A bay window is a striking feature of a property and something that you should really try to exploit, if you are lucky enough to have one. Bay windows are seen most frequently in period homes or more traditional properties, but they can also be seen in modern homes. Nevertheless, they are a sought-after interior design feature and something that you should aim to make a focal point of a room. The best way to do that is to install a bay curtain pole and hang some curtains.

If you have a bay window in your home, it is most likely to be either two, three or five-sided. Two-sided bays are usually made up of two equally sized windows meeting at a point. Three-sided bay windows usually have a large central window and two smaller windows either side, while five-sided bay windows usually have a large central window and two adjacent windows of a similar size. You may think that fitting a curtain pole to accommodate curtains in this space will be complex, and while a bay window curtain pole is non-standard, it can be manipulated to fit your bay space quite easily. Furthermore, bay curtain poles are becoming increasingly popular.

Why are bay curtain poles popular?

Bay curtain poles are an increasingly popular feature of homes because:

  • People appreciate that the bay is a striking feature of a home that should be exploited
  • A bay is an adaptable space that can be used for various reasons – reading, sitting, storage or a table
  • Curtains are the best way to add style and elegance to a bay window
  • Curtains create a warmer space in the bay than shutters or blinds
  • Bay curtain poles are not as difficult to install as you might think
  • Curtains can be opened quicker and easier and can hang neatly to maximise the additional natural light that bay windows provide

A bay may appear at face value to be an awkward space to hang a curtain pole and curtains, but the bay curtain poles supplied and fitted by CTS can work very well. Most homes are built to standard measurements in terms of a bay, but we also appreciate that this isn’t always the case, particularly with older, period homes Poles are custom bent off-site and made to match their windows.
