Know before you buy
The rod has a 1.25-inch diameter. This size is compatible with most standard curtain grommets, rings, and rod-pocket drapery.
The telescoping design allows for a seamless fit, but because the inner rod is slightly narrower than the outer rod, you may feel a slight bump when sliding curtains over the connection point. We recommend using curtain rings to ensure the fabric glides smoothly across the transition.
Yes, the rod is engineered to support up to 30 pounds regardless of the length selected. However, it is essential to use all provided brackets to ensure the weight is distributed evenly and the rod remains secure.
The brass finish is durable and designed for daily use. To keep it looking its best, simply dust it periodically with a soft, dry cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the finish.
The number of brackets varies based on the length you choose to ensure proper support. Shorter rods typically include two brackets, while longer lengths come with three to prevent the rod from bowing in the center.
