Troubleshooting
Curtain pole sags in the middle
Ensure all support brackets are securely fastened to the wall. For poles over 210cm, ensure the central bracket is installed and supporting the pole correctly. Consider adding an additional central bracket for heavier curtains or longer spans.
Finials won't stay attached
Check if the finials have a screw mechanism and ensure it is tightened securely. If they simply push on, verify they are fully seated on the pole end.
Difficulty sliding curtain rings
Ensure the curtain rings have a sufficient internal diameter for the 28mm pole. Check for any burrs or imperfections on the pole's surface and clean if necessary. Consider using silicone spray lubricant sparingly on the pole if rings consistently stick.
Pole sections (over 210cm) don't fit together
Ensure the connector is fully inserted into one pole end before joining the second pole end. Check for any obstructions within the pole ends or the connector.
