Fixing Options for Stage Tracking

The stage track can be wall or top fixed. In a standard hall enviroment there will usually be a concrete ceiling or timber patrous to secure the ceiling saddles to. The hanging bolts then attach securely to these.

Alternativly the track can be wall fitted using 200mm 350mm or 500mm wall brackets. 

The kit will come with these if selected as options. Depending on the length of track there will be (x) no of supports. An example calculation is 700cm track divided by 150cm for bracket spacing = 4.66 thus 5 brackets supplied to support.

 

 

How the Walk Along Curtain Track System operates

 

Overview of Weight Limits of Stage Curtain Track

Six Track will be installed at a height such that any failure would be hazardous.

Installation must be undertaken under the supervision of a competent person.

All suspension points must be assessed to ensure they are adequate to suspend the load.

Before starting the installation the load for each support should be calculated allowing for the weight of all the track and accessories as well as the curtain whether open or bunched or part bunched as during opening. Care must be taken to allow for loads imposed during operation, the load on a twin head pulley may be increased by up to 50KG due to the effect of the hauling line.

The maximum recommended length of a single span track is 10.0 metres and 18.0 metres for a overlap track system.

The maximum distance between track supports is approx 2.25m for open cloth and approx 1.60m for bunched cloth.

The max load per runner is 6.0Kg and has a recommended spacing of 300mm when the cloth is open. Swivel hooks are best used on the curtains instead of eyelets or ties.

We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.

 

Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement

Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.

Double / Triple check your measurements

how to measure for curtains



Choosing your Curtain Track Width

The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.

Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics, we recommend further to fully cover and more the window. Tested to 30cm

Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm

Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width

Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%

* all dependent on thickness of fabric

How to Measure for Blinds goinng Inside the Recess

How to measure for blinds inside thet recess

  • Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the smallest size.
  • Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take thesmallest size.
  • We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
  • Double check your measurements
  • Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm

How to Measure Outside of the Recess


  • Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
  • Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
  • Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
  • These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.

  • Double check your measurements
  • Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm



Cubicle Tracks you have to measure with right angles from wall to wall where you want the track to go

Draw your room on a piece of paper with a sky view

Now measure from the wall to wall for straight tracks,

L Shape Tracks Measure to a point on the floor and mark with a piece of tape. Then for the other sides measure from the other wall to that point.

Always check for obstructions and fitting issues you may need to work around
