Soundproof Curtains FAQs

Actual noise reduction depends on many factors: curtain material and thickness, how well it covers the window or wall, whether the room has other sound-leaks (doors, neighbouring walls), and ambient environment. Our soundproof curtains use high-density and multi-layer design, so in typical urban Dubai settings you will experience meaningful reduction in traffic or external noise.

Soundproof curtains work especially well in:

• Urban apartments with traffic or construction noise
  
• Homes near airports, highways, or busy roads
  
• Home offices needing quiet for calls/meetings
  

Studios (music, podcast, audio-editing) needing sound control.

At Atlantis Curtains, our custom fitting ensures the curtain covers the full span of the opening and is sized for maximum effect.

Key features include:

• Thick, acoustic-rated fabric or dense liner (mass matters)
  
• Full width/height coverage of window with minimal gaps
  
• Overlap at sides and bottom to block sound leak
  
• Custom sizing matched to your space (window size, wall mount)
  
• Installation quality (track/rod, method)
  

Optional extras: blackout functionality, thermal insulation, motorisation
At Atlantis Curtains, our custom service allows you to choose fabrics, profiles, motorisation and matching aesthetics while ensuring acoustic performance.

Because soundproof curtains are typically heavy and have dense layers, they often double as blackout curtains (blocking light) and thermal curtains (reducing heat transfer). This means improved sleep, lower energy bills and enhanced comfort in hot climates (such as Dubai). Atlantis Curtains emphasises that our soundproof range blends acoustic, thermal and light-control benefits.

For maximum acoustic benefit you need: a curtain track or rod that spans the full width, the curtain mounted so it overlaps the wall/window, proper drop/length, and minimal gaps. Professional installers can ensure the curtain is mounted at the correct height, positioned to reduce sound leaks, and fitted with optional features (motorisation, remote control). At Atlantis Curtains we provide both custom measurements and expert installation as part of the service.

Maintenance tips:

• Vacuum or dust fabric regularly to remove particles which can reduce performance
  
• If machine-washable (check label) follow labelled instructions — otherwise professional cleaning is recommended
  
• Ensure track/rod and fixtures remain smooth and secure (so curtain hangs fully)
  
• Avoid leaving curtains open for long periods if you want consistent sound reduction.

Atlantis Curtains offers guidance on care post-installation.

Because our soundproof curtains are custom-made (fabric selection, sizing, optional motorisation, colour matching), we generally ask for a site visit or measurement, fabric selection, then production and installation. Lead time varies depending on fabric choice, track/rod hardware, and installation complexity (especially in high-rise or difficult access apartments in Dubai). Contact our team for a detailed quote.

Soundproof curtains can reduce ambient noise and improve comfort greatly, but if the building has large sound-leaks (e.g., poorly sealed windows, thin walls, open doors, HVAC noise) you might still hear some noise. For full acoustic isolation you might need additional treatments (wall insulation, double glazing, acoustic panels). The curtains offer a stylish, practical and cost-effective first step — and at Atlantis Curtains we guide you through realistic performance expectations.

Visit our website and navigate to the Soundproof Curtains section. We’ll arrange a free or low-cost consultation: one of our specialists visits your space (or remote measurement via photos/video), recommends fabric options and hardware, provides a quote including installation, and outlines lead time. We service all of Dubai and offer custom solutions tailored to your style and functional needs.
