Fashion Rodding is a bendable, aluminum I-Beam with hook fastening tape incorporated on the face. It can be used for valances, stationary curtain panels, and stretch panels. Fashion Rodding is bendable by hand to form any size returns and to fit into bay and bow windows. Fashion Rodding is user friendly as it may be bent many times without breaking. It can be cut with a hacksaw or large tin snips. It can be ceiling mounted, wall mounted, or attached to a vertical track or drapery rod on extension plates for one-step installation.

ADVANTAGES over Rod Pocket and Valance Board Installations

  • Lightweight
  • Support brackets do not interfere with rod pockets
  • Easy to remove for washing and to put back in place
  • No rod showing through rod pocket with sheer and lace fabrics
  • Rounded corners on returns
  • Staples or tacks are not necessary

Simplifies Bay and Bow Window Installations

  1. Cut rodding to needed length
  2. Bend returns or shape as needed.
    (Rodding may be re-bent several times without breaking)
  3. Wall mount – Install brackets and snap rodding into clips
    Ceiling mount – Slide clips onto rodding and install into ceiling.
    (To avoid damaging wall, leave a space up to ˝" between the wall and the edge of the rodding on the returns.)
  4. Brackets or ceiling clips need to be installed every 24-30 inches.

 

Use for Layered Treatments.
Fashion rodding may be made into multiple layer rodding for panel and valance combinations by attaching extra ceiling clips to the brackets. One piece of Fashion Rodding may be used for a double treatment by putting self-adhesive hook fastening tape on the backside of rodding. Curtain panels can be attached to the backside with a valance on the front side . . . or two part valances can be attached.

Additional Uses For Fashion Rodding

  • Arch shaped windows
  • Arch shape on wall to form headboard or other wall décor
  • Ceiling mount around bed or bathtub for canopy or privacy panels.
  • Bolt to swag holders to hold fabric in place between holders without sagging.

Fashion Rodding is available in lengths up to 8’9" (105") to meet UPS shipping size limits. It can be easily spliced by butting the two pieces of rodding together and placing an extra bracket on the splice. When the window treatment is in place, the splice is completely covered.
