FAQs
What size curtain poles do these supports fit?
These supports are designed specifically for curtain poles with a 28mm diameter.
Do I need any special tools to install these?
You will need basic tools for mounting the brackets to the wall (drill, screwdriver, appropriate screws and wall plugs). However, securing the curtain pole into the bracket itself requires no tools due to the quick-lock mechanism.
Are screws and wall plugs included?
No, screws and wall plugs are not included with the supports. You will need to provide these based on your wall type.
How do I remove the curtain pole for cleaning?
Simply lift the curtain pole upwards out of the open support bracket. The quick-lock mechanism releases easily without tools.
What is the advantage of the quick-lock mechanism?
The quick-lock mechanism uses an internal rubber lug to secure the pole, preventing sideways movement and eliminating the need for traditional grub screws and Allen keys for installation and removal.
Can I use these supports with heavier curtains?
These supports are designed for standard curtain weights. For extremely heavy or bulky curtains, additional support may be recommended.
What material are the supports made from?
The supports are made from durable metal with a modern grey finish.
Troubleshooting
Curtain pole feels loose in the support.
Ensure the curtain pole is fully seated within the support and the quick-lock mechanism has engaged properly. Check that the rubber lug is intact and properly positioned.
Support bracket wobbles on the wall.
Check that the screws are tightened securely. If the wall is soft, ensure you are using appropriate wall plugs and screws for the wall type.
