Pelmets

Amaru's beautifully handcrafted upholstered pelmets are made in Melbourne and offer a perfectly finished and functional enhancement to your custom soft window furnishings. Adding a curtain pelmet does more than simply hide your curtain or blind fixtures; it prevents light from 'haloing' for better blockout performance and improves insulation and thermal transfer, making for a significantly more energy-efficient window treatment.

Fabric Choices

Our pelmets are fully upholstered in the fabric of your choice. Match the drapery fabric of your curtains or blinds or choose a completely different textile to add some designer contrast, the possibilities are endless.

Heading & Fixtures

Hide Heading & Fixtures

Pelmets are a neat and attractive way to hide curtain tracks and blind fixtures from view, making for a more finished and streamlined appearance.

Improved Insulation

Improved Insulation

Pelmets add a barrier to the top of a window furnishing, helping insulate the window by preventing thermal convection currents. By capping the window, ambient summer heat and winter cold are kept out.

Borders & Trim

Borders & Trim

We can help you to choose the right border, piping, banding or beaded trim to give your custom pelmet that perfect finishing touch.

Light Control

Light Control

Pelmets are essential if looking to achieve full light blackout in a room. When used with block-out drapery they prevent natural light from ‘haloing’ over the top of the window for full daytime darkness making them the perfect addition to bedroom curtains and blinds.

Energy Saving

Energy Saving

Aside from supporting your home's passive insulation, pelmets interrupt thermal convection and air transference, stopping heated or refrigerated air from escaping down the back of your curtains and blinds. So your air conditioner and heater won't have to work as hard, helping save on home energy costs.

FAQs about Pelmets

Where is the pelmet fitted?

Pelmets are best fitted above your window or on the face of the architrave. Our technicians will advise which is preferable for your home as a part of our free measure and quote service.

Is there a maximum pelmet width?

The maximum size of a single pelmet is often governed by what length we can get into your home; ask one of our experienced consultants to find the best solution for you.

Yes, pelmets can be fitted to bay windows. Amaru can create a custom pelmet that bends to follow the curve of the wall.
