Custom Pelmets

Custom Pelmet and Curtains - No Chintz


A pelmet is a framework covering to hang over the top of blinds or curtains. As simple and plain as you like it to be or, cut and shaped with swags and tails, pleated, and padded in almost any selection of materials. In fact, the sky’s the limit.

 

Why a custom pelmet?

Custom made pelmets hide the mechanisms of the blinds and curtains as well as the tracks. With a custom pelmet, you are not constrained to one layer of window covering, in fact, you could have a blind, some sheers and then a statement bespoke fabric all hanging from the same window with a totally neat finish because the various mechanisms for operating each layer is hidden behind a pelmet made specially to allow for all the hardware and tracks.

Helpful uses of a pelmet:

Made to order pelmets are an efficient means of blocking out all light in a room. If you want a really darkened room, a pelmet will stop light drift.

Pelmets are great for children’s bedrooms, especially with long summer evenings of daylight, parents may want to control the light in children’s rooms.

In order to keep warm air within a room in colder climates, a pelmet will trap air from escaping up to the ceiling and provide a good barrier between the drapes and the windowpanes.

If there is a big gap between the top of the window and the ceiling, one can push your custom curtains further up and make the windows look a bit taller by raising the height of the pelmets.

Pelmets are a great way for creating height and grandeur.

They can be very useful to disguise different height windows; a uniformity can be introduced by placing pelmets at all the same height.
