How to Attach a Curtain Room Divider to a Drop Ceiling
Curtains can be used for many purposes, from covering a window or blank wall, to a room divider to add privacy and character to an otherwise wide-open space.
When hanging a curtain room divider from a drop ceiling, curtains can be hung in a number of ways, including hanging curtain rods, a pulley system or curtain track system. Installing a track system for your curtain room divider can be completed in about an hour or less.

- 5 to 15 track sliders (depending on length of track)
