Curtain lining plays an essential role in enhancing the functionality of curtains and can provide many benefits.
A good quality lining can protect your curtains, furniture and flooring from sunlight and UV rays, which can cause fading and damage over time. It can also provide an extra layer of insulation by trapping air between the lining and curtain, keeping the room warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, which can help you save on your energy bills. A lining can improve privacy and comfort by blocking out more light and reducing outside noise.
When it comes to choosing a lining, it’s important to keep in mind that some fabrics are recommended to have a lining while others may not need it. Heavier fabrics tend to benefit from a lining as they tend to be more prone to damage and can lose their shape over time without proper support. On the other hand, sheer fabrics can benefit from a separate lining if you want to maintain the transparency of the fabric while still providing some level of privacy.

Attached Linings
When you choose custom curtains, you have the option of having a lining permanently attached to the back of your curtain fabric. This creates a polished, all-in-one finish that not only looks neat but also enhances the performance of your curtains.
An attached lining adds valuable benefits such as improved thermal insulation, better light control, and increased durability, helping to protect your curtain fabric from fading caused by sunlight. Because the lining is sewn directly to the curtain, it makes installation simple, reduces bulk on the track, and ensures your curtains drape beautifully. This option is ideal if you’re after a streamlined solution that balances style with practicality.

Back Track Linings
Another option is to install your lining on a separate track, allowing it to operate independently of sheer curtains. This double track setup gives you more flexibility and control over light, temperature and appearance.
Sheer curtains are gorgeous and provide a delicate light filter, as well as daytime privacy, reduced glare and protection of your furniture and flooring. While this is wonderful during warmer months, it isn’t ideal on colder nights. Putting a curtain with thermal properties on the track behind the sheer will provide you with insulation, night-time privacy and dim-out or blockout features.
A double track is particularly useful in bedrooms, media rooms, or large living spaces where you want the freedom to adjust light, privacy, and style to suit the time of day and your lifestyle.
