Product Information
Full details
The B&Q 240 cm Wooden Curtain Pole Set is ideal for homeowners looking for a robust and stylish solution to hang medium to heavy-weight curtains in both modern and traditional rooms. Featuring a clean chalk white finish and elegant finials, this set provides a polished look to any window dressing. While it offers excellent durability and structural support, users should ensure they have sufficient wall space, as the 240 cm length is fixed and not suitable for smaller window frames without professional trimming.

FAQs
Can this pole be cut down to a smaller size?
Yes, the wooden pole can be trimmed with a fine-tooth saw to fit smaller windows, though care must be taken to maintain a clean edge.
Does this set include curtain rings?
Yes, the kit is a complete package and includes the necessary rings to hang your curtains.
Is the white finish glossy or matte?
The chalk white finish is designed with a subtle, smooth matte texture to match various interior styles.
What is the maximum weight this pole can hold?
It is designed for medium to heavy-weight curtains, providing ample support for standard lined household drapes.
Are the finials removable?
Yes, the finials are detachable, which allows for easier installation of the curtain rings onto the pole.
Troubleshooting
Pole sagging in the middle
Ensure that the center support bracket included in the kit is properly installed and screwed firmly into the wall.
Difficulty sliding curtains
Check that the curtain rings are evenly spaced and that the pole surface is free of debris or paint chips that could cause friction.
Bracket feels loose
Remove the bracket and check that the wall anchor is fully expanded; if the hole is stripped, use a larger anchor or a wood filler before re-drilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a basic drill, screwdriver, and level. First, measure your window width and center the pole. Mark the bracket positions on the wall, ensuring they are level. Drill pilot holes for the provided anchors, mount the brackets, and slide the curtains onto the pole before fixing the pole into the brackets. Tighten all side screws to prevent movement. For care, dust the pole occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they may strip or discolor the chalk white paint finish.
