Bedroom Curtains, Made in Ireland

A bedroom window has one job above all: letting you sleep. Streetlights, early summer sunrises and draughty glass all get between you and a good night โ€” and thin ready made curtains rarely fix any of it. Our made to measure curtains are cut for your exact window and lined for the way you sleep: blackout lining to kill the light, thermal lining to hold the heat, or interlining for both plus a fuller, heavier drape.

Choose your fabric in the Portlaoise showroom or online, then measure in minutes with our step-by-step measuring guide.

Getting Bedroom Curtains Right

Blackout, done properly

A blackout lining behind the fabric you love beats a โ€œblackout curtainโ€ in a fabric you settled for. For full darkness, extend the pole 15โ€“20cm past the frame each side so light canโ€™t sneak around the edges โ€” or add a made to measure blackout blind behind the curtains.

Warmth for Irish winters

Thermal and interlined curtains add a real layer of insulation over the glass โ€” the difference is obvious in an older house. Heavier linings also make the curtains hang fuller and quieter.

Length, with radiators in mind

Floor-length looks best โ€” but if a radiator sits under the window, go sill-length or pair dress curtains with a blind so you donโ€™t heat the back of your curtains. Our measuring guide covers both.

Bedroom Curtains โ€” Common Questions

Blackout lining, usually โ€” it lets you pick any fabric you love for the room side and still get full darkness, and it protects the face fabric from sun fade. Ready made โ€œblackout curtainsโ€ lock you into a small range of fabrics.

Yes โ€” a thermal or interlined curtain adds a genuine layer of insulation over the glass, which matters in older Irish homes with single glazing or draughty frames. You feel it most on winter nights, and heavier curtains also soften noise and hang beautifully.

Floor-length โ€” about 1cm above the floor โ€” for the fullest look and best light blocking. If a radiator sits under the window, choose sill-length or pair curtains with a blind. Our measuring guide shows exactly how to measure both.

Three fixes: extend the pole or track 15โ€“20cm past the frame each side, choose a fuller heading so the fabric overlaps the wall, and add a hard pelmet to seal the gap above the track โ€” the usual escape route for morning light.
