Measuring for floating café curtain rods

 

Here's how to get the perfect fit with our signature floating café curtain rods:

• Provide the full width of the rod you need - this includes the finials on each end.
• The finials sit on small hooks, as shown above. Make sure you have space to screw these hooks into a suitable surface - usually the outer frame, casing, or architrave.
  
• If you're fixing to a sliding sash window, plan to fix your rods to the casing outside the sliding portion.
  
• When measuring for a bay window, remember to leave a small, even gap between the rods in each corner, for a neat finish.

An ideal setup is illustrated below. As always, please get in touch with any questions.

 

 

To measure up, simply find the exact width of your recess.

We'll supply a finished rod that's ever-so-slightly shorter than your measurements. 

This fitting allows for small adjustments, allowing you to make your finished rod up to ~0.3cm longer in situ. This helps guarantee a snug fit.

Tip: It's best to measure at the point you want to mount the rod. If you have a period property, you'll likely know that some walls can be uneven or sloping.
