FAQs
What is the diameter of the curtain pole these supports are designed for?
These supports are designed for curtain poles with a 28mm diameter.
Do I need any tools to install the curtain pole into the supports?
No, the Quick Lock mechanism is designed for tool-free installation and removal of the curtain pole. No grub screws or Allen keys are required.
How do the supports keep the curtain pole in place?
They feature an inner rubber lug that grips the curtain pole, preventing it from moving sideways. This secures the pole without the need for traditional fastening methods like grub screws.
Can I use these supports with heavier curtains?
The robust metal construction provides strong support. However, the overall stability will also depend on the secure mounting of the brackets to the wall and the integrity of the curtain pole itself.
What is the advantage of the open support design?
The open design allows you to easily lift the curtain pole out of the support, making it convenient for cleaning your curtains or the pole itself, or for replacing them.
What finishes are available for this type of support?
While this specific product is in black, similar Quick Lock Cylinder Metal Curtain Pole Supports are available in other finishes like silver and grey from B&Q and New Edge Blinds.
How should I clean the supports?
Wipe them clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Curtain pole feels loose in the support.
Ensure the curtain pole is fully seated within the quick lock mechanism. Check that the inner rubber lug is engaging correctly with the pole. If the pole is slightly less than 28mm, consider adding a thin layer of tape to the pole where it meets the lug for a tighter fit.
Support bracket does not seem secure on the wall.
Verify that the correct type of screws and wall plugs for your wall material (e.g., plasterboard, brick) have been used. Ensure screws are tightened adequately without stripping the hole.
Difficulty inserting the curtain pole into the bracket.
Make sure the open end of the bracket is clear of any obstructions. Confirm the curtain pole is straight and directly aligned with the opening before attempting to insert it.
