Mirage flame retardant voile curtains overview

Mirage is a linen-effect flame retardant voile used where a lightweight, elegant sheer is required. The supplied content describes a soft touch and a fabric that drapes well, suitable for adding privacy while keeping spaces bright.

The supplied content states Mirage is inherently flame retardant and that it is machine washable on a short wash at 30°C. For certification documents and any project-specific compliance checks, please refer to the specification tab.

Mirage is offered as made to measure curtains to suit your required dimensions and heading options. This makes it suitable for both residential and contract environments where a consistent, specifiable sheer finish is needed.

Where this fits in our range

Choose Mirage when you want a linen-effect sheer with a lightweight feel and a broad colour choice. If your project requires privacy plus light control at night, consider pairing with a lining option (including blackout lining) depending on the required performance.

Best suited for

  • Privacy sheers where natural daylight is still required
  • Large runs where a lightweight voile supports easier handling and installation
  • Design schemes needing a linen-look sheer across a wider colour palette
  • Curtains specified as made to measure for consistent finish across openings

Who uses Mirage flame retardant voile

Mirage can be specified anywhere a flame retardant sheer is required and the project needs light transmission with added privacy. Typical contract environments include hospitality and other public-facing interiors where voile curtains are used as privacy sheers.

As a made-to-measure curtain option, Mirage supports consistent presentation across multiple windows and elevations. For compliance documentation and care guidance, use the specification tab.

Further Information

Our curtain fabrics are selected and checked for quality issues and then we cut and measure everything by hand

In our UK based workrooms we continue the traditions of master curtain makers and offer the very best curtains that are British Made Specification

Our curtains are manufactured with various fullness's to suit our customer's requirements. For standard made to measure curtains, they are manufactured with 2x fullness also known as 100% fullness. This means that you get beautifully pleated curtains

Please see the further information section about curtain fullness

When manufacturing curtains we join widths of the curtain material to get the required width to cover your curtain track. Example a track width of 140cm in a single curtain would have circa 2 widths of material in assuming the material is 140cm wide. Widths are rounded up to the nearest full width. This means there will be a joining seam in larger curtains.

 

 

Our curtains are delivered pulled and hooked. So the curtains are pleated to your track widths and folded neatly for delivery. The hooks have been inserted so all you have to do is clip them into your track or pole.

    Review

    Last year we ordered FineLine curtain tracks from Direct Fabrics and found the company to be exemplary. The tracks are in fact as easy to bend and fit as the video suggests! Four weeks ago we ordered Voile curtains for the track and they arrived in less than three weeks. Now mounted and a perfect fit and finish. The company replies swiftly to emails (thank you Alana) and basically does everything right. Why go anywhere else?

How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.



Pen and Paper

For recording your
measurements.

Helper

Someone to assist if your
windows are large .

Metal Tape Measure

As this will allow you to get a
rigid full length measurement.





Make sure your curtain tracks and poles are fitted in the position you want.


Choose the type of curtains that you would like and how you want to hang your curtains. See our heading styles guide


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

 

Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement

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

Double / Triple check your measurements

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
