Bay window curtain pole, the custom job for a perfect fitting window treatment

Although you can find an “install-it-yourself” bay window curtain pole, there are several issues that you need to be aware of. You probably already know how important getting the right measurements for your bay window curtains: the curtain pole is a critical element that you need to get right, right from the start.

Curtain poles for your bay windows are usually available in three kinds: curtain poles with corner joining pieces, poles and rails that can be bent on site when fitting, and poles that are custom bent to your specifications. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but it’s safe to say that the custom bent curtain poles offer you the best looking results.

If you choose to have your bay window curtain pole custom bent, check and double check all your measurements: it will only be as good as you specify. Or else, if you don’t have the time, or want to save a few dollars, you can get the type of pole that you can bend at will at fitting time. If you do it properly, the end result will be very close to what you can achieve with the custom bent curtain pole.
