Full details

The Lister Cartwright Extendable Curtain Pole is an ideal choice for homeowners seeking a blend of classic aesthetics and practical convenience for their window treatments. Designed to accommodate various curtain weights with its durable 19mm metal construction, this pole offers the significant benefit of a tool-free, adjustable length, making it perfect for those who want a quick installation without the hassle of sawing materials to size. However, prospective buyers should note that the extendable design features a slight seam where the poles overlap, which may require careful placement of curtain rings for smooth gliding.

FAQs

Does this pole support eyelet curtains?

Yes, the 19mm diameter is compatible with most standard eyelet curtains.

Is the pole suitable for heavy velvet curtains?

Yes, the metal construction is designed to support various curtain weights, provided the brackets are mounted securely.

Can I use this pole for a window wider than 220cm?

No, the maximum extension is 220cm. For wider windows, you would require a different model.

Are the finials removable?

Yes, the decorative finials can typically be removed to allow you to slide your curtain rings onto the pole.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will generally need a drill, a screwdriver, a spirit level, and a tape measure.

Is the finish resistant to sunlight?

The pole features a high-quality finish, but like all hardware, it is best to avoid direct, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or extreme moisture.

Troubleshooting

Curtain rings catching at the center

Ensure the poles are aligned properly at the connection point; you can apply a tiny amount of furniture wax or silicone spray to the seam to help rings glide over.

Pole feels loose or wobbly

Verify that the bracket screws are tightened fully into the wall and that the tension setting on the extendable pole is locked securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation involves marking your bracket locations on the wall, securing the brackets, and then extending the pole to the desired width before locking it into place. Ensure the pole is level for a professional appearance. For maintenance, simply wipe the pole down with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners that may damage the grey finish. Periodically check that the mounting screws remain tight, especially in high-traffic rooms where vibrations might occur.
