Rack Curtains
Rack curtains play a crucial role in ensuring privacy, improving the quality of sleep, and providing an individual space for sailors during free time. An effectively designed rack curtain system ensures that seamen are able to sleep without distracting interruptions, meaning boosted morale and well-being onboard.
Choosing the Right Curtains for Shipboard Comfort
Selecting high-quality rack and/or berth curtains begins with choosing durable, flame-retardant materials that are easy to maintain and meet naval safety standards.
Davis Interior’s can help ensure the selected curtains meet your vessel’s specific needs. Our guidance can lead to better material choices, ideal sizing, and configurations that align with ship design and function.
Maximizing Impact Through Proper Installation
Rack and berth curtains are a smart, lasting investment in onboard well-being. For tailored recommendations, reach out to our team, we’re here to help you make the best choice for your crew.
Curtains should be professionally installed for optimal performance. A proper fit ensures effective privacy, light control, and ease of use, while sturdy tracks and fasteners prevent sagging or damage from motion at sea. Whether you’re upgrading an older vessel or outfitting a new one, adding or updating rack and berth curtains enhances comfort and crew morale. Routine inspections and replacements keep the benefits going long-term.
