black cage curtain rod

Black cage curtain rods are typically telescoping to fit a range of window widths. The options shown adjust from about 28 inches up to about 130 inches, covering narrow to very wide windows.

Weight capacity varies by model. Some adjustable iron rods list a 25-pound capacity. In general, 5/8" diameter rods are described for light-to-medium weight curtains, while 3/4" diameter rods are described for light-to-heavyweight curtains. Always check the specific product listing for an exact capacity.

Cage finial rods work with common curtain headers, including rod pocket, pinch pleat, clip rings, grommets, tab top, and back/hidden back tab styles.

Wipe the finished rod and finials with a dry cloth. Avoid household cleaners and harsh abrasives that can damage the finish.

Common diameters shown include 5/8", 3/4", and 1". Materials listed for these rods are steel and iron.

Options include inside-casing tension rods that install without tools, and wall-mounted telescoping rods that use projection brackets. Wall-mounted sets typically include mounting hardware such as screws and drywall anchors.

Projection varies by style: tension/inside-casing installations show 0 inches; many wall-mounted cage rods project about 3 inches; some decorative metal rods project about 3.5 inches.

Most sets include the telescoping rod, decorative finials, mounting brackets, screws, drywall anchors, and installation instructions. Some larger or longer rods also include a center support.

These rods are shown for living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, dining rooms, bathrooms, and kids' rooms. Tension/inside-casing rods mount inside the window frame for smaller casings, while larger telescoping rods are intended for bigger windows and for use with heavier curtains.
