Custom Double Curtains for Sydney Homes

Select coordinated or contrasting neutral fabrics on a double track, with each layer able to move independently. Opal helps select suitable fabrics, plans the heading style and arranges professional installation.

Two layers, one window
Day and night flexibility for bedrooms and living rooms
A sheer layer diffuses daylight and preserves an outward view, while a lined or blockout layer closes for night-time privacy and darkness, so one window can respond to how the room is used across the day.
Day & Night Control
Day and night flexibility in one layered treatment, with each layer moving independently.
Visual Depth
Greater visual depth and a premium furnished finish at the window.
Added Comfort
An additional fabric layer at the glass for thermal and acoustic comfort.
Why choose Opal
Advice shaped around your windows—not a one-size-fits-all package
Double curtain installations depend on accurate fabric pairing, double-track selection, stack allowance and mounting position so both layers hang and fold cleanly without crowding.
Compare samples in the light and interior they will actually live in.
Each opening is assessed for fit, coverage and a clean visual line.
We explain privacy, glare and stacking trade-offs clearly.
Your curtains are fitted and checked, with aftercare available if needed.
Fabric guide
Choose the fabrics, heading style and double track
Sheer Layer
A translucent sheer nearest the glass softens daylight and provides daytime privacy.
Blockout or Lined Layer
A lined or blockout outer layer closes for night-time privacy, darkness and added comfort.
Double Tracks & Pelmets
A double track carries both layers, and a pelmet can conceal hardware and reduce top light leakage.
Convenient control
Motorised double curtains
Motorisation suits wide tracks or hard-to-reach windows, and selected track systems can motorise one or both layers so each can be operated independently by remote, wall control or a compatible smart-home system.
We will discuss power access, control preferences and suitable motor options during your consultation.

Helpful answers
Double Curtains FAQs
Which layer sits closest to the window?
The sheer commonly sits nearer the glass with the blockout toward the room, though design requirements can vary.
Do double curtains need a pelmet?
Not always, but a pelmet can conceal tracks and reduce top light leakage.
Can both layers be motorised?
Selected track systems can motorise one or both layers subject to span and power.
How much stack space do double curtains need?
Two layers need more stack than a single curtain; we calculate the allowance before manufacture so openings stay clear.
Can double curtains be ceiling mounted?
Yes. Ceiling mounting creates a clean architectural line and can make the room feel taller.
Should the two fabrics match?
Either approach works. Coordinated neutrals give a calm, unified look, while a contrast adds depth and definition.
What colours are popular?
Warm white, ivory, linen-look and pale taupe are popular, versatile choices that suit most interiors.
How much do custom double curtains cost?
Pricing depends on window width, both fabrics, heading style, double track and installation. A measure and quote provides a clear project-specific price.
