Curtain Rods & Tracks

Hang Your Curtains Right With the Best Curtain Accessories

Curtain accessories are often overlooked, but they play a big role in how your window setup works and looks. The right curtain rod or curtain track setup can improve the function of your curtains, while the right hooks and rings can influence the appearance of your curtains. Spotlight is your one stop shop for all the curtain rods, tracks and accessories you need for proper operation of your curtains. Find incredibly helpful curtain accessories such as curtain hooks, curtain rod rings and curtain flick sticks and enjoy stylish and practical curtains all with the help of Spotlight.

What's the Right Fit For Your Curtain Setup?

Different curtain styles require different curtain accessories for their installation. Choosing between rods or tracks for curtains may seem challenging, but it's surprisingly easy to identify when to use curtain rods or tracks:

• Curtain rods are best for curtains with a heading that must be threaded on, such as eyelet curtains and tab top curtains.
• Curtain tracks are designed for use with curtains that must be operated on a track gliding system, such as S-Fold curtains

Some curtains, such as multi header curtains and pencil pleat curtains, can be displayed on both curtain rods or tracks with the right curtain accessories.

Choose from a Wide Range of Curtain Rods and Tracks

At Spotlight, you can shop from a variety of different designs in curtain tracks and rods. In shopping for curtain rods, you can enjoy shopping for different designs, including expandable curtain rods and conduit tension rods for when you need to tailor the length of your curtain rod to your window architrave. For when you want to create a layered curtain arrangement with sheer and blockout curtains, Spotlight also offers a range of double curtain rods that help make this possible. In shopping for curtain tracks, enjoy a variety in colour tone, ensuring you find the perfect track system to match your curtains.

Make It Work with the Right Accessories

Curtain accessories influence both the appearance and functionality of your curtains. They also make the installation of your curtains that little bit easier. If you're installing curtains by yourself, it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the curtain accessories you'll find here at Spotlight, such as:

• Curtain hooks - Help connect your curtains to a curtain track system
• Curtain rings - Connect curtains that don't feature a pocket or eyelet system, such as pinch pleat curtains, to a curtain rod
• Curtain track gliders - Fit inside the track and glide along it to facilitate opening and closing your curtains
• Finials - The decorative additions that fit onto the ends of each curtain rod or pole to help prevent your curtains from sliding off
• End caps - Similar to finials, end caps add the perfect finishing touch to your curtain rod or pole

Get the Size and Placement Just Right

The placement of your curtain rod or tracks is influential in both the appearance and functionality of your curtains. In measuring your windows, first decide whether you're after a face fit or a recess fit. For a recess fit, you'll want to measure the width within your window architrave. For a face fit, you'll want to measure the width outside your window architrave. To determine the length of your curtain rods and tracks, it's a good idea to add an extra 15-30 cm to each side of your window measurements to make sure your windows are completely covered when the curtain is closed. The height of your curtain rods and tracks ultimately comes down to personal preference. To elongate your walls and add height to your space, ceiling mounts are a great choice. However, if you want a traditional style, consider installing your curtain rod or track around 20cm above your window architrave.

Add Style and Function in Every Detail

Spotlight offers a great range of curtain rods and tracks that look good while doing their job. Taking some time to explore Spotlight's curtain rods, tracks and their relevant accessories helps you to match colour tones and styles to complement your decorative style. For a blended look, match your curtain hardware to your rods or tracks. On the other hand, if you want to introduce an artistic touch, look for colours that contrast your rods or tracks for a design feature.

Hang Curtains Without the Headache

Curtain rods are often positioned on a pair of curtain brackets, with one bracket positioned on each end of your windows. If you're after a tool free installation, consider installing our conduit rods within your window architrave. Before hanging your curtains, make sure to always check the weight capacity of your curtain hardware. As a general rule of thumb, only choose the thinner curtain poles for curtains that weigh less than 3 kilograms. For curtains that weigh more than 10 kilograms, it is recommended to choose some of the more durable curtain poles in our range.
