How the Crossbar Works

Weight rating: Uprights and crossbars are rated to carry 35 lb (22.65 kg) evenly distributed across the crossbar.

How the Adjustable Upright Works

The slip-lock collar assembly automatically secures the inner pole once raised to your desired height. As downward pressure is applied, the ball-taper lock mechanism tightens for a stable hold. The greater the downward force, the stronger the lock.

How to Adjust

Raise: Lift the inner pole to your desired height—it locks automatically.
Secure: Add vertical weight and the mechanism tightens to hold firmly in place.
Release: Slightly raise the inner pole and lift the release ring to disengage.
Safety: Always hold the inner pole firmly when raising or lowering.

⚠️ SAFETY DISCLAIMER

It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure all hardware is properly assembled, secured, and used as intended. The installer must evaluate the installation area, intended use, surrounding conditions, and take any additional precautions necessary to maintain a safe and stable setup.

Uprights & Bases
Depending on the height, drapery weight, location, surface, and surrounding conditions, uprights may require additional reinforcement or stabilization. This may include sandbags, additional weights, tie downs, securing the system to an appropriate stable structure, or other suitable methods. The installer is responsible for determining when additional stabilization is necessary.

Crossbars
Crossbars are designed to connect into the designated slots on the uprights and settle into position. Depending on the installation and application, additional securing methods such as zip ties, safety ties, or tie downs may be appropriate to provide greater stability and help prevent accidental movement or disconnection.

Every installation is different. The person or company assembling and using the hardware is responsible for determining the appropriate setup and level of reinforcement required for their specific application.

Always inspect all hardware before use and never use damaged, improperly assembled, or unstable equipment.
