FAQs

What is included in the pack?

The pack includes one pole (may be in two sections for lengths 240cm and above), two finials, two or three brackets (depending on length), coordinating curtain rings, and fixings.

Does the pole length include the finials?

No, the stated pole length (300 cm in this case) does not include the finials. You should allow up to an additional 14cm to accommodate them.

How many curtain rings are provided?

The quantity of rings supplied is based on the industry standard of 1 ring per every 10cm of pole length. For a 300cm pole, you would typically receive around 30 rings.

Can I cut the curtain pole to size?

Yes, the wooden pole can be cut to your required length. Ensure you use appropriate tools for cutting wood and smooth any rough edges afterward.

How do I clean the wooden curtain pole?

Wipe the pole clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.

What is the diameter of the curtain pole?

The diameter of this curtain pole is 28 mm.

Is this pole suitable for heavy curtains?

The 28mm diameter provides good support for medium to heavy curtains. Ensure adequate bracket support is used, especially for longer lengths and heavier fabrics.

Troubleshooting

Pole sections do not join securely

Ensure the joiner is fully inserted into both pole sections. Check for any obstructions in the pole ends or the joiner itself. If the fit is still loose, contact customer support.

Brackets feel unstable

Verify that the correct wall fixings have been used for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick). Ensure all screws are tightened securely. Consider using stronger, appropriate wall plugs if necessary.

Curtain rings do not slide smoothly

Check that the pole surface is clean and free of debris. Ensure the rings are not snagging on the joiner. Occasionally, a small amount of wax or silicone spray can help improve glide.

Finials are loose

Most finials screw onto the pole. Try tightening them by hand. If they continue to be loose, check if there is a grub screw or other mechanism for securing them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gather Components: Unpack all items: pole sections, finials, brackets, rings, and fixings.
  2. Position Brackets: Determine the desired placement for your curtain pole. Mark the wall for bracket positions, ensuring they are level and spaced appropriately for support (typically one at each end and one or two in the middle for poles 240cm and above).
  3. Install Brackets: Securely fasten the brackets to the wall using the provided fixings. Ensure they are robust enough to hold the weight of the pole and curtains.
  4. Assemble Pole: If your pole is in two sections (300cm), insert the joiner into one end and then connect the second pole section. Attach the finials to each end of the assembled pole.
  5. Mount Pole: Place the assembled pole onto the installed brackets.
  6. Add Rings: Slide the coordinating curtain rings onto the pole.
  7. Hang Curtains: Attach your curtains to the rings.

Compatibility:

  • This 28mm diameter pole is compatible with most standard curtain types, including eyelet curtains (ensure eyelet diameter fits the 28mm pole) and curtains with loops or hooks.
  • The included fixings are suitable for most standard wall types; however, you may need specialized fixings for harder-to-drill surfaces.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the wood finish.
  • Keep away from excessive moisture.
