The channel is the actual tracking that the carrier rollers slide up
and down. It comes in a standard 8' foot length and can be cut into
whatever size lengths that you need with an ordinary hack saw. It can
be attached to the ceiling using a number of methods.
- If you have a sheetrock or plaster ceiling the curtain can be
attached directly to the ceiling by drilling a hole through the track
in the desired location and running a screw into a sheetrock anchor.
You could alternativly find the ceiling joist and place a longer wood
screw through the sheetrock an into the wood ceiling joist.
- It can be attached to a grid type ceiling also known as acoustical
tiles or hanging ceilings. This can be done two ways. You can drill
a hole through the track an install a sheet metal screw directly into
the grid. If you do not want to drill holes in the ceiling grid
support you can purchase the "ceiling clips" from us that clamp onto
the grid and them the track is attached to the ceiling clips with a
screw that is provided with the ceiling clips. If you thing that you
might want to relocate the track in the future use the ceiling clips
so that you do not leave ugly holes in your ceiling grid when you move
the track.
- Truss style and/or vaulted ceilings. If the ceiling trusses are
flat you can attach the track directly to the truss with whatever
fastener best suits the application. If the trusses are uneven or if
the ceiling has a vault or pitch to it you will need to suspend the
curtain track. To do this you will need to purchase the ceiling
flanges, suspension tubes and screw inserts that we sell on this site.
These are basically a mounting flange that you mount to the ceiling
and then a tube that drops down for the curtain track to attach to.
You cut the suspension tubes off at the height that the track needs
to hang, place a screw insert into the end of the tube and then run a
screw through the track into the end of the suspension tube/screw
insert.
- Wall mount. The nylon wall mount that we sell on this site can be
used to hold the curtain track at whatever level you need and attaches
to the wall with whatever fasteners that fit your application. You
might use these wall mounts in conjunction with suspension tubes to
stabilize a suspended tracking system also by putting them where ever
the track come close enough to the wall to utilize one of them.
- The curtain tracking has also been installed inset into the
sheetrock to make a flush ultra modern look on new installations.
