FAQs

Can this be used for heavy curtains?

No, this product is designed specifically for voiles and lightweight curtains only.

Can I cut the wire to fit a small window?

Yes, the wire can be easily cut to your required length using standard wire cutters.

Is the wire flexible enough for arched windows?

While the wire has some flexibility, it is intended to be installed in a straight line under tension; it may not hold a permanent curved shape.

Does it come with mounting screws?

The kit includes hooks and eyes which screw directly into wooden surfaces.

Can I use this on a boat?

Yes, the lightweight and low-profile design makes it very suitable for boats and caravans.

Troubleshooting

The wire is sagging in the middle

Ensure the hooks are securely tightened and the wire was cut at a length that requires some tension to stretch into place.

The hook pulls out of the wood

Ensure you are drilling a small pilot hole before screwing in the hook to prevent splitting the wood and provide a tighter grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires only basic tools, such as scissors or wire cutters and a screwdriver.

  1. Measure your window width and add a small amount for the hooks.
  2. Cut the wire to the desired length using sturdy wire cutters.
  3. Screw the provided hooks into your window frame or wall.
  4. Screw the eyes into the ends of the curtain wire.
  5. Attach the eyes onto the hooks, pulling the wire taut.

For care, simply wipe the white plastic coating with a damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that might scratch the finish. If the wire begins to lose tension over time, you can remove one side and re-twist the eye further down the wire or adjust the hook position.
