Keep three checks separate: the curtain-to-carrier connection, the track-to-site arrangement and any motor-to-control combination. Ask the relevant parties to confirm their exact products and drawings in writing. A shared brand name or a label such as smart control does not replace confirmation of the proposed combination.
| Record | What to make explicit |
|---|---|
| Track layout | Attach a labelled plan showing straight or shaped runs, proposed wall or ceiling location and the window reference. Leave fixing and support decisions to the responsible installer using the selected system's documents. |
| Heading and moving parts | List the proposed heading, hooks, gliders or carriers and end components. Ask the track and curtain makers to confirm the complete combination, including who supplies each part. |
| Opening behaviour | Record manual or motorised operation, one-way or split draw and the intended parking side. Define the viewing direction on the drawing so that left and right mean the same thing to everyone. |
| Motor and controls | For a motorised option, record exact motor, controller and any gateway references. Request the applicable power and control documents and written compatibility confirmation; do not infer it from a wireless label. |
| Safety and responsibility | Name who checks site conditions, model instructions and destination requirements. Refer cord-safety questions to official guidance and electrical questions to the appropriate local professional; keep unresolved items visible. |
Take this into your next conversation.
- Use one drawing reference for the curtain and track packages.
- Obtain a parts list instead of relying on a system photograph.
- Record who confirms the motor and control pairing.
- Do not treat a completed checklist as a safety approval.
