Shower Rail - Track

Hamish453

Hello,

Just moved into my new flat and was all set to hang the new shower curtain (something easy that i can do myself, hooray!) when I get stumped by the rail around the bath... It is a track curtain rail, when I have the following (similar) hookless curtain:

(cant put in links sorry!)

Do I have to get a special shower curtain for this rail? And if so, any ideas where from? Or can i just hang the above on it anyway?

Apologies if this is a super daft question, have never had a shower curtain before!!

Thanks :-)

you need something to connect your curtain holes to the existing shower rail. Are there any existing hooks? If not you could use some of those large paperclips or curtain pole hooks, or indeed get the proper shower curtain"

Is your rail something like this?

If so, you will find the eyelet holes in the curtain probably will not fit too well onto the hooks.

Your options are to either make loops of some nice cord through the eyelets and hang the loops on the hooks, or buy a curtain with small, flat holes at the top.

If the hooks are missing, you should be able to buy some, but you could just use the loops tied direct to the runners. Not so convenient for taking the curtain down to wash though.

Nip in Tesco and get one of their £1 shower curtains - has small holes so should work fine with the hooks on your rail.
