Which curtains should be Roman rods or slide rails?
?Roman rod: highly decorative
The Roman rod is a horizontal rod for hanging curtains. It is fixed horizontally above the window. The rod is covered with a ring, and the ring connects the curtain and the rod. The shape of the column head is decorative and comes in various styles. The curtain rod is usually exposed directly for decoration.
Advantages:
(1) The Roman pole is an open pole, which can be installed directly exposed and looks very beautiful without being used as a curtain box.
(2) Stigma styles are diverse and elegant in shape.
(3) Easy to install and disassemble.
Tips: If you are not making a suspended ceiling or curtain box, choose to use Roman rods to improve the aesthetics.
Disadvantages:
(1) It can only be installed on a straight pole, which will expose a long pole. It cannot be bent when encountering a corner window.
(2) Roman rods are not recommended for curtains with limited load-bearing capacity and heavy materials.
(3) When opening and closing the curtains for a long time, it is easy to cause jamming.
Slide rails: Variable tracks
Slide rails are installed on the top and use pulleys to connect the curtains and rods. The curtains are smooth to open and easy to use, and they are hidden in the curtain box and are very beautiful. Materials include nano tracks, aluminum alloy tracks, etc.
Advantages:
(1) The shape of the track is changeable and can be bent at will when encountering a corner window.
(2) The price is relatively cheap.
(3) When opening and closing the curtains, it is smooth and not easy to get stuck.
(4) If electric curtains are installed, they must be made into sliding rails and cannot be made into Roman rods.
Disadvantages:
It needs to be hidden by a curtain box. If there is no curtain box to block it, it will not look good if it is exposed to the outside.
Tips: When installing slide rail curtains, prepare the curtain box ceiling in advance to increase the aesthetics.
