#1. Choose between curtain rod or track

Decide whether you prefer a rod or track system.

Measure the window.

Add +15 cm on each side of the frame to cover it well and allow the curtains to open fully.

Curtain BARR

The BARR curtain rod is the most decorative and visible option, ideal if you are looking for a classic finish. Choose the diameter according to the weight of the curtain. 

  • Ø 19 mm: for light curtains or sheers.
  • Ø 28 mm: for medium weight or semi-opaque curtains.

 

And don't forget the BETYDLIG brackets and the endings (next steps).

Rails: VIDGA System

A discreet, modern and functional alternative, ideal for a uniform effect.

  • System modular and flexible, perfect for one, two or three layers of curtains.
  • Installation on wall or ceiling.
  • Corner brackets and extensions available to separate the track from the wall or adapt it to different settings.
  • Connecting pieces allow you to lengthen the track or continue the installation in the corner.

 

Don't forget the VIDGA brackets, nor the hooks and rings (next steps).

#2. Select brackets

You must take into account where you want to place it and how many layers of curtains you are going to have:

 

Wall bracket: Traditional and versatile. You can put both BARRs and rails for 2 or more layers. If your BARR is longer than 140cm, add a center support to prevent sagging.

Ceiling mount: Modern and elegant. With BARR on the ceiling, you can only place one layer. With track you can install two layers or more.
