Double Wooden Curtain Pole, 120 cm (47.24"), Mahogany

Product Information

Corded curtain polesare useful if you struggle to reach the top of your curtains to open and close them. Additionally, they can be used for delicate fabrics that could be damaged by frequent handling. You can also add roller gliders if the curtains are heavy. Advent Designs traditional wood stained curtain poles have a French polished finish and are hand waxed to a natural soft sheen. Our bespoke curtain poles come in a range of diameters from 19mm to 50mm. However, you don’t necessarily need a larger pole for heavier curtains. Base your choice on how prominent you’d like the curtain pole to be.

Curtain poles with gliders, such as the Silent Gliss Metropole, are great at carrying heavy curtains. They operate smoothly and make handling bulky fabrics a breeze. Choose between the corded Silent Gliss 6120 and the uncorded 6130.But above, I'm measuring where I wanted my pole using a scrap piece of card of half the depth of my batten. This is because we'd already marked where our pole was going to do due to the length of our curtains. Then drew a straight line from this with a spirit level. MARK YOUR CENTRE POINT With my batten being an MDF off cut, you can buy MDF sealer. However, I skipped this step and painted with two coats of the same wall paint instead. There is no hard and fast rule on how high your curtain pole should be but as a general rule of thumb the norm is to position it around 15-20cms above the window. If the pole you have chosen is quite wide, position it high enough so that it does not come below the window recess. If you’re hanging floor-length curtains and fitting them lower down, a 30mm pole will stand out enough to be seen and not be overpowered by the curtain. Then my husband took over and he found it impossible too. And we soon realised we must have hit the steel lintel. As we don't have an SDS drill and my Dad's is too far away to borrow, it beat us both.

inches is the general rule when it comes to how far your curtain pole should extend past the window itself. The main reason you want to let your curtain pole extend beyond the window by this much is so that the curtains overlap the window and wall – preventing light from seeping in around the edge of the window. Can you hang pencil pleat curtains on a pole? Ensure both surfaces are dust free and here's where I applied in a wiggle fashion from top to bottom.Adventhardwood curtain poles are sourced and finished in the UK and all are taken from sustainable and managed resources The Silent Gliss 7650 Basic Electric Pole is an electrically operated pole that comes complete with a switch to open and close the curtains. It works in the same way as the Basic system and comes with a standard three pin mains plug so there is not need for an electrician to wire the product into the mains. The motor fits directly into the pole and runs a belt around the pole; this makes the pole much more efficient as well as being more reliable than other forms of operation. The design and look is the same as the 50mm Metropole and is available in seven different colours. The 7650 system has a manual override so that in the event of a power failure the curtains can be drawn by hand. In addition to the system operation the 7650 electric curtain pole also has a “touch and go” feature which will take over the operation of the curtain if it is ever pulled by hand. The motor and transformer are hidden behind the curtains ensuring that the product is attractive, simple and effective. This is a made to measure product that is made to your bespoke size.
