What are wave curtains?
Wave curtains are curtains with a heading that forms a continuous, even S-shaped fold along the whole width, held in shape by a wave track. Instead of pleats gathered at the top, the fabric flows in regular ripples from one end to the other, whether the curtain is open or closed.
The look is calm and architectural, which is why wave curtains are so common in Dubai's newer apartments, from Downtown to Dubai Marina, and in villas with long runs of glass. Because wave is a heading style rather than a fabric, you can have wave sheers, lined wave blackouts, or both layered on a double track.
Benefits
Why Choose Wave Curtains
A clean, uniform line
Every fold matches the next, giving a tidy, contemporary look that suits minimal interiors and modern apartments.
Made for wide glass
The continuous fold keeps the same rhythm across long, wide and floor-to-ceiling windows, so a full wall of glass looks finished.
Tidy open or closed
When drawn back, the fabric gathers into the same even folds, so the window looks neat at any time of day.
Works with every curtain type
Choose wave sheers, wave blackouts, or layered wave curtains with a sheer and a blackout on a double track.
Wave track included
The wave track and installation by our own team are part of your quotation, with 5% VAT already included.

Curtain types
Wave sheers
Unlined voile or linen-look sheers in soft, even folds. Bright, with privacy by day.

Lined to block light and reduce heat from the sun, with the same clean fold.
Layered wave
A sheer and a blackout on a double track, both falling in matching waves.
Fabrics
Voile
The lightest, most translucent choice; it gives wave sheers a soft, floating look.
Linen and linen-look weaves
Natural texture that suits villas and relaxed, modern interiors.
Velvet
Gives deep, sculpted waves and a richer look in bedrooms and media rooms.
Plain and textured weaves
Plain for a crisp minimal finish, textured for extra depth in each fold.

Wave or pinch pleat: what is the difference?
The difference is the heading. Wave curtains form one continuous, even S-fold along a wave track, while American pleat curtains are gathered into classic pinch-pleated folds at the top. Wave reads modern and relaxed; pinch pleat reads tailored and traditional.
- Wave: even ripples from top to bottom, suits minimal rooms and wide glass
- American pleat: structured folds at the top, suits formal rooms and traditional villas
- Both: available as sheer, blackout or layered, and both can be motorized
Which windows suit wave curtains best?
Wave curtains suit wide windows and full walls of glass best, because the repeating fold looks most striking over a long run. They also work well in smaller bedrooms where you want a quiet, uncluttered finish.
In high-rise apartments with skyline views, wave sheers soften the glass without fussing up the view. In villas, a ceiling-mounted wave track lets curtains run floor to ceiling for a taller, more open feel.
Should wave curtains be sheer, blackout or layered?
Pick by room: wave sheers for living areas where you want light, wave blackouts for bedrooms and media rooms, and layered wave curtains for rooms that need both. The fold looks the same across all three, so you can mix types around the home while keeping one consistent style.

Questions
Wave Curtains: Your Questions Answered
Anything else, ask us on WhatsApp.
How much do wave curtains cost in Dubai?
Wave curtains cost AED 1,010 in sheer, AED 1,550 in blackout or AED 2,230 layered, for a 300 × 300 cm window. Prices include the wave track, installation by our own team and 5% VAT. Your final price depends on window sizes and fabric, and a free home visit gives you one written quotation for every window.
What is a wave curtain track?
A wave track is the track that holds a wave curtain in its continuous, even S-fold, so the ripples stay regular whether the curtain is open or closed. It is included in your quotation and fitted by our own team, so there is nothing to buy or install separately.
Are wave curtains better than pinch pleat curtains?
Neither is better; they suit different rooms. Wave curtains give a modern, flowing S-fold and suit minimal interiors and wide glass. American pleat, our pinch pleat heading, gives a tailored, classic look for more formal rooms. Our consultant brings samples of both so you can compare them at your window.
Can wave curtains be blackout?
Yes. Wave blackout curtains are lined to block light and reduce heat from the sun, while keeping the same even S-fold as wave sheers. They work well in bedrooms and media rooms.
How long do wave curtains take to install?
Delivery is estimated at 2-4 days after you approve your quotation, and our team fits the wave track and hangs the curtains on the day of delivery. There is no separate trip for the track: everything goes up in one installation visit.
Who measures the windows for wave curtains?
Our consultant does, at a free home visit. They bring fabric samples, measure every window and give you one written quotation, with no charge and no obligation. If you are planning a ceiling-mounted track, mention it so the full height can be measured.
Can wave curtains be installed without drilling in a rented apartment?
In most cases, yes. Drill-free fixings are possible for many rented homes, and the consultant will recommend fixings that suit your tenancy. Tell us you rent when you book, and the options are checked at the window during the home visit.
Can wave curtains be motorized?
Yes. A motor is a flat add-on of AED 1,000 per track and covers the motor, power supply and wiring, pairing to a remote and the phone app, and fitting on the same visit. Motorized wave curtains can open and close on a schedule. A mains-powered motor needs a power point near one end of the track.
Do wave curtains work in a small bedroom?
Yes. Wave curtains give a quiet, uncluttered finish that suits smaller rooms, and a ceiling-mounted track can make the room feel taller. For a bedroom, choose wave blackout or layered wave curtains so you get darkness for sleep as well as the clean look.
