I have been asked by a local school to attach blackout linings to their curtains in the school hall for a school performance coming up.
There are 26 pairs of curtains, which are all hung from corded tracks around all 4 walls of the hall, which are 4m high.
My concerns now I have come home from measuring are:
* how will the blackout lining affect the weight of the curtains when opening them.
* how will they hang nobody will be able to reach the curtains so they need to move easily.
Has anybody any suggestions which I should use, I have been reading all the topics and there are various ones mentioned.
Also as the blackout will be attached to the curtains do you make the linings the same width as the curtains which are a width and a half (approx 2m) or the nearer to the width of the window which are all 2m wide.
As these are so high I am not sure my head for heights is going to enable me to get up so I will probably be reliant on my fitter.
Suggestions please.
Thanks
Michelle
