Curtains and blinds for corner and bay windows
Where windows meet at an angle, the track and the blinds have to work round the corner. This is how fitters usually handle each kind.
A corner with a post between the windows
The simplest way is to treat it as two windows: a curtain on each wall, each opening to its own end, or a blind for each pane.
Two blinds meet at the post with a small gap between them.
A track that bends round the corner can also carry one curtain across both walls.
Glass meeting glass
With no post at the corner, two separate curtains would end against the glass, so one track usually bends round the corner instead. A bendable track takes one or two bends.
Rings cannot slide round a tight corner on a pole, so a track with gliders is the usual choice.
Two blinds meeting at bare glass leave a visible gap, so curtains usually suit this corner better.
A bay window
Curtains follow the bay on a track bent to its shape, with a bracket at every angle.
Leave room outside the bay for the open curtains: roughly 30 cm at each end.
Blinds go one to each pane, each measured on its own.
Measuring
For curtains, measure along where the track will run, not straight across the glass.
A fitter checks that the corner really is square before anything is cut to fit it.
Measure the height in three places: the smallest is the one that counts. How to measure
