When it comes to dressing your windows, the curtain fabric often takes the spotlight. But to achieve a truly finished, designer look in your home, it’s the curtain accessories—like pelmets, tiebacks, and tracks—that bring everything together.
Whether you’re renovating your new BTO, condo, or resale unit, the right accessories not only enhance style but also improve function and curtain longevity. Here’s how each element contributes to a more polished and practical window treatment.
A pelmet is a horizontal box structure that conceals your curtain track. It’s often mounted to the ceiling or wall to give your curtains a seamless, built-in finish.
Hides the curtain hardware for a cleaner look
Blocks light from escaping at the top of blackout curtains
Adds architectural structure to the window area
Style tip: Choose a pelmet colour that matches your ceiling or walls for a minimalist touch—or go bold for contrast in feature areas.
Tiebacks keep your curtains neatly pulled to the sides during the day while allowing maximum daylight into your room. Available in fabric loops, ropes, or even metal hooks, they’re great for softening formal spaces.
Offer styling flexibility: gathered or full-length drape
Add a touch of luxury or texture
Prevent wear and tear on curtain edges
Style tip: Metallic or beaded tiebacks work well in classic interiors, while fabric tiebacks in the same curtain colour create a seamless flow.
The curtain track system is what makes your curtains open and close with ease. It can be hidden in a pelmet, surface-mounted, or even motorized for smart home control.
Single track: For standalone day or night curtains
Double track: For layering sheer and blackout curtains
Motorized track: For remote or voice-activated control (ideal for tall windows or convenience)
Why it matters: Poor-quality or misaligned tracks result in jamming, uneven folds, or noise. Invest in durable, rust-resistant tracks—especially for Singapore’s humid weather.
The right accessories:
Improve curtain functionality
Extend fabric lifespan by reducing friction and wear
Enhance interior design by adding dimension and flow
Increase resale appeal with a fully polished finish
