Product Information

Full details

The Lister Cartwright 19mm Silver Extendable Curtain Pole is an ideal solution for homeowners and renters seeking a versatile, easy-to-install window treatment that requires no custom cutting. This sleek, silver-toned pole adjusts to fit window spans between 120cm and 220cm, providing a professional look with minimal effort. While the 19mm diameter is perfect for standard curtain weights, it may not be suitable for very heavy, lined drapes that require a thicker diameter rod for structural stability.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this pole be cut to a shorter length?

While the pole is designed to be extendable, it is not recommended to cut it, as this may damage the internal telescoping mechanism.

Does this set include curtain rings?

The package includes the extendable pole, finials, and mounting hardware. Please check the specific package contents, as curtain rings are often sold separately.

How much weight can this 19mm pole support?

This pole is designed for light to medium-weight curtains. Avoid using it with heavy, lined, or floor-length velvet curtains.

Can I mount this on the ceiling?

This product is primarily designed for wall mounting. Ceiling installation would require specific ceiling-mount brackets which are not included in the standard kit.

What is the diameter of the pole?

The pole has a diameter of 19mm.

Troubleshooting

The curtain rings get stuck at the center seam

Ensure the inner and outer poles are perfectly aligned and clean the joint. You can apply a tiny amount of silicone lubricant to the seam to help rings glide over the transition.

The pole feels unstable or sags in the middle

Verify that your brackets are screwed firmly into wall studs or appropriate wall anchors. If the span is near the 220cm maximum, consider adding a center support bracket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward and requires a drill, screwdriver, and level. First, measure the width of your window and position the brackets to ensure the pole is centered. Secure the brackets into the wall or window frame, insert the curtain panels onto the pole, and twist the telescoping section until it reaches the desired length. For long-term care, wipe the metal pole periodically with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or steel wool, as these can scratch the silver finish. Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they haven't loosened due to daily opening and closing of curtains.
