Custom Inverted Box Pleat drapery for your space
This structured heading suits both contemporary and traditional rooms. The tailored front gives the fabric a prominent role, while the folds add depth behind the heading.
Use compatible rod rings or track carriers with drapery hooks. Hardware and hook positions determine the hanging point and clearance.
Measure the usable rod or track width and the finished drop from the hanging point. Tell us whether the panels open from the center or stack to one side, and include any return or overlap requirements.

From a single panel to a coordinated room, we help bring the details together. Send us photographs, measurements or plans through the design consultation form. We can discuss fabric samples, custom designs and local measurement and installation options.
Drapery questions, answered
Which heading should I choose?
Choose the appearance you prefer, then check compatibility with your rod or track. Pleated drapery generally uses rings or carriers; ripplefold requires a compatible track. Grommet, tab-top and rod-pocket headings fit directly over a suitable rod. We can help you compare the options.
Can I choose fabrics other than Sunbrella?
Yes. Explore Sunbrella, silk, cotton canvas, faux silk and linen in our Fabric Finder. Silk is for indoor use. For outdoor drapery, ask us to confirm that your chosen fabric and hardware suit the exposure.
How do I measure the finished length?
Measure from the actual hanging point to your intended finished hem. For rings, start at the bottom of the ring; for tracks, at the bottom of the carrier attachment. Rod-pocket and tab-top drapery are measured from the top of the rod. Grommet headings extend above the rod, so confirm that allowance before ordering. See the buying guide or send us a photograph for help.
Can you help with fullness, lining and installation?
Yes. Fullness depends on the heading, fabric and opening arrangement. We can discuss lining, privacy, light control and stack space, and confirm local installation availability through a design consultation.
