Curtain Pole Support Bracket Pair - B&Q - Silver - SS28 CYL QL PAIR

These supports are specifically designed for curtain poles with a 28mm diameter.

No, the quick lock mechanism allows for tool-free installation and removal of the curtain pole itself. However, you will need tools to mount the supports to the wall.

It's a system where an inner rubber lug inside the support grips the curtain pole, securing it without the need for external screws or Allen keys, preventing movement.

No, wall fixings are not included. You will need to provide fixings appropriate for your specific wall type.

Wipe them clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

These supports are suitable for standard domestic curtains. For exceptionally heavy or thick curtains, consider using additional supports or a system rated for higher weight capacities.

While this guide focuses on the silver 28mm pair, similar quick lock metal curtain pole supports are available in different diameters (e.g., 35mm) and colours (e.g., black, grey, chrome, antique brass) from brands like B&Q and New Edge Blinds.

Ensure the curtain pole is a true 28mm diameter. Check that the internal rubber lug is correctly seated and making firm contact with the pole. If the pole is slightly undersized, consider adding a thin shim or using a different support system.

Verify that the wall fixings used are appropriate for your wall type and are tightened securely. Ensure the support itself is correctly aligned with the wall before final tightening.

While designed for easy removal, ensure you are pulling the pole straight out of the open support. If resistance is felt, double-check that no additional screws or fixings were inadvertently used during installation.
