Silent Gliss 1280 - Uncorded Metal Track

The Silent Gliss 1280 curtain track – the ultimate in effortless operation and durability for window dressing. While many hand-drawn curtain tracks struggle to support heavy or long-drop curtains, the Silent Gliss 1280 is engineered specifically to handle these challenges with innovative precision, making it an ideal choice for high-performance and elegant curtain solutions.

Engineered for Smooth Operation

At the core of the Silent Gliss 1280 is its unique wheeled roller glider system, positioned strategically at the front edge of the track. This advanced design reduces friction by allowing the gliders to roll smoothly along the track instead of dragging, making it incredibly easy to open and close even the heaviest of curtains. With the Silent Gliss 1280, you’ll experience an exceptional level of smoothness and ease, creating a feeling of lightness with each movement.

Sleek, Space-Saving Profile

Despite its strength, the Silent Gliss 1280 track maintains a slim profile, measuring only 17mm from top to bottom. This minimalist design makes it perfect for settings with limited clearance, fitting neatly between ceilings and windows or doors, including popular configurations such as bi-folding patio doors. The track’s sleek look combines modern aesthetics with functionality, seamlessly complementing a variety of interior styles.

Highly Versatile and Easy to Install

The Silent Gliss 1280 track is compatible with the same brackets as other Silent Gliss models, such as the 1080, 3000, and 3900. This compatibility makes it an easy upgrade for anyone with existing Silent Gliss tracks and allows for a seamless, secure installation. For those seeking complete coverage, an optional overlap arm eliminates gaps between curtains, providing a continuous, polished look with no interruptions to the curtain line.

Ideal for Bay Windows and Unique Shapes

Designed with adaptability in mind, the Silent Gliss 1280 is fully customisable for complex window shapes. Bay windows, curved configurations, and semi-circle shapes are easily accommodated, with the track capable of bending to a minimum radius of 150mm. Our team of engineers can shape the track to fit even the most intricate bay window arrangements, ensuring a tailored fit and superior functionality.
