General FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Metal curtain poles are a popular choice for window treatments. They are available in a variety of styles, finishes, and diameters, ranging from sleek and contemporary to traditional and ornate. They are strong, durable, and provide a sturdy base for hanging heavy curtains. Direct Fabrics offer an extensive range of metal curtain poles to suit any décor style, including brushed and polished finishes, black nickel, antique brass, and chrome, with various finial designs and diameters.

Installing metal curtain poles is a straightforward process. Start by measuring the width of your window, allowing extra space on either side for the curtains to stack back. Decide on the height of the pole, usually around 6 inches above the window frame. Use a pencil to mark the position of the brackets, ensuring they are level, and drill pilot holes. Attach the brackets to the wall using screws and wall plugs, then slide the metal pole through the rings on the curtain, and secure the finials in place. Direct Fabrics offers metal curtain poles complete with fittings, screws, and instructions for easy installation.

To clean metal curtain poles, wipe them with a damp cloth or sponge, using a mild soap or detergent solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface of the metal. Dry the pole with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots. Direct Fabrics recommends regular cleaning of metal curtain poles to maintain their appearance and prolong their lifespan.

Bay Window Curtain Poles

 

A bay window curtain pole is made out of metal and allows for the pole to follow the line of the bay window. This is done by using corner joints and by cutting down the individual bars so that it can be manoeuvred into place.

 

When purchasing bay window poles you need to make sure that you choose either a 3 or 5 sided option. A three sided bay is a standard L shape or part rectangular bay window. The 5 sided bay has the extra and soft bends. If you want the pole to come across the front of the window you need to buy the bay window return kits. These are available for both 28mm and 19mm options. 

 

The bay window poles have passing rings so that the curtains can pass over the supports. If you have eyelet curtain you will need to have either 3 or 5 panels as they will not pass over the brackets.

They can be easily cut down to the size that you require by using a hacksaw.

We also offer a custom kit, where you can build your own based on our list of components. Do not worry it is easy to make your own.

How a 28mm Bay Curtain Pole Works

 

A bay window curtain pole is designed so that it follows the contours of the window. So for a 3 sided bay window the pole has 2 corner joins which allows for the pole to be shaped with soft bends in order for it to flow around the window. Obviously as metal does not bend easily, knuckle joints allow for an angle upto and past 90 degrees to be applied to the curtain poles. See the product video for how these work.

 

 

Passing Supports and C Rings for Bay Curtain Poles 28mm

 

Our bendable bay window curtain pole also allows traditional heading curtains to pass over the curtain brackets through the use of lowered profile support. This low place supports mean that the "C" rings supplied can pass over the top of the support. So unlike old fashioned bay poles you are able to use 2 curtains the complete way around the pole. A superior solution that provides a stunning effect on your windows.
