🧵 About Our Curtains
Q: What types of curtains do you offer?
We specialize in made-to-measure curtains, including those for apex windows, angled windows, bay windows, and skylights. Our collection includes blackout, thermal, sheer, and fully lined options.
Q: Do you provide curtains for apex or angled windows?
Yes! Apex Curtains is a specialist in custom solutions for angled and apex windows. Every curtain is tailored to your window’s unique shape and size.
Q: Can I choose my own fabric and color?
Absolutely. We offer a wide range of premium fabrics, textures, and colors. You can also request free fabric swatches to see how they look in your space.
Q: Do apex curtains hang down vertically?
Curtains for apex windows (also called triangular or gable windows) typically do not hang down vertically in the traditional sense. Due to the window’s angled shape, curtains may follow the sloped line of the frame or be custom-fitted to enhance the architectural design. Some setups use angled tracks or shaped rods to match the window’s form, creating a tailored look.
Q: What is the best fabric to use for curtains on an apex window?
Choosing the right fabric depends on your style, privacy needs, and how much light you want to let in. Here are some top options:
- Sheer & Voile – For an airy, light-filled look with soft privacy.
- Linen – A natural, textured option that balances elegance and breathability.
- Cotton – Durable, easy to maintain, and available in various styles.
- Silk – Luxurious and eye-catching, best used where moisture and sunlight are limited.
- Polyester Blends – Cost-effective and low-maintenance, mimicking natural fibers.
- Blackout Fabrics – Ideal for bedrooms or media rooms where you need total darkness.
Each fabric can be custom-cut to suit the unique angles of an apex window while aligning with your decor.

Q: How do you open a window with curtains on an apex?
Opening an apex window with curtains can vary depending on the window and curtain style. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Clear the Area – Remove objects that may block access to the window.
- Adjust Curtains – If curtains are on a rod, slide them aside. If tied back, release the tiebacks to allow movement.
- Open the Window – Operate the window as usual (e.g., turn handle, push, or slide).
- Secure Curtains – Use holdbacks or tiebacks to keep curtains in place, especially during breezy conditions.
- Close the Window – Once done, close and secure the window.
If curtains regularly obstruct your access, consider custom-fitted treatments or top-fixed styles that allow greater clearance.
