Full details

This Lister Cartwright 28mm Extendable Metal Curtain Pole in White is ideal for homeowners seeking a classic and affordable window dressing solution.

FAQs

What is the minimum and maximum length of the extendable pole?

The product description does not specify the exact minimum and maximum lengths, but it is designed to be extendable to fit above most windows without cutting.

What material is the curtain pole made from?

The curtain pole is made from metal.

Can I cut the pole if my window is a non-standard size?

While the pole is extendable to fit most windows, cutting is not recommended as it may affect the integrity of the extendable mechanism and finish.

Does the pole come with curtain rings?

The product information states the set includes two brackets, the extendable pole with finials, and an assembly kit. Curtain rings are not explicitly mentioned as included.

What is the weight capacity of the pole?

The 28mm diameter is suitable for any weight of curtains, though very heavy curtains may benefit from additional support.

How do I clean the white finish?

Clean the pole with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Are the finials interchangeable?

The product description mentions 'interchangeable finials' as a general feature of the range, but does not confirm if this specific white model comes with options or easily changeable finials.

Troubleshooting

Pole does not extend smoothly.

Ensure there are no obstructions within the pole. Check that the pole is aligned correctly and try gently twisting it as you extend.

Brackets feel loose after installation.

Verify that the correct screws are used and that they are tightened securely into a solid mounting surface. Consider using wall anchors if mounting into drywall.

Curtains are not hanging straight.

Check that the pole is perfectly level. Ensure the curtain rings or eyelets are evenly spaced and not catching on the pole.

Finials are difficult to attach.

Gently align the finial with the end of the pole and push or screw it on according to its design. Avoid forcing it.
