Full details
The Lister Cartwright 28mm Fixed Metal Curtain Pole in Bronze is designed for homeowners seeking a sturdy, elegant solution for hanging curtains in bedrooms or living areas. This durable metal pole offers a timeless aesthetic and the convenience of a pre-cut fixed length, eliminating the need for manual trimming. While it provides excellent support for heavy drapery, it is important to note that its fixed length design means it cannot be adjusted to fit non-standard window widths, so precise measurement of your space is essential before purchase.

FAQs
Can I cut this pole to a shorter length?
This pole is designed as a fixed-length unit. While it can technically be cut, it is not recommended as it will remove the decorative finish on the end and require specialized metal cutting tools.
Does this set include curtain rings?
Yes, the set includes a complete assembly kit with rings, brackets, and finials.
Is this pole suitable for outdoor use?
While the metal is durable, it is primarily designed for indoor use. Exposure to moisture may cause the finish to degrade over time.
What is the diameter of the pole?
The pole has a diameter of 28mm.
Can this be used for bay windows?
No, this is a rigid, fixed-length pole and cannot be bent to accommodate the angles of a bay window.
Troubleshooting
The pole appears to sag in the middle.
Ensure that the curtains are not exceeding the weight capacity and check that the brackets are mounted firmly into wall studs or using proper anchors for your wall type.
Curtains are difficult to slide along the pole.
Check for any burrs on the metal surface and ensure the rings are clean. A small amount of furniture polish or silicone lubricant on the pole can help.
Bracket screws are pulling out of the wall.
The wall material may be too soft. Ensure you are using wall plugs appropriate for the surface, such as toggle bolts for drywall or masonry anchors for brick.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the inclusion of a complete assembly kit. Start by measuring your window area to ensure the 240 cm length provides adequate coverage and clearance on both sides. Once centered, mark the bracket positions on the wall using a level to ensure the pole hangs perfectly straight. Secure the brackets, then thread your curtains onto the pole before resting it into the bracket cradles and attaching the decorative finials. To maintain the bronze finish, dust the pole periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may strip the metallic coating. If the curtains stick, a light application of silicone spray on the pole can improve the glide.
