Are all necessary fixings included?

Typically, mounting brackets and screws are included. However, the appropriate wall plugs for your specific wall type may need to be purchased separately.

Can I cut this curtain pole to size?

As this is a metal curtain pole, cutting it to a custom size may require specific tools and expertise. It is generally recommended to purchase the closest fixed length available.

How do I clean the curtain pole?

Wipe clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Curtain pole is sagging in the middle.

Ensure sufficient brackets have been used, especially for longer poles or heavier curtains. Check that all brackets are securely fixed to the wall and the pole is properly seated within them. For poles over 210cm, verify the joint is securely connected.

Brackets feel loose on the wall.

The wall fixings may not be appropriate for the wall type or may have become worn. Re-secure the brackets using stronger wall plugs or screws suitable for your wall construction. For plasterboard, consider using toggle bolts or heavy-duty plasterboard fixings.

Difficulty sliding curtains.

Ensure curtain rings or hooks are smooth and free from burrs. Check that the curtain pole is perfectly straight and the rings are not catching on bracket arms or pole joints.

Finials are loose.

Check if the finials screw onto the pole or are attached via a set screw. Tighten accordingly. If they appear to be damaged, contact customer support for replacements.

  • Durable metal construction ensures longevity.
  • Elegant silver finish complements various decor styles.
  • Stylish glass bubbles finials add a decorative element.
  • Generous 28mm diameter provides excellent support for curtains.
  • Fixed length offers a clean, uninterrupted appearance.

Cons

  • Fixed length means it cannot be adjusted to different window sizes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired placement for your curtain pole, ensuring it extends beyond the window frame by at least 15-20cm on each side to allow curtains to stack back fully.
  2. Mark the positions for the mounting brackets, ensuring they are level. Typically, brackets are placed approximately 10-15cm from the ends of the pole and at intervals in between for longer poles.
  3. Using appropriate drill bits for your wall type (e.g., masonry or plasterboard), drill pilot holes.
  4. Insert wall plugs if necessary, and securely fix the brackets to the wall using the provided screws.
  5. Place the curtain pole into the brackets. If your pole is over 210cm and supplied in two sections, connect the sections securely before placing on brackets.
  6. Add your curtains, ensuring they are threaded onto the pole or attached via rings.

Compatibility:

This curtain pole is compatible with most types of curtains, including eyelet, grommet, pencil pleat, and tab-top styles, provided appropriate curtain rings or hooks are used. It is suitable for mounting on plasterboard, brick, and other common wall surfaces, provided the correct fixings are used. The 28mm diameter is designed to accommodate standard curtain rings and accessories.

Care:

To maintain the finish, wipe the metal pole and finials with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the silver coating or the glass bubbles. Periodically check that the mounting brackets remain secure.
