Curtain Flick Sticks

Open Curtains Easily with Our Wide Range of Curtain Pull Rods and Flick Sticks

Operating curtains can come with a range of other dilemmas, including straining when reaching for tall curtains, fingerprints on sheer curtains, or yanking heavy drapes such as blockout curtains. Curtain pull rods, also known as flick sticks, are incredibly handy in these situations. These rods are slim poles usually made from plastic, fibreglass or metal that can be used to open and close curtains, without having to pull the fabric by hand. Curtain pull wands are extremely useful if you have delicate or light-coloured curtains that are going to show marks easily, and make it much easier to draw curtains closed if you have tall windows or heavy drapes. At Spotlight, you can shop a range of curtain pull rods to streamline the operation of your curtains and elevate the appearance of your window dressings.

What is a Curtain Pull Rod?

A curtain pull rod is a simple, yet practical curtain accessory that is used to open and close curtains without the need to touch the fabric. It attaches to the leading edge of the curtain, allowing you to draw it smoothly along the track or rod with ease, helping to keep your curtains cleaner for longer. Curtain pull rods are also referred to as a curtain wand, flick stick, drapery wand, draw rod and baton. Although the names vary, the function remains the same.

Why a Curtain Pull Rod is a Smart Little Addition to Your Setup

A curtain flick stick makes the everyday operation of your curtains easier and more convenient. They bring about a number of benefits, including:

• Keeps fingerprints, oils, and marks off curtain fabric
• Protects delicate fabrics like sheers, whites, and velvets
• Makes tall and high windows easy to reach
• Handles heavy drapes with less strain
• Extends the curtain's lifespan by reducing fabric tugging
• Helps shorter folks, older users, and kids draw curtains with ease
• Reaches curtains tucked behind sofas, beds, and dressers

Picking the Right Pull Rod For Your Curtains

Choosing the right curtain pull rod comes down to a few details. Start with length. Measure from your curtain rod to where your hand naturally lands. For taller or harder-to-reach windows, extendable pull rods are a practical alternative. Most pull rods are usually sold individually, so keep that in mind when shopping, as you'll want one for each side of a curtain pair. Next, consider the material. Spotlight offers a range of materials and colours when it comes to curtain pull rods. Opt for clear acrylic for an almost-invisible look or choose a white metal for a classic feel.

Curtain Styles That Pair Perfectly With a Pull Rod

Because the flick stick needs to be attached to the curtain or a curtain track glider, it is not suitable for use with eyelet, tab top or rod pocket curtains. Any curtain that has header tape attached, runs along a track or hangs from curtain rings will be able to have a flick stick attached to it. Spotlight's S-Fold, pencil pleat or any curtains running on a track with gliders or on a rod with rings typically work best with curtain flick sticks.

Get Your Curtain Pull Rod Up and Working in Minutes

Installation of pull rods is incredibly easy. Simply follow the steps below to complete the installation:

• Locate the first glider, ring, or carrier arm at the leading edge
• Hook the pull rod's loop through it
• Repeat on the other side of the pair
• Pull horizontally to open, push back to close
