Bespoke curtain poles made from iron are the perfect solution to hanging
heavyweight curtains, however, as with most bespoke items these can be very
expensive, an affordable alternative is to have a curtain pole which is made
from lighter weight metals which still provide a chunky and robust pole.
Matching metal curtain rings are included with the pole and a range of matching
or coordinating metal finials add the finishing touches.
Metal curtain poles are available in a variety of different finishes
such as brushed, polished, satin and graphite. Narrow metal poles lend
themselves beautifully for use with sheer voile and faux silk curtains, which
can either be attached with tab tops, matching curtain rings or eye-let headed
curtains providing a contemporary and minimalist look to a room.
For easy fitting options some designs of curtain poles are available
with extendable poles. These are idea for lighter weight curtains, while medium
and heavyweights curtains should ideally be hung by poles which are cut to the
correct size. Although there are some curtain poles which appear to be made of
metal are in fact made from lightweight plastic, these have a tendency to bend
if the curtains are too heavy. For those who prefer not do have any worries
regarding fixing the suspension holders there are extendable poles which work
on spring tension and are pushed onto each side of the walls. These should only
be used for lightweight curtains which are left drawn together for the majority
of the time otherwise there is a tendency for them to be pulled away from the
wall.
A country and cottage style of home or interior design compliments a
wooden curtain pole perfectly. The plain and simple style is the ideal way to
hang floral prints, checks and stripes which typify this interior design style,
with the curtains being hung from a series of wooden curtain rings. The curtain
have a taped header which has a plastic hook inserted at regular intervals, the
hooks are then hooked onto a small ring
Wooden poles which can be painted or stained to match existing home
décor colours provides a variety of different individual looks to suit any
room. Cornice curtain poles are traditionally wooden curtain poles with a large
diameter which are used to hang heavy weight curtains over a large expanse of
glass.
Metal curtain pole finales which have coordinating curtain hold backs
provide a window with all the finishing touches which enhance the beauty of
both the room and the curtains. There are many different varieties and styles
available such as the ever popular simplistic ?shepherd’s crook’ and plain ball
ends.
Magnetic , if they curtains
are only made in lightweight fabrics it is possible for the metal plate to be
glued into place to form a contact with the magnet.
