Expectation setting: Brace is a sheer voile for privacy and soft shading. It is not blackout and will not block external light. Appearance will vary with daylight levels and how the voile is gathered.

Overview

Brace flame retardant voile curtains are designed for projects that need a lightweight privacy sheer with a linen-look finish. The wide-width construction (300cm) supports full-height curtain drops while keeping the look clean and consistent.

The supplied specification states an inherent flame retardant polyester construction and lists compliance to M1, BS 5867 Part 2 B and IMO FTP Code 2010 Part 7. Certificates and care details should be referenced from the specification tab for tender and handover documentation.

Acoustic absorption (E rating)

Acoustic absorption describes how much sound a material absorbs rather than reflecting back into the room. The provided content references testing to EN ISO 354 with grades A (highest) to E (lowest). Brace voile is stated as E-rated, which is typical for lightweight sheers.

  • Helps soften room acoustics slightly in bright, glazed areas
  • Supports layered schemes with heavier acoustic or blackout curtains
  • Maintains high light transmission for daytime spaces

Where this fits in our range

Choose Brace when you need a contract-suitable voile that prioritises light transmission and daytime privacy, with a linen-look appearance and wide-width practicality. If the project requires light reduction or blackout performance, specify a blackout or dim-out product instead of a voile.

Best suited for
  • Privacy sheers in reception areas, lounges, bedrooms and circulation spaces
  • Layering behind blackout or heavier curtains where a voile is required by day
  • Projects needing wide-width voile for tall drops

Documentation: Care instructions and flame retardant certificates (where applicable) are available in the specification tab for project files and O&M packs.

Who uses Brace flame retardant voile curtains

Suitable for commercial and contract interiors where privacy sheers are specified alongside flame retardant compliance requirements. Common applications include hospitality spaces, offices, healthcare environments and education settings where a light, clean window finish is required without blackout.

Brace is also appropriate for layered specifications, used as a voile behind heavier curtains to maintain a consistent daytime appearance while supporting night-time light control via the outer layer.

Hospitality

Privacy sheers for hotels and aparthotels where natural light is desired in daytime. Pair with blackout curtains for bedrooms where light control is required.

Healthcare & education

Light-filtering voiles for bright, shared environments that benefit from softened glare and a calm finish, while keeping spaces visually open.

We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.

Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.

how to measure for curtains



Choosing your Curtain Track Width

The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.

Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics , we recommend further to fully cover the window and the surrounding area. In our test we added an additional 30cm to the width and also made the curtain floor length.

Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm

Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width

Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%

* all dependent on thickness of fabric



Selecting your Curtain Drop

How to Measure for Blinds going Inside the Recess

How to measure for blinds inside thet recess

  • Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the  smallest size.
  • Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take the smallest size.
  • We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
  • Double check your measurements
  • Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm

How to Measure Outside of the Recess


  • Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
  • Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
  • Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
  • These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.

  • Double check your measurements
  • Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm



Cubicle Tracks you have to measure with right angles from wall to wall where you want the track to go

Draw your room on a piece of paper with a sky view

Now measure from the wall to wall for straight tracks,

L Shape Tracks Measure to a point on the floor and mark with a piece of tape. Then for the other sides measure from the other wall to that point.

Always check for obstructions and fitting issues you may need to work around
