Full details
The Lister Cartwright 28mm wooden curtain pole is an ideal choice for homeowners seeking a traditional aesthetic combined with robust structural support for standard weight curtains. Designed for those who value classic craftsmanship, this black-finished pole offers a refined look with its signature ball finials; however, users should be mindful that the stated 150cm length refers only to the pole itself, requiring an additional 14cm of clearance for the finials to ensure proper fitment on your wall space.

FAQs
What is the total length of the pole including the finials?
The pole is 150cm, and the finials add an additional 14cm, making the total width 164cm.
Can I cut this pole to a shorter length?
The pole is made of solid wood; while it is possible to trim, doing so may affect the integrity of the finial attachment and is generally not recommended.
Are the mounting screws and wall plugs included?
Yes, the product comes with a comprehensive pack containing the pole, finials, brackets, rings, and necessary fixings.
Is this pole suitable for heavy blackout curtains?
This pole is designed for standard curtain weights. For very heavy drapes, ensure the brackets are securely anchored into wall studs.
Does the black finish chip easily?
The finish is durable, but care should be taken during installation to avoid scratching the surface with tools.
Troubleshooting
The pole appears to sag in the center
Ensure the center support bracket (if applicable) is installed correctly and that the curtain weight does not exceed the pole's load capacity.
Curtain rings are sticking or not moving smoothly
Check for any burrs on the pole and ensure the wood is clean; applying a small amount of furniture wax can help rings glide more freely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, mark your drill holes ensuring the brackets are spaced evenly to prevent pole sagging. Always use a level to ensure the pole sits straight across the window frame. For maintenance, wipe the wood with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust buildup. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the black finish over time. If the curtains become difficult to slide, a light application of silicone lubricant to the pole surface can improve performance.
