Step 1 – Measure & Mark

  1. Decide where you want your curtain rod to be mounted — wall or ceiling.

  2. Use a tape measure to mark the bracket positions on each side of the window.

    • Brackets should extend 10–15 cm beyond the window frame on each side to allow curtains to open fully.

    • Ensure brackets are level and evenly spaced using a spirit level.


Step 2 – Fix the Brackets

  1. Drill holes at your marked points.

  2. Insert wall plugs if fixing into masonry or plasterboard.

  3. Secure the brackets firmly using the provided screws.

(Tip: Use extra brackets for rods longer than 2.5 m for better support.)


Step 3 – Assemble the Rod

  1. Extend the rod to your desired width by sliding the inner pole outward.

  2. Attach the finials to both ends of the rod.

  3. If using double brackets, install both rods — front for decorative curtain, rear for sheer.


Step 4 – Hang the Curtains

  1. Thread your curtains onto the rod (eyelet or tab top), or attach curtain rings or hooks if using pleated curtains.

  2. Gently place the rod onto the brackets.

  3. Ensure it sits securely and adjust the extension if necessary.


Step 5 – Final Check

  • Test the rod by drawing the curtains open and closed.

  • Tighten all screws and check for level alignment.

  • Clean the rod and finials with a soft dry cloth.


Additional Notes

  • Avoid overextending the rod beyond its stable range.

  • Do not hang excessively heavy curtains beyond the recommended weight.

  • Optional double brackets are available separately.
