Poles apart . . .




Choose from three wrought iron curtain pole styles - smooth, rope twist and traditionally forged cottage poles.

Smooth curtain poles come in three standard diameters: 16mm, 22mm and 32mm.

Rope twist curtain poles are formed from four strands of fine round bar twisted to create a rope and come in 25mm diameter only.

Cottage poles are fully forged solid poles supplied in a single piece. Available in 12mm or 16mm diameters, these are particularly suitable for small, cottage-style windows and give a very traditional look.

Curtain rings and hooks are available for all of our poles.

Technical information about our wrought iron curtain poles -

Our high quality, thick-walled tubular steel poles offer strength and rigidity whilst minimising weight on the wall fixings. In larger diameters, hollow wrought iron curtain poles are stronger and less liable to flex than an equivalent solid pole. In addition, our experience shows that solid poles over 16mm in diameter are so heavy that they place excessive strain on wall fixings and plaster; especially when combined with heavy curtains.

Smooth curtain poles come in 3 standard diameters: 16mm, 22mm and 32mm. We can make smooth poles to any length but for delivery purposes we'll need to split poles exceeding 2.8m in length. We joint the poles using a solid insert which, when secured with a concealed grub screw, is almost invisible. The joint is then completely obscured by the central support bracket.

Rope twist poles are more decorative and much heavier than an equivalent smooth pole and by their nature are more flexible. For this reason they cannot be used to span long distances and cannot be used with hook support brackets. The maximum recommended length for a rope twist pole with 3 brackets is 2.5m.

Depending on the overall length of the pole, even the 16mm diameter smooth pole will comfortably support floor length lined curtains.

All prices are calculated per cm (subject to a minimum pole price of £25) and can be finished in either of our surface finiahes.
