Rod length

Face fit brackets - using a pencil, mark the centre point of each proposed bracket position (typically the mid point of each window jamb). The distance between these 2 points is your rod length.

Recess fit brackets - note the entire span of the recess, minus 2cm. This is your rod length.

#3

cut the rod

Brass is easy to cut using a simple hacksaw, any shop bought hacksaw will work (an angle grinder can also be used, if you're confident).

Measure twice, cut once - you can cut the rod twice, but you cannot put rod length back!

#4

Positioning

- Assemble your curtain & rod.

For pocket style - slide the rod inside the pocket found at the top of the curtain. To avoid snagging we recommend leading with the smooth uncut end of the rod.

For pleated style - first count the number of hooks the seamstress has placed in your curtain, take the same amount of rings from the package and slide onto the rod. Clip each hook into each corresponding ring.

- Place 1x bracket on the end of the rod & offer curtain & pole up to the window.

We recommend allowing at least 1cm clearance between curtain bottom hem & window sill.

- Once the first bracket position has been determined, mark through top screw hole with your pencil.

- Place all items down in a clean area.

Fixing brackets

Using the pencil mark created during the previous step install the first bracket.

At this point install only the top screw & tighten down to 90% only.

*Please note! The supplied screws are genuine brass and therefore delicate, excessive force can lead to screw breakage

#6

COMPLETE INSTILATION

- Assemble the remaining cafe curtain & pole set.

- Slide the rod into the first bracket previously mounted on the window. Use your spirit level to ensure a level fitment.

-Once final position for second bracket has been determined, screw this bracket into place. We recommend you install top screws only, then review your work.

Once happy positioning is 100% correct, finish by installing bottom screws.
