Measuring up

Measuring up for a 25mm Recess Curtain Pole is a simple job and requires just two quick steps:

  1. Firstly, where is the pole going to go? Stand back, look at the window, and check that there are no obstructions or fittings in the way of a straight mount across the window.
  2. Measure the full recess width, we take into account the width of the brackets to ensure a perfect fit. Remember to measure in centimetres.

Also, in the video below, Richard explains how to take measurements before ordering.

How to measure for your Recess Curtain Pole

Reviews

You supplied us with a 20mm recess curtain pole earlier this year and we were delighted with it.

You are welcome to use the photo I sent. You might also be interested in this as well which you supplied in 2020. We are absolutely delighted with this pole too since it looks so minimal with our modern slim profile sliding doors. Do use this too if you like.

Couple of pics from the recent curtain pole you did for us.

The angle mounts were spot on.

Not the easiest of windows to do but hey what do you expect in a 500 year old cottage!

This has really finished off this room, thank you.

Thank you for our recess curtain pole with brackets. We received it yesterday and have put it up over our front door this afternoon. Such a beautifully well made piece which looks great and considerably reduces the drafts.
