FAQs

What is the diameter of this curtain pole?

The diameter of this curtain pole is 28mm.

Can I cut this curtain pole to size?

This is a fixed-length curtain pole and is not designed to be cut. It is available in specific lengths.

What happens if I order a pole longer than 210cm?

Poles longer than 210cm are supplied in two separate lengths that join together with an included connector for easier handling and installation.

What type of curtains is this pole suitable for?

This 28mm metal curtain pole is suitable for most curtain types, including light, medium, and heavier fabrics, provided adequate support brackets are used.

Does it come with brackets and fittings?

Typically, curtain poles are sold with the necessary brackets and fixings. Please check the product packaging details for specific inclusions.

How do I clean the grey finish?

Is the grey colour a matte or gloss finish?

The product description typically specifies the finish. Please refer to the product details for precise information on the grey finish.

Troubleshooting

Curtain pole sags in the middle

Ensure adequate support brackets are used, especially for longer poles or heavier curtains. Check that the pole is correctly seated in its brackets and that the brackets are securely fastened to the wall. For poles over 210cm, ensure the central connector is properly engaged.

Brackets feel loose on the wall

Check the wall fixings. If using wall plugs, ensure they are the correct type for your wall material and are firmly seated. If the holes are too large, you may need to use larger wall plugs or a different mounting method.

Pole won't fit through curtain rings

Verify that the curtain rings are designed for a 28mm diameter pole. Some rings may have a smaller internal diameter than their stated external size.

Connector for two-piece poles is visible

Ensure the pole sections are fully pushed together into the connector. The design aims for a discreet join, but some visibility may occur depending on the curtain fullness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired mounting position for the pole, typically a few inches above the window frame.
  2. Mark the locations for the support brackets using a pencil. Ensure brackets are level.
  3. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations, using appropriate drill bits for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, masonry).
  4. Securely attach the support brackets to the wall using suitable screws and wall plugs.
  5. If your pole is supplied in two sections, join them using the provided connector.
  6. Slide the curtain rings onto the pole.
  7. Place the pole onto the brackets and secure it if necessary (some brackets have a locking mechanism).

Compatibility:

  • This pole is compatible with standard curtain rings that accommodate a 28mm diameter rod.
  • It is suitable for most types of curtains, including light to medium-heavy fabrics. For exceptionally heavy drapes, ensure adequate bracket support.
  • Ensure the chosen length fits your window width, accounting for desired overhang.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
