FAQs

Can this pole support heavy blackout curtains?

This 19mm pole is designed for light to medium-weight curtains. For very heavy or thick blackout drapes, a thicker diameter pole may be required.

Does the set include wall plugs?

Yes, the assembly kit includes the necessary mounting hardware, including brackets and screws for standard installations.

Is the black finish prone to scratching?

The finish is durable, but avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemicals during cleaning to maintain its appearance.

Can I use this pole for a window wider than 120cm?

No, this specific model is designed for a maximum reach of 120cm. For wider windows, please consider our larger 120-320cm variants.

Are the finials removable?

Yes, the finials can be removed to allow for easy sliding of curtain rings onto the pole.

Troubleshooting

Curtain rings catching on the extension joint

Ensure the inner pole is fully aligned with the outer pole and that the locking mechanism is tightened. You can also apply a very small amount of silicone lubricant to the joint if resistance persists.

Pole sagging in the middle

Check if the span exceeds the recommended 120cm or if the curtains are too heavy. Ensure the two included brackets are mounted securely into solid wall material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: begin by measuring your window width and extending the pole to the desired length. Use a spirit level to ensure the brackets are aligned perfectly on the wall. Once the brackets are secured, slide the curtain onto the pole before placing the pole into the brackets and attaching the finials. For care, simply wipe the pole down periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive household cleaners, as these may damage the black finish over time. Periodically check the bracket screws to ensure they remain tight against the wall.
