Curtain track issues are frustrating, but they're often easy to diagnose and fix. Here are the solutions to the five most common problems we see.
-
Problem: Track is Sagging.
-
Cause & Solution: The track is either too thin for the span/weight or a bracket has come loose. Fix: Install an additional center bracket for support. If it's still sagging, it's time to upgrade to a heavy-duty track.
-
-
Problem: Curtains are Stuck or Hard to Move.
-
Cause & Solution: Dirt buildup or a bent track. Fix: Follow our cleaning and lubrication guide above. Inspect the track for any kinks or damage.
-
-
Problem: Loud, Scraping Noise.
-
Cause & Solution: Cheap, hard plastic gliders scraping against metal. Fix: Lubrication can provide a temporary fix, but a permanent solution is to upgrade to a track with silent glide technology.
-
-
Problem: Light Gap in the Middle.
-
Cause & Solution: The track lacks an overlap arm. Fix: This is a design flaw. The only real solution is to replace the track with one that includes this essential feature.
-
-
Problem: Brackets Pulling Out of the Wall.
-
Cause & Solution: Installed in drywall without a proper anchor. Fix: Use sturdy wall anchors designed for drywall. For heavy curtains, always drill into a wooden stud.
