• Our drapery hardware and ripplefold components work in conjunction to create tailored draperies with perfectly shaped and evenly spaced folds.
• Window treatments using ripplefold components have reduced drapery stacks which create increased window exposure.

• Snap carriers dictate how full or narrow the folds are and the spacing between the folds.
• Ripplefold fullness options include 60%, 80%, 100% and 120%.
• Snap carriers are double sided making them ideal for sheers or creating room dividers.
• Apply snap tape to the top backside of your drapery panel. Snaps are 4 ¼” on center.
