FAQs

What is the diameter of the curtain pole?

The curtain pole has a diameter of 28mm.

Do I need to assemble the pole?

If your chosen length is over 210cm, the pole will be supplied in two sections that need to be joined together using the provided connector. The brackets and finials will also need to be attached.

What is the finish of the curtain pole?

The curtain pole has a polished chrome finish.

What type of curtains can I use with this pole?

This pole is compatible with most curtains that use curtain rings, including those with eyelets or loops.

How do I clean the polished chrome finish?

Clean with a soft, dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is the length of the pole adjustable?

No, this is a fixed-length curtain pole, meaning it is not designed to be shortened or extended after purchase.

What should I do if my pole is over 210cm?

Poles over 210cm are supplied in two sections. You will need to connect these two sections using the provided joiner to create a single pole before installation.

Troubleshooting

Pole feels unstable

Ensure all brackets are securely fastened to the wall and that the pole is seated correctly in the brackets. Check that the joiner (if applicable) is fully engaged.

Curtains snagging on the pole

Verify that the pole is straight and that the curtain rings are not catching on the joiner. Ensure the curtain rings are smooth and appropriate for the pole diameter.

Difficulty joining pole sections (if applicable)

Ensure the end of each pole section is clean and free of debris. Align the sections carefully before inserting the joiner and gently push them together.

Finish is tarnished or discolored

Avoid using harsh chemicals. Try cleaning with a soft cloth and a mild soap solution, then dry thoroughly. If damage is significant, a professional metal polish may be needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure Window: Accurately measure the width of your window and add at least 15-20cm to each side for adequate curtain coverage and to avoid light gaps.
  2. Mark Bracket Positions: Using a pencil, mark the desired positions for the curtain pole brackets on the wall or window frame, ensuring they are level and spaced appropriately (typically 1/3 of the pole length from each end).
  3. Install Brackets: Securely attach the provided brackets to the wall using appropriate screws and wall plugs for your wall type.
  4. Attach Pole: Place the curtain pole into the brackets. If your pole is over 210cm, you will need to join the two sections using the provided connector before placing it on the brackets.
  5. Add Finials: Slide the finials onto the ends of the pole and secure them if required (some may screw on).

Compatibility:

  • Curtains: Compatible with most standard curtains that use curtain rings with loops or eyelets. The 28mm diameter is suitable for most ring sizes.
  • Wall Types: Ensure you use the correct fixings for your specific wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick, wood).
  • Window Sizes: Available in various fixed lengths. Poles over 210cm are supplied in two sections.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
  • For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the polished chrome finish.
