Poles over 210cm in length are supplied in two sections that join together for shipping and handling. This is a standard practice for longer curtain poles.
Troubleshooting
Curtain pole sags in the middle.
Ensure that the number and spacing of brackets are appropriate for the length of the pole and the weight of the curtains. Consider adding an extra bracket if necessary. Ensure all brackets are securely fixed to the wall.
Brackets feel loose on the wall.
The wall fixings may not be suitable for the wall type or may not have been installed correctly. Remove the brackets, check the wall anchors, and re-secure using appropriate fixings for your wall material (e.g., using wall plugs for plasterboard).
Curtain rings get stuck on the pole.
The pole's finish might be uneven, or the rings may have sharp edges. Ensure the pole is clean and smooth. Check the curtain rings for any burrs or defects. If the pole has a join for lengths over 210cm, ensure the join is smooth.
