Question:
I am looking for a traverse rod to cover a arched top window
with traverse drapery panels. Will the Item #: 75006 Heavy Duty Flexible Curtain Track work for this
shaped window and application?
Also is this rod strong enough if the panels are going to be
80" wide 196" long?
I also have 2 straight windows on the sides, would the same
rod work for this if I do not need it to be flexible or is there a
coordinating straight rod?
Answer:
That rod is strong enough to hold the weight of
panels you are describing if enough brackets are put into something secure.
The rod is also able to be made straight. However, it is not designed to arch
in the manner in which I am thinking you are wanting to use it, which is make
it arch around the window. Yes, you can do that and hang stationary panels and
valances. The reason it would be difficult to use these as a traversing rod is
that you would be fighting against gravity in trying to pull the panels up and
then keep them. Also the length of the drapes would be an issue, as the
center part and sides of the traversing drapery panels would be at varying
heights when traversed.
