Pleat Styles

Pinch Pleat

Pinch pleat style is named for the pleated look created by pinched gatherings of the fabric at the top of the curtain track. Pins on the back of the curtain track are simply looped through the carriers on the track when installed. For the best system performance, a curtain track hook setting of ½ in. (13 mm) from the top of the curtain track should be used.

Ripplefold

Ripplefold style is named for the soft, consistent ripples created by the curtain track as it hangs from the track. The curtain track is constructed with Graber snap tape that allows it to be snapped directly to the carriers on the track. Fullness of the curtain track is determined by the spacing of the carriers in the track. Lutron ripplefold tracks are available in 3 fullness factors: 80%, 100% and 120%.

Track Options
 

Straight Track

The straight track system is available in the following configurations:
  • Single or dual track
  • Right draw, left draw, center draw, and tandem systems (center draw)
  • Standard single track with lengths up to 18 ft (5.5 m); up to 30 ft (9 m) spliced; up to 60 ft (27 m) for spliced, tandem systems

Curved Track

Curved tracks are available in a standard arc or by custom specifications.
  • All Lutron curtain track drives will accommodate a single curve or bend; D145 or D175 drives are required for tracks with double curves or bends
  • Standard arc: 90° bend with 20 in. (0.5 m) radius
  • Custom: up to 90° bends are possible; curved radius must be 20 in. (0.5 m) or greater
  • Center draw and single draw versions are available

Draw Styles

The draw style of your curtain track is the direction in which the curtain tracks open. The draw style determines where the stack back of the curtain track will lay. Consider your application carefully when selecting a draw style.

Right Draw

The drive is located on the right-hand side, and the carrier opens curtain track from the left toward the right. (Drive remains hidden behind the stack back.)

Left Draw

The drive is located on the left-hand side, and the carrier opens curtain track from the right toward the left. (Drive remains hidden behind the stack back.)

Center Draw

One drive uses two carriers to open the curtain tracks from the center to the left and right simultaneously. (Drive can be located on the left or right, right side shown, while remaining hidden behind the stack back.)

Tandem System

Tandem systems use 2 tracks, thereby having a drive unit at each end. This allows for longer, center draw systems (over 30 ft (9 m)), or for center draw systems to operate heavier curtain tracks. The accuracy of movement and speed control of Lutron curtain track track drives allow 2 independent systems to work in unison for elegant, smooth movement. Spliced, tandem systems have a maximum 60 ft (27 m) length.

Track Splicing
Track Splicing is a convenient option for the shipment and installation of long curtain track tracks. It allows for a curtain track track to be shipped in 2 or 3 equal sections, and easily connected at the job site. This allows for:
  • Longer standard track lengths of up to 30 ft (9 m)
  • Shorter packaging and easier transportation of tracks to and on the job site

Manual Open feature
The curtain track system is available with a manual open carrier for curtain track fabric panels weighing up to 70 lbs (32 kg). When manual force is applied to the curtain track the master carrier releases, allowing the curtain track to open.

The Lutron patented spring release system is field-adjustable to customise force necessary to manually open curtain track. The benefits of this option include:
  • Open curtain tracks during a power loss
  • Prevent damage to the system if a user attempts to pull open the curtain track, not realising that the track is motorised
