We only warrant bonded pelmets to a maximum size of 3500mm wide. Our maximum single Pelmet length is 4800mm. All pelmets exceeding this will be made in two equal halves.

If Pelmet are wider than the fabric width, the fabric will be wing joined with a centre panel, otherwise you need to specify if you would like you pelmet railroaded.

Bonded Pelmets provide a softer look over your blinds. The bonded pelmets are the next best thing to Padded Pelmets but more economical.
