How to find matching curtain gliders

[ahagwearsapointybonnet]

I'm hoping someone can help me with a small problem. We have a curtain track in our lounge which was inherited from the previous owners, so I don't know where it was from or what type; but it's lost a few of the gliders and now doesn't really have enough to hang the curtain well. I've looked round a bit though and not yet found any of the same type. Can anyone either identify them, or recommend a website or supplier that might be able to help? Otherwise we'll either have to put up with it or replace the whole track, which would be a pain. Photos hopefully attached. Thank you!

Hopeful bump!

I've dealt with a lot of older tracks in my work as a curtain maker, and I've never seen those gliders before. Sorry

I've had a quick google too without success but if you can get hold of a 3D printer they look like the sort of thing you could replicate easily.

That's a clever idea Lizzie, I don't think I know anyone with one but can ask around. Thanks Where too, that's confirmed my suspicion that they are quite unusual ones. Worst case we'll just have to get a new track,

It's hard to say without a side on view, but they look like silentgliss

Is the photo of an intact one or a broken one?

I was wondering if it’s a swish superluxe or supreme but with the bit that runs on the track missing. But if the photo is of an intact one, it’s not that.

I think scrutinise ebay and try to find gliders that will fit into the same track even if the hanging down bit is different.

Thanks! To answer questions - no it's not broken, and here's the side view (hopefully).
I thought about looking for others that would fit, but wasn't sure if they would give the dimensions for the bit that goes in the track. Also these ones have a bit of a kink in which means the curtains hang a bit forward of the track but not sure if others would be the same? Might take a look later though.

Hi just wondering if you found a solution to your curtain glider situation. I have the same problem as you had in April 2020. Did you find a match if so would be grateful for your advice. Thanks Debs
