Steps for Installing Metal Coil Drapery

The installation of metal coil drapery typically requires a complete track system and accessories, including track, pulley, mounting screws, fixing chains, track end caps, and suspension brackets. The entire installation process consists of four steps: first, secure the pulleys; second, install the track; third, seal the track; and fourth, complete the installation. For each step, which accessories are required, and how should they be used correctly? Please refer to the accessory images on the right along with the detailed step-by-step instructions below to easily master the installation process.

Accessories required for installing metal coil drapery

Accessories

Step 1: Secure the Pulleys.

Starting from one side of the metal coil drapery, insert the screw through the mesh opening, then sequentially attach the pulley metal ring and chain. Tighten the nut to secure the pulley. Install a pulley approximately every 15 cm, and secure a chain point every 10 cm to evenly control the pleating effect of the drapery. Repeat these steps until all pulleys are installed, ensuring the drapery slides smoothly and maintains a neat appearance.

Step 2: Install the Track.

First, hook the suspension bracket onto the edge of the track, then press the other end into the track to secure it. Next, seal one end of the track and install the end cap to prevent the pulleys from sliding out. Finally, slide the pulleys connected to the metal coil drapery into the track one by one to complete the track installation and prepare for hanging the drapery.

Step 3: Seal the Track

After the pulleys have been installed, attach the track end cap to the opposite end of the track and tighten the screws on the end cap to securely fasten it to the end of the track. Depending on your requirements, you may choose whether to connect the fixing chain to the end cap. If you need the drapery to remain stationary, secure the chain to the end cap for positioning. If you want the drapery to move freely, there is no need to fix the chain; the pulley will naturally remain on one side of the track, allowing for flexible operation.
