How To Hang Curtains From Ceiling to Floor | DIY | Vidga Track Rail | Silverlonn Sheer Curtains
Hi! I was not able to show in the video, we did use an expanding metal wall anchor for it to hold on the ceiling. We use a hollow wall anchor (M4x38mm). We also use a setting tool to install the anchor.
What we use:
Screw size: M4x38mm
Hollow wall anchor (M4x38mm)
Setting tool
Vidga track rail from ikea 140 cm (this comes with 2 connectors and 2 end caps)
www.ikea.com/au/en/p/vidga-tr...
- this is the longest they have. You may need to connect two of these for wider window or sliding doors.
Silverlonn curtains

Love this video thank you. Wanted to ask do your curtains touch through floor ?
Can you use any curtains with this system - thank you

I have a question. The waves of a normal curtain are wider than the track itself so how is it possible to fit three curtains? Won't everything be squished together and have no depth?
Great work my friend,

nice inyong napalit ngq curtains, dai. dali lang sad kaau pag ta-od.👍
I need only 2 rails solution on ceiling (I want 1 pair of sheers and 1pair of curtains), but ikea doesnt have such option, only these 3 rails like you have. But I am little worried about how it looks in reality and when the curtains are open - isnt it ugly when there are visible 3 "lines" (when you are standing under or near to it) ? 2 lines whould look more elegant :(

Looks great. How many curtains can you hang in the rail? Can I have one black out curtain and one shear curtain? Is it easy to remove the curtain for cleaning?

Hi! We put 4 sheer curtains. I also added 2 block out curtains now. One each side. Its easy to remove curtains, they glide smoothly. Just unscrew the encap on onr side. Make sure you leave about 2-3 inches allowance from your rail to the edge of your wall so you can still remove the encap.
Question, so the more hooks u add to the curtain the more of a pleaded look u get ????
@abitofeverything9557

Hi, each curtain has about 10 hooks you can put on, so we just follow it and use 3 curtains each window to make it more pleaded. If you want a pleaded curtain, there is a certain hook for it in ikea called RIKTIG curtain hook.
