Wave curtain runners are the small carriers that run inside the track and hold a wave curtain. They are linked at a fixed distance, and that distance sets the size of every fold. Close spacing gives tight, compact waves; wide spacing gives deep, relaxed ones.

Runners are priced by length or roll; ask for current pricing. With made-to-measure curtains from Pak Home, the hardware is already included in the curtain price. Ask for a figure through Pak Middle East.
Can I buy wave curtain runners without buying curtains?
Yes. Runners are supplied on rolls to workrooms and for replacements. Tell the team whether you want supply only or supply and fitting. Order through Pak Middle East.
How do wave runners attach to the curtain?

Which tracks do wave runners fit?
Pak Home's aluminium curtain track and the electric curtain track. See the aluminium track at Pak Middle East.
Are wave curtain runners included with your curtains?

Who fits wave curtain runners in Dubai?

Do you sell wave runner tape on rolls?
Yes, for workrooms, with the runners already set at the chosen spacing. Order via Pak Middle East.
Why do wave runners matter more than fabric?
Every fold is exactly the runner spacing wide, so the runners decide what the wave looks like. See wave curtains at Pak Middle East.
Are wave curtain runners in stock?
They're supplied on rolls set at your chosen spacing. Same-day supply or fitting isn't guaranteed, so share your deadline with Pak Middle East.
How do I know if wave curtain runners will fit my curtains or track?
They clip onto wave tape press studs and run in Pak Home's aluminium and electric curtain tracks. Send a clear photo of your track, heading or existing part to Pak Middle East.
Can I see different wave spacings side by side?
Yes, at a free home visit. Book with Pak Middle East.
What colour are the wave runners?
The wave runners are white, to sit discreetly inside the track. Ask via Pak Middle East.
Do wave runners work with motorised tracks?
Yes, they run in the electric curtain track. See it at Pak Middle East.
Can wave curtain runners be delivered in the UAE?
With made-to-measure curtain orders, delivery and fitting are included. For wave curtain runners on their own, confirm delivery or collection and whether you need fitting when you order, anywhere in the seven emirates. Check your area at Pak Middle East.
Can I mix runner brands with my tape?
It's the usual cause of a wave curtain pulling unevenly; tape, runners and track should match. Ask via Pak Middle East.
Which spacing suits sheer wave curtains?
It depends on the drop and look; the team recommends spacing for chiffon at the visit. See wave sheers at Pak Middle East.
Do wave curtain runners come with a warranty?
For wave curtain runners: parts fitted as part of a Pak Home curtain order are covered by its 12-month warranty on tracks and stitching; for supply-only parts, ask the team to confirm cover. Read the warranty terms at Pak Middle East.
Can I replace broken wave runners?
Yes, matched to your spacing and track. Send a photo via Pak Middle East.
Can I order wave curtain runners in bulk for a project?
Yes. Wave curtain runners can be supplied in project and trade quantities for contractors, workrooms and commercial fit-outs. Share quantities and specifications with Pak Middle East.
Do wave runners suit heavy blackout?
Yes; wider spacings such as 100 mm suit heavy fabric. See wave blackout at Pak Middle East.
Can I see wave curtain runners before buying?
Yes. The team can show wave curtain runners at a free home visit alongside the fabric books, so you see them against your own window. Book it with Pak Middle East.
How many wave runners do I need?
Set by the track width and spacing; supplied as tape on rolls at the chosen pitch. Ask via Pak Middle East.
Do you fit wave curtain runners outside Dubai?
Yes, wave curtain runners are fitted in Sharjah, Ajman, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain too, with no travel charge for a measuring visit. Book with Pak Middle East.
Do wave runners make the curtain stack smaller?
Wave curtains stack neatly because every fold is the same depth; tighter spacing makes a more compact stack. See wave curtains at Pak Middle East.
Can I install wave curtain runners myself?
Workrooms can fit runner tape into a compatible track; the spacing must match the tape. If you'd rather not, the team can fit it. See the fixing service at Pak Middle East.
How do I get a quote for wave curtain runners?
Tell the team what you need — the spacing, length and track type — ideally with a photo, and say whether you want supply only or fitting. Order through Pak Middle East.

Spacing sets the wave
The runners are joined at a fixed pitch. We work with spacings from 48 mm to 100 mm:
- 48–60 mm — tight, compact waves that stack small
- 70–80 mm — the balanced choice for most windows
- 100 mm — deep, relaxed folds for tall windows and heavy fabric
How they fit together
Each runner carries a clip that snaps onto the press studs of the wave curtain tape sewn to the curtain. The runners travel in our aluminium curtain track or the electric curtain track.
Supplied on rolls
For workrooms we supply wave runner tape on rolls, with the runners already set at the chosen spacing.

Wave curtain runners: why the spacing matters
Wave curtain runners in Dubai decide what a wave curtain looks like more than the fabric does. They are the small carriers that travel inside the track, linked at a fixed distance, and every fold in the curtain is exactly that wide.
Wave runner spacing
We offer wave runner spacing from 48 mm to 100 mm. Tighter spacing, around 48 to 60 mm, gives small, neat waves and stacks the curtain into less space, which keeps more of the window clear when it is open. Around 70 to 80 mm is the balanced choice for most windows. Wider spacing, up to 100 mm, gives deep, generous folds that suit tall windows and heavy blackout fabric.
Wave curtain gliders and tape
Wave curtain gliders carry a clip that snaps onto the press studs of the wave tape sewn along the top of the curtain. The tape and the runners have to agree on spacing, which is why we supply them together; mixing makers is the usual reason a wave curtain pulls into uneven waves.
Wave track runners, manual or motorised
Our wave track runners run inside the standard aluminium curtain track and the electric curtain track alike. On a motorised track, the lead runners are attached to the internal belt and the rest follow at their fixed spacing, so the waves stay even as the curtain moves.
Supplied on rolls
For workrooms we supply runner rolls pre-set at the spacing you need, and every wave curtain we make comes with runners set to the spacing we recommend for that window.
We supply and fit wave systems across Dubai, Sharjah and the rest of the UAE, and bring the spacings to the free measuring visit so you can see the difference on your own window.
