FAQs

What is included in the price?

The price is for one stair rod, which includes two brackets and two piston finials.

Can the rod length be adjusted?

Yes, the 9mm hollow rods can be easily cut on-site to achieve the required length.

What material are the stair rods made of?

The stair rods are crafted from high-quality stainless steel.

What is the total length of the rod with finials attached?

The total length of the rod and finials is approximately 795mm to 805mm.

How do I clean these stair rods?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish.

Will the cut end of the rod be visible?

No, the finials are designed to connect to the brackets, and the cut end of the rod will be hidden inside the bracket for a neat finish.

Are these suitable for all types of stairs?

They are suitable for most staircases where carpet runners are used, provided the brackets can be securely mounted.

Troubleshooting

Rod does not fit the desired length.

The hollow rod is designed to be cut on-site. Use a suitable metal cutting tool to shorten the rod to your exact measurement.

Finials do not attach securely.

Ensure the rod end is clean and dry. Some finials may have a small set screw; check if one needs to be tightened.

Carpet runner still shifts.

Verify that the brackets are installed securely and that the rod is tensioned correctly across the runner. Ensure the runner itself is adequately sized for the stairs.

Finish appears dull or tarnished.

Clean the rods with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Enhances staircase aesthetics with a unique design.
Provides practical functionality by securing carpet runners.
Durable stainless steel construction ensures longevity.

Finials are designed to hide cut edges for a clean finish.

Cons

Sold individually (price is for 1 rod, 2 brackets, and 2 finials), requiring multiple purchases for a full staircase.

Hollow rods might be less robust than solid alternatives for very heavy traffic areas.
The whimsical finial design may not suit all decor styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Determine the required length for your staircase. The 9mm hollow rods can be cut on-site to the desired measurement. The total length including finials is approximately 795mm - 805mm, with the rod itself being 725mm.
Mark the positions for the two included brackets on either side of the carpet runner on your stair.
Securely attach the brackets to the stairs according to standard DIY practices.
Slide the cut rod through the brackets.
Attach the piston finials to the ends of the rod. The design allows the cut end of the rod to be hidden inside the bracket for a clean finish.

Compatibility:

These stair rods are designed to work with standard carpet runners and stair carpets. They are suitable for most staircase types, provided the brackets can be securely fastened.

Care:

Clean the stainless steel rods and nickel-plated finials with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
