Nice one. You forget how good curtains can look. It’s all some form of blinds I usually see these days

@rhino015 Год назад

I also like the option of letting light in while still having some privacy with the sheer curtains. I tried to achieve that with dual roller blinds, I like that option. Which reminds me….I bought roller blinds that are too big for some of my windows because they were on clearance. Maybe a good idea for a video could be how to trim roller blinds down to size

@billshowto Год назад

Trim the length or width?

@rhino015 Год назад

@@billshowto to trim the width

@leannelollypop1869 Год назад

Spotlight will trim the width down to size for a fee per blind. I did mine myself. Cut the inner tube with a hack saw. Trimmed the blind material with sharp dress making scissors. Very hard to cut straight. Spotlight have a machine that brings it out perfect.

@rhino015 Год назад

@@leannelollypop1869 I did hear about spotlight doing it and asked and they said they only do it for blinds you buy there. And they didn’t do it on site where I live. Same with Bunnings, they will trim some for you via an order form but it’s only a couple of the brands they sell and they basically just order them in cut to the size elsewhere. I did 1 blind cutting the tube with an angle grinder and laying the blind fully out on a table and cutting it against a 1.8m level with a scalpel. But had to shift it along the table a couple times and it’s tough to get straight

Hey Bill, I would love a video on how to hang a curtain from the ceiling. I have a room I want to hang a curtain at the entrance. Room is approximately 3.2mtr wide.

@stevec7435 Год назад

Love your work mate👌🏼. I find your videos more helpful than any others on RU-vid 👍🏻. I was wondering if you might be able to do a video on running Ethernet cable through walls cause my boys want them for gaming and I'm not 100% sure on how to go about it

@hismusicnme 11 месяцев назад

I’d love to see how the hook looked on the back of the curtains and how you got those to look so nicely waved and evenly spaced.

Thanks for the vid. I appreciate you! Just wondering where you got those blinds and sheers, they are lovely.

Same question here I’m going to spotlight next week see if there’s any sheers like that 😊

@wishpeacefulintheworld3881 Год назад

Not far away from Melbourne. Got quote from curtain shop. For 3.2m slding door, If we install curtain plus sheer about $3000. Sheer with roller blinds about $2000😂😂😂

@productsreview31 6 месяцев назад

Amazing..please, where did you buy the curtains from and the tracks from? They look lovely..

@jamieg2628 23 дня назад

@billshowto Is there a rule of thumb of how far underneath the cornice you need to go? Or can you go right off the bottom of it? Thanks, great video mate!

@lecy2000 11 месяцев назад

What brand of tracks have you used? Thank you!!

@saeed1507 24 дня назад

Thanks for your video. May I ask where did you got the tracks, sheer and blinds from? What brand are they?

@danielthiele3351 Год назад

Can you trim or connect the curtain tracks? In my case we want to mount curtains on double sliding doors which measure 4.2m wide and the tracks only come in 2.2m. Appreciate your videos they have been extremely helpful.

@billshowto Год назад

Depends on the make, usually you can👍

@blakecarter7868 8 месяцев назад

Where did u get those brackets

@giovannichua1871 Год назад

Can you still do this on a steel frame house? I had trouble putting screws in the steel stud behind the gyprock..

@billshowto Год назад

You can, just need to use metal screws not timber.

@riz1431 Месяц назад

Where to buy these ?

@christinebridgman9148 9 месяцев назад

Did you cut the string in the tracks in the middle so that the curtains open from the middle? In my curtain rod, the string goes the whole way across so my curtains are opening from one side only

@billshowto 9 месяцев назад

No, don’t cut the string. These are specifically made to split from the middle.

Is the railing screwed directly into brick wall? If so what screw do you use?

@billshowto Год назад

This was screwed into the studs👍

@jamieg2628 22 дня назад

Hey mate, would I be ok drilling these straight into the wall under the cornice, using green wall plugs?

@billshowto 21 день назад

Unfortunately not. Curtains are generally pretty heavy and should be installed into studs or other solid surface

@jamieg2628 21 день назад

@@billshowto we’ve got a 4.2m wall to hang sheers / curtains on. On this space we’ve weighed it as about 8kg’s worth of curtains and there’s 12 brackets in the wall. Confident in that holding it or would you not be?

@jamieg2628 21 день назад

I’m in Australia so it’s into gyprock walls

@billshowto 21 день назад

the weight will fluctuate depending on where they are all stacked most of the time and during operation. At 4.2m you will have approximately half of the brackets going into studs. If half go into studs just make sure you use a good wall anchor that can carry weight for the rest. 👍

@billshowto 21 день назад

Well that makes life easier, you can use wall mate anchors that hold approximately 20kg each or there’s another brand at bunnings ( can’t remember the name) that look like a 20 cent piece that can hold up to 50kg but a bit of a pain to install.

@purple9rain Месяц назад

You were saying we have a stud here in the wall, what is that? Thanks

I love how it's so common in NZ to call your audience "guys". There was once a gathering in Los Angeles of the local liberal party to hammer out that years talking points. Hilariously, someone said "guys" and the meeting devolved for hours into a debate on pronouns and misgendering! Great use of funds to rent a hall and rabble about gender pronouns!😅
