Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order a custom length?
Add the rod to your quote list and include the finished track length, draw side preference, and mount surface in the quote note. The track is cut and confirmed during quote review before release.
What panels work on a traverse rod?
Pinch pleat and other hook-top panels ride in the glides with standard drapery hooks. The Vanguard Shade pinch pleat lined panel is sized for this rod.
Is the cord loop safe for homes with children?
The included tension pulley anchors the cord loop to the wall so it stays taut. Install it at the recommended height and keep cords out of reach of cribs and furniture.
Can panels open to one side only?
Yes. Center open is standard, and a one way draw to either side can be requested in the quote note and confirmed during quote review.
