Scott used a Dremel to cut the tracks down to very specific lengths and a drill. The drill was used to make pilot holes in the ceiling, as well as making holes in the track itself (to match up with the ceiling holes), and we used anchors to keep it all in place.

You can definitely handle a project like this, but it may be best to hire a friend for a small amount of time while you actually begin mounting the tracks to the ceiling – an extra hand will come in handy when dealing with something longer than 6′!

Hope that helps!
Kim

I, too, am from Chicago and small spaces are hard to personalize but you all have truly made the space your own and it is just breathtaking. I was wondering if you can tell me what tools were needed to install the tracks. I am planning to put some ceiling tracks in my kitchen, bedroom and daughters room and would love to know the difficulty level of the project I intend to embark on alone. It would be great if you could give me some tips. Thank you so much.

The curtains in our living room / kitchen divider are from Ikea, and I think they cost about $40 for 2 panels in 115″ length. It’s a steal! You can also find more info on where the things in our home came from, right here: http://www.yellowbrickhome.com/source-list.

I have been searching all over but can’t find anything that large!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the fantastic photos of your apartment, this is just the idea I needed to isolate the back operatory. I also found that you can purchase antiobiotic curtains that prevent germ buildup.
