Pencil pleat curtains FAQs

See answers to our most frequently asked questions on pencil pleat curtains below.

Do pencil pleat curtains go on a track or pole?

Pencil pleat curtains can go on a pole or a track, so the choice is yours. There's the option of metal, wood or painted curtain poles, or discreet curtain tracks, depending on the look you want to achieve. Your local advisor will share all of the lovely options from our range at your in-home appointment.

Can Pencil pleat curtains keep my room warmer?

Yes, all our made-to–measure curtains can help to keep a space warmer and banish draughts. They do this by reducing the air exchange between your cold windows and warm room. Heavier fabrics, such as velvet, are great insulators, especially when they're teamed with a thermal or blackout lining. At your in-home appointment, your local advisor can recommend the best cosy options for your home.
