A Simple Guide To Purchasing Curtain Poles Online
Buying a suitable curtain rod online may seem like a simple task, yet selecting the right curtain rod can determine whether or not your curtains or drapes hang correctly. So, if you want your curtains to look their best it’s essential you select the right curtain pole for your individual needs. Below are some points to consider which will make buying your curtain rod online as straightforward as it can be.
Choosing The Best Diameter
The diameter of your curtain rod is extremely important, the diameter usually determines how strong the curtain rod is and therefore how much weight it will be able to hold. If you are looking at hanging lightweight, sheer curtains then the diameter of your curtain pole will not be too much of an issue. However, if you are purchasing a curtain rod for heavier curtains then be sure to choose a rod that is thick enough to hold the curtains without bending. Quickfit offers curtain rods in a range of diameters to suit curtains of all different weights.
Choosing the Best Length
Choosing a curtain rod that is the correct size for your window is crucial. You’ll need to choose a curtain rod that is long enough to cover the entire window, allowing your curtains to perform correctly. To ensure you don’t end up buying a curtain rod that is too small you’ll need to measure your window carefully. Ensure your tape measure is level and flush with the wall, then measure the entire window being sure to start your measurement from outside of the window frame. It’s also important to remember that your curtain rod will be fixed above the window, so try to measure as close to where you intend to install the curtain rod and check there are no obstructions.
Installing your curtain rod above the window in this way is done for a reason. One of the main reasons being that it will stop the curtain rod blocking the window in any way when the curtains are open. Some people prefer to fix their curtain rod higher up, closer to the ceiling. This can create the illusion that your windows are much larger and it could also help make your curtains become a real statement within the space.
