Eyelet curtains
Rings on a pole, drawn by hand
Made to measure in our workshop
Price on visit
If you open the living-room curtains by hand, eyelet curtains suit that window in a Dubai home. The pole passes through the rings, and the curtain slides off the same way. A motor needs a curtain made for a track. We come for a free home visit to measure each window, then sew each curtain in our own workshop.

An even count
If one edge of a curtain juts into the room, count its rings: an odd number leaves that edge on the room side.
Equal gaps between rings
Each gap between rings becomes a fold, so an uneven gap shows from across the room.
A stiffened band
A firm band sewn behind the rings keeps the top upright, so the fabric doesn't sag between them.
That pole can take eyelet curtains with no new holes, if the rings fit round it; the visit settles that. A new pole means drilling: every bracket we fit is screwed in, and we don't fit no-drill systems. When you move, the curtains slide off and the pole stays.
No cord or chain hangs within a child's reach: the curtain slides by hand. Blackout lining keeps the June sunrise, around 5:30 am, from shining through the cloth. A blind fitted to the window frame stops the light that would show above the pole.
Sewn to the drop we measure from your pole, an eyelet curtain reaches the floor where shop sizes stop short. With most of our fabrics now 280 to 320 cm wide, a drop of that height needs no join across it. On double-height glass, though, that much fabric is hard to pull by hand; a ceiling track runs more easily.
If the hem is deep, letting it down is the simplest fix. If not, add a band of fabric, or lower the pole, though more light shows above it. We alter curtains you already own, so send us a photo of the hem on WhatsApp; alterations take 3 to 5 working days.
Floor-length, on tall glass
Eyelet curtains need a pole and some wall beside the window where the open curtain can rest. Four windows need more: a bedroom kept dark after sunrise, a wide door walled on one side, an existing ceiling track, and glass from wall to wall.

Three curtain headings
| Your window | Eyelets? | Why | What suits instead |
|---|---|---|---|
| Living or dining room | Yes | Opened and closed by hand | Nothing else needed |
| Bedroom slept in after sunrise | With a blind behind | Light shows above the pole | A wave heading on a ceiling track |
| Wide sliding door, wall on one side only | Not as one curtain | Rings can't pass the pole's centre bracket | A track, for one curtain across |
| Track already in a ceiling recess | Only on a new pole | Rings don't run on a track | A heading made for that track |
| Glass from wall to wall | No | Open folds still cover glass | A Roman or roller blind |
Fabric and lining follow the light you want; rings and brackets follow the pole and wall. We supply the pole with the curtains, and the rings come in a finish to match it.
A sheer on eyelets
Keeps daylight; blurs the view in by day, less after dark.
Like linen or cotton, in rounder folds.
Blackout-lined, at midday
Daylight glows through; strong sun fades the fabric over time.
Hangs fuller; the lining shields your fabric from the sun.
The cloth stops daylight; gaps around it still let some in.
Five ring finishes
Plastic rings in a metallic finish, matched to a pole of the same colour.
The same plastic in a plain colour, for a black or white pole.
Stack on the glass
Stack past the frame
Where the open curtain rests
Into the wall, with the pole longer than the window on each side.
Into the ceiling, where the glass reaches the top.
An eyelet pole needs a wall that holds its screws, rings that suit damp air and, in a rented flat, a clear answer on drilling.
Most fabrics take eyelets, from a sheer on a pole to heavier linen, and the curtains page compares the other headings. Where the curtain must run on a track, a wave heading suits better; for upright, formal folds, look at pleated headings.
Where a bedroom must stay dark, blackout curtains on a ceiling track close the gap a pole leaves. A curtain a motor can draw is sewn for a track from the start. Changing the heading on curtains you have can move them from a pole to a track.
Near a cooker, eyelet panels for a kitchen window must hang clear of the heat. Our guide to curtain sizes lists what to measure before the visit.
A long pole's centre bracket
Yes, as an estimate. Measure across the window, then down from where the pole will sit. The calculator multiplies width × height by 2.5, an eyelet heading's fullness, and prices that fabric per m² with making and fitting included. Your final price follows the free home visit's measurements and the fabric you choose.

Width × height × fullness gives the fabric; it is charged on 6 m² at least.
The final price depends on the fabric or material you choose and the measurements we take at the free home visit.

The Curtains Dubai measures your windows at a free home visit, makes your eyelet curtains in its own workshop, and hangs them.
Threaded on the pole
List the rooms, and any date the curtains must be up by. If there's a pole on the wall, a photo of its end helps us match the rings. Home visits run Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 7 pm.
We come anywhere in Dubai and take the width, then the drop from where the pole will sit, at every window. Our fabric samples come with us, to hold up against your glass.
A deposit confirms the order. We stitch every curtain to the sizes we took and press the rings in last, and fitting follows 3 working days after approval. Big or complicated jobs take longer.
Brackets go up, then the pole, with the curtains threaded on. Open and close each curtain yourself while the fitter is there. The free home visit decides where the pole sits and how far each curtain falls.
Anything else, ask on the phone: 050 257 7765
At The Curtains Dubai, eyelet curtains start at 50 per m² of fabric, making and fitting included, and the fabric you choose sets the final price. A 2 × 3 m window takes 15 m² of fabric, so its estimate starts at 750. Ask any company quoting per panel or per window to price the pole and fitting separately.
Not by themselves. The fabric and pole set the style of eyelet curtains far more than the rings do: a plain weave on a slim pole looks informal. For a more formal room, pleated or wave headings hang in more regular folds.
Yes, within limits. A clip-on opener made for poles can draw a light eyelet curtain and needs no fitter, though we don't supply or fit them. A standard motor track can't carry eyelets, so a heavier curtain needs a track heading in place of its eyelets, which usually costs some length.
A blind behind the curtain or a box over the pole clears most of the light above eyelet curtains. The blind stops it at the glass; the box closes the top. If the room is slept in after sunrise, a curtain on a ceiling-fixed track does better.
Often, if the care label allows it. An eyelet curtain's fabric, lining and the stiffened band behind its rings can each react to water differently. Getting one off is quick: take the pole down and slide the curtain off its end, with no hooks to unclip. We don't clean curtains ourselves.
Every eyelet curtain we make has a 2-year warranty on the stitching and making, and 2 years on our workmanship when we fit it. Sun fading isn't covered. When comparing quotes, ask each how long a ring pulling out of the heading, or a bracket working loose, is covered.
