Made to Measure Curtains & Sheers

Made To Measure Curtains & Sheers

Luxurious curtains and curtain sheers create a sense of warmth and stylish elegance in your home and provide excellent light control, privacy and insulation. With Spotlight’s Made to Measure service, you can customise the look and function of your drapes and sheer curtains to suit your colour scheme, decor style and lifestyle.

Made to Measure curtains and sheers are perfect for hard to fit windows, especially tall or unusually shaped ones you may find in period homes. For more modern homes, they’re also the ideal way to create a coordinated home interior, where you can find the perfect fabrics and finishes that can be used throughout the house - regardless of your window measurements.

With a huge range of curtain styles and fabrics to choose from, having your curtains made to measure is simple with Spotlight. Kick off the process with a FREE in-home measure and quote with one of our knowledgeable Made to Measure consultants, where you can review our extensive fabric swatch library in the comfort of your own home. All of the tricky measurements and calculations will be done for you, and once your order is complete your curtains and sheers will be installed by our team of expert fitters.

Custom Made Curtain Styles To Choose From 

Your Made to Measure curtains can be constructed with a range of header types, including eyelet, pleated, S fold and more. As well as customising the amount of fullness or gathering in your curtains, professional finishing touches such as deep hem heights and pattern matching are all part of the Made to Measure service.

 

Eyelet Curtains

Eyelet curtains are finished with metal rings or “eyelets” at the top, allowing the curtain to easily be threaded onto a rod for installation. This contemporary style is simple to operate and suits a wide range of decor styles. Eyelet curtains are inherently child-safe in design as they don’t require corded tracks for installation - making them an ideal choice for any families with young children. Choose from different eyelet ring colours to match your chosen fabric or rod - some options include Silver, Gold, Copper, Nickel, and Black, Matt Satin and Antique finishes.

 

Pleated Curtains

Pleated curtains are an elegant and classic option for any home. With Spotlight Made to Measure you can choose from a wide range of pleated header options. These styles of curtains can be installed on customised decorative tracks or rods for a cohesive finish to your home decor. Choose from the below pleated styles to best suit your space:

  • Pencil Pleat 
  • Pinch Pleat in Single, Double and Triple pleat options
  • Box Pleat
  • Reverse Pinch Pleat
  • Knife Pleat

 

S Fold Curtains

Also referred to as Wave Fold, S-fold curtains are a popular style that offers a modern, streamlined appearance. These are installed on specialised ceiling mounted s-fold tracks to create a stunning floor to ceiling window covering.

 

Rod pocket

Rod pocket headers are a simple and classic header option for your made to measure sheer curtains. With a narrow pocket stitched into the top of the sheer curtain, the finished effect is a delicate row of gathering once threaded onto a conduit rod. Rod pockets are a great choice for minimising bulk when it comes to combining with custom blockout curtains installed on either a rod or track.

 

Made to Measure Pelmets

For the ultimate elegant finish to your custom made drapes, you can also opt for made to measure padded pelmets to fully dress your windows. Whether you’re wanting to achieve a contemporary or a traditional aesthetic, pelmets are the ideal finish when you want to conceal the visibility of a curtain track or rod. Pelmets are also a great way to maximise if insulation and room darkening benefits. Choose from plain or piped base finishes and a range of shaped designs.

 



Get the Perfect Curtains For Your Home with the Huge Selection of Fabrics & Finishes

Once you’ve settled on the perfect curtain style, choose from a massive range of fabric options for your custom curtains and sheers. With Spotlight Made to Measure you can find a huge array of fabric types with different colours, textures, patterns, prints and functions.

 

Blockout coated fabrics

Blockout curtains are ideal in rooms where you need to achieve optimal light reduction, temperature control, privacy and noise reduction. Blockout fabrics can significantly increase your home’s warmth in winter, and reduce summer heat while also protecting your furnishings from the sun’s UV rays. Choose from cost-effective blockout coated fabrics, or add a separate blackout lining to your preferred custom made curtain design.

 

Room Darkening or triple weave fabrics

Triple weave or room darkening fabrics also provide light reduction, temperature control, privacy and noise reduction benefits to any space in your home. Utilising a special woven construction, these fabrics offer around 85%+ light blocking properties, while offering superior drape and handling not found in blockout coated fabrics.

 

Uncoated or Decorator fabrics

Uncoated fabrics come in a huge selection of fashionable colours, textures, jacquards, patterns and prints. As the name suggests, these fabrics do not include any blockout coatings but can be combined with any lining of your choice to maximise on insulating and light blocking properties. Adding a separate lining also has great benefits when it comes to the drape of your finished curtains. 

 

Sheers & voiles 

Sheer fabrics are the ideal choice for their light filtering and daytime privacy benefits. Spotlight’s selection of sheers and voiles include plain styles, textured styles and decorative embroidered hems to coordinate seamlessly with your other fabric selections. Sheer curtains are often used in conjunction with blockout or room darkening drapes to offer the full range of made to measure curtain benefits.
