Why choose our 28mm heavy duty curtain pole set
Our 28mm curtain poles are specified for light to heavy curtain weights where a robust wall-fixed pole is required. These sets are commonly used on trade projects to keep installation consistent and reduce the need to source components separately.
Each set is supplied as a complete kit for one installation and is hand operated for straightforward use. The pole can be cut down using a hacksaw to suit your window width.
Finial options are available within the 28mm range. Refer to the finial specification images on this page and check the specifications tab for the latest product details and downloads.
Where this fits in our range
This range is the go-to option when you need a 28mm metal pole supplied as a complete wall-fix set. It suits installations where curtains are drawn by hand and where on-site cut-down is useful for matching window widths.
Best suited for
- Domestic windows with light to heavy curtains
- Trade and project work requiring repeatable specification
- Replacements where a 28mm diameter pole is preferred
Note: This is a curtain pole set (not a track). If you need corded draw, wave headings or track-based operation, select a curtain track system.
Who uses our 28mm heavy duty metal curtain poles
These complete sets are used for domestic installations and by trade customers who want a consistent, wall-fixed pole format for multiple rooms. They are typically selected where a straightforward hand-drawn solution is preferred.
For specification-critical work, confirm substrate type, bracket positioning and required load capacity prior to installation. For guidance and supporting documents, refer to the specifications tab and fitting instructions.
Trade installation consistency
Useful where multiple rooms need the same diameter and finish. Sets are supplied as a complete kit to simplify ordering and reduce site delays from missing parts.
On-site cut-down
Suitable when pole lengths need to be adjusted during installation. Cut carefully with a hacksaw and deburr the end prior to fitting finials.

How to Measure For Curtains, Blinds and Tracks.
Pen and Paper
For recording your
measurements.
Helper
Someone to assist if your
windows are large .
Metal Tape Measure
As this will allow you to get a
rigid full length measurement.
Make sure your curtain tracks and poles are fitted in the position you want.
Choose the type of curtains that you would like and how you want to hang your curtains. See our heading styles guide
We recommend fitting your hardware first before measuring, this avoids any issues with not getting the perfect fit.
Measure your window using our main guide. Quick summary below. Remember wave, pinch, and designer headings require slightly different measurement
Measure in 3 places and take the shortest drop – Floors and ceilings can run out.
Double / Triple check your measurements
Choosing your Curtain Track Width
The width of the curtain track should extend past your window this allows for the curtains to stack back away from your window and allow light in.
Measure your recess and then add on 15cm on either side. For acoustics , we recommend further to fully cover the window and the surrounding area. In our test we added an additional 30cm to the width and also made the curtain floor length.
Wave curtains, for every 100cm of track the curtains will stack circa *18cm
Eyelet curtains, they will stack back circa 10cm per *70cm of track width
Pencil Pleat will stack approx 25% of the track width. eg. 210cm track will stack 52.5%
* all dependent on thickness of fabric

How to Measure for Blinds going Inside the Recess
- Measure the exact width of the recess in three places; at the top of the recess, in the centre of the recess and near the bottom - then take the smallest size.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess in three places on the left hand side of the recess, in the centre of the recess and on the right hand side of the recess - then take the smallest size.
- We will take one cm off the finished width size you have given us, to allow for the blind to pull up and down easily.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the Fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
How to Measure Outside of the Recess
- Measure the recess in 3 places on the width and also 3 places on the drop. Take the widest measurement.
- Measure the width of the actual recess plus an additional amount – Usually from 7cm-15cm whatever you think looks appropriate. This is for overlap.
- Measure the exact drop of the recess. The blind would be fitted above the recess, so check the space above and add an amount on to the drop – usually from 7-15cm
- These sizes you have taken will be the size of the finished blind.
- Double check your measurements
- Cord Safety - Mounting Height - We ask for the mounting height of your blinds to allow for the cord to be 150cm off the ground. If mounting at 210cm This is what you enter in the fitting height box. We make a deduction to ensure the cord is 150cm from the floor. Thus the cord loop will be 60cm
Cubicle Tracks you have to measure with right angles from wall to wall where you want the track to go
Draw your room on a piece of paper with a sky view
Now measure from the wall to wall for straight tracks,
L Shape Tracks Measure to a point on the floor and mark with a piece of tape. Then for the other sides measure from the other wall to that point.
Always check for obstructions and fitting issues you may need to work around
