Grommet Drapery
Suitable fabrics: Medium weight fabrics such as cottons, linens and silks. Sheers can be used if banded at the top with medium weight fabric.
- Grommet drapes function (opens and closes) well with a baton for most window sizes.
- Rod diameter needs to be less than or equal to 1-3/8″.
- Not recommended as a one way draw for sliders or windows over 48″ (center support required over 48″).
- Treatment does not return to the wall; there will be a slight gap between drapery and wall allowing light to enter the room from the sides.
- Stripes and directional patterns may need special attention and handling.
- Sheers can be used if banded at top with a medium drapery weight fabric. Grommets will be placed in the band.
- Silk fabrics should always be interlined.
