to come with enough gliders to hold your curtains up. Also you will find they NEVER have enough brackets. Especially when fitting them in bay windows....... Funny how that works out :-)
You will need more brackets when fitting in bays. The track needs more support on each side of the bends. Also it fitting to the ceiling within the bay. Then I set the brackets closer together than when on a straight track.
Not one of our bay tracks!
Curtain Tracks for Bay WindowsThis bay track above is definitely NOT one of mine. It does not sit flush with the ceiling leaving a gap. It also has the universal brackets for wall or ceiling fitting. The problem is they just look really ugly when fitted to a ceiling. These tracks come pre packed at set sizes and have to be bent at home. They seem like a good idea but are very difficult to get right.
"Hi Lee, I ordered a ceiling attached bay window curtain track from you last year, to hold heavy interlined curtains and it was easy to put up and works beautifully. Very pleased with it and will certainly recommend you to people.
Thank you, Heather, Sandbach, Cheshire"
Problems with old plastic curtain tracks
I'm sure you have had an old plastic curtain track fitted. Then one day you go to close the curtains and a bracket breaks away. Then soon after another, and another bracket breaks.
Soon the track becomes almost unusable. The same with the plastic gliders that end up going brittle and breaking after a few years.
Want to get an instant cost for a new curtain track custom made to fit your bay window exactly ? Then click on the big red button just below to get an instant price.
