This entry was posted 11/09/2024
If you’re looking to purchase a Silent Gliss track, you might be wondering whether it is possible to cut and bend the track at home to fit the unique shape of your windows, particularly for bay windows. While it may seem like a straightforward DIY task, there are several factors you need to consider before attempting this at home. This comprehensive guide will help you understand the challenges of cutting and bending Silent Gliss tracks and explain why professional customisation may be the best route for achieving the perfect fit.
What are Silent Gliss Tracks?
Silent Gliss tracks are high-quality curtain and blind tracks designed to offer smooth and silent operation, ideal for both residential and commercial settings. These tracks are known for their durability, precision, and customisability, making them a preferred choice for customers who want to achieve a sleek, contemporary look for their window treatments.
Can You Cut and Bend Silent Gliss Tracks at Home?
The simple answer is No. Silent Gliss tracks are made of metal, and while cutting metal is feasible with the right tools, bending the tracks at home is not recommended. Here’s why:
- Material and Design Considerations: Silent Gliss tracks are constructed from high-grade metal to ensure durability and smooth operation. This material makes them difficult to bend accurately without specialised equipment.
- Precision Requirements: Achieving the correct bend for bay windows or other custom shapes requires precision. Any incorrect bending can compromise the functionality of the track, leading to improper gliding of curtains or blinds and potentially damaging the product.
- Professional Equipment Needed: In professional settings, Silent Gliss tracks are bent using specialised machines that ensure perfect, smooth bends. Trying to bend them at home without such equipment would likely lead to inaccuracies, making the track unusable.
