Hangs in every way

VIDGA curtain hanging system gives you lots of possibilities to hang curtains. Hang them in front of windows and niches, or use them as room dividers, sliding doors or around a bed. If you hang curtains in layers you can not only combine colours, patterns and materials in your own personal way, but also be able to dampen sound, adjust light and control temperature in the room more effectively. You can connect several track rails together to create one long track rail, or shorten them to the desired length with a hacksaw. Mount the track rail to walls or ceilings using VIDGA wall or ceiling fittings or use VIDGA corner pieces to mount track rails around corners.

All the products (shown here) may not be available at the store. Please contact the staff or look at IKEA.ph for more information. For more detailed product information, see the pricetag and the Internet. All units require assembly.

How to plan

Planning is never easy, but getting to know VIDGA is.
You start with 1 rail and 2 fitting.

• Ceiling fittings (included) allow you to mount the rail to the ceiling – a great solution if you would like to hang the curtains away from a sticking-out window sill.
  
• Short wall fitting (sold separately) allows you to hang
  the curtains very close to the wall so the light doesn’t
  sneak in from the sides.
  
• Long wall fittings (sold separately) can hold multiple parallel rails to so you can hang layers of curtains.
  

Single track rail works well with curtains.
Like panel curtains more? Triple track rail will fit your needs.

Got a wider window? We have a solution for you.

• 1 rail and 2 fittings to start with
  
• Add 1 rail and 1 fitting (the same as you chose before).
  
• Still not long enough? Add another rail and another fitting (the same as you chose before).
  

You can also cut the rail to your measurements if the width of your window falls in between.

Want a solution to hang two layers of curtains? Or even three?
The long wall fitting enables you to do just that.

• 1 single track rail and 2 LONG WALL fittings to start with.
  
• Add 1 single track rail, no extra fittings needed.
  

Wider window and double-layer curtains?

Now you know what to do.

Single track rail works well with curtains.
Like panel curtains more? Triple track rail will fit your needs.

The rails can be cut to the desired length with a hacksaw and the VIDGA cutting box.

How to measure your window

Start by taking the measurements of your window. 

1. The width.
   This determines the width of your curtain rod or track rail.
   Measure the width of the window. a
   Add at least 15 cm on each side to the measurement a to allow the curtains to cover the window properly and open completely.
2. The height.
   This determines the length of your curtains or panel curtains.
   Measure from the top of the window frame and stop where you want your curtains or panel curtains to end. b
   As a rule of thumb, add 15 cm to the measurement b.
   Mount the curtain rod or rack rail 15 cm above the window frame.
   Add a few centimetres to allow any shrinkage of the curtains after washing.
