Which curtain pole type is right for your home?

Our wide range of curtain poles is available in a large variety of lengths, diameters, styles and finishes. With so many options to choose from it helps to know what type of curtains you have?

Voiles and nets work well on a 19mm metal curtain pole as a thin pole can easily take the light weight curtains and the small profile compliments the airy fabrics.

Medium weight curtains are more suited to 28mm and 35mm curtain poles. For an eyelet curtain pole we suggest a 28mm pole as the majority of ready made eyelet curtains have 40mm eyelets.

Heavy curtains require a larger diameter curtain rod - 35mm and 50mm for metal poles and 45mm to 63mm for wooden curtain poles.

Wooden Curtain Poles

A wooden curtain pole or curtain rod works well with all decor styles and adds warmth to a room.

Light tones such as a white curtain pole can help brighten a dark room and blend into the simple colour palette. We also offer fantastic oak curtain pole ranges with most timber from sustainable sources. Darker tones can make a dramatic statement to your home.

With a variety of pole sizes available, a wooden curtain pole of 35mm diameter is a good solid choice for most windows but if you need an extra long curtain pole then a larger diameter pole maybe required.

Eyelet Curtain Poles

An eyelet curtain pole is a great rail choice to compliment your eyelet curtains. These poles are supplied without rings and we recommend a metal eyelet curtain pole so the eyelets in your curtains can run smoothly across the pole. Eyelet curtains are also a fantastic style choice for a simple clean look in your home.

Curtain Pole Buyers Guide

Simply order the next size up from what you require. Also remember to add at least an extra 30cm beyond the window size.

Yes, our standard metal and wooden curtain poles can all be cut down to your required size with a hacksaw. The finials cover the ends you have cut down so don’t worry too much about your cuts. If your curtain pole comes in two pieces just make sure you cut equal amounts off both poles and remember to put the manufactured cuts together!

Yes, we suggest 28mm eyelet curtain poles for the majority of ready made eyelet curtains (40mm eyelets) you can buy and 35mm curtain poles for eyelet curtains with larger 50mm eyelets.

Once you have found the curtain pole you like, you can select “eyelet curtain pole” on most of our 28mm and 35mm metal curtain poles.

Alot of the time it’s just personal preference but in some circumstances you have only one option. If you are looking for a bay window curtain pole then a metal curtain pole is the way to go as a wooden bay window curtain pole isn’t really an option.

Also ceiling mounted curtain poles tend to be metal as the majority of wooden curtain pole brackets are only for wall mounting.

We suggest a metal curtain pole for eyelet curtains for its durability with metal eyelets. Sometimes extra long curtain poles and heavy curtains require passing brackets and passing rings to help with the longer lengths and extra weight.

We all call them different things but they are all the same, a way of hanging your curtains on a piece of metal, wood or acrylic with finials (pole ends), brackets and curtain rings.

Although the industry standard is 1 ring per 10cm of curtain pole, we would recommend adding a few more – 1 extra ring per 30cm of pole – for smoother running and neat pleats, particularly on longer length curtain poles. Additional rings are available to purchase on each product page under 'Accessories'.
