Spotlight vs Kmart S-Fold curtain tracks
Both tracks will hang our S-Fold curtains. The Spotlight Caprice Premium S-Fold track has its gliders on a cord at 60 mm spacing, which is the spacing our curtains are made for, so every wave comes out the same. The Kmart (Anko) S-Fold track is $20 for 140 cm, but its gliders are loose, so the waves are less even. It is fine for a light sheer on a small window.
We bought the Kmart track and took it apart, and looked at the Spotlight track and its glider pack in store in November 2026. Prices below are what was on the shelf on 12 November 2026 and will change.

Why the cord matters
On an S-Fold track the cord sets the gap between gliders. When the curtain is closed the cord pulls tight and every wave ends up the same depth. Without a cord, as on the Kmart track, the gliders sit wherever the curtain hooks pull them, so some waves come out deeper than others. It still works; it just looks less tidy, more so on wide windows.
Which Spotlight set to buy
Buy by track width, which is the window plus the space the open curtain needs at the sides. Pick the set that is the same or a little longer, and don't cut more than 20 cm off it.
| Track width | Set to buy |
|---|---|
| Up to 1.5 m | 150 cm |
| 1.5 to 2.0 m | 200 cm |
| 2.0 to 2.5 m | 250 cm |
| 2.5 to 3.0 m | 300 cm |
| Over 3 m | Two sets joined with a Caprice joiner |
Our pick
We don't sell tracks. Our S-Fold curtains fit both, but we suggest the Spotlight Caprice Premium S-Fold set: it is corded, comes in black or white, mounts on the wall or ceiling, and runs more smoothly. The Kmart track is fine for a small, light window on a budget.
