Bay Windows are a great addition to almost any room. They open up a room like nothing else can, adding light and the appearance of space that is unmatched by nearly anything else. The problem is, it can be something of a hassle and even a downright dilemma to put up curtains for them because of their unconventional shape.
Fortunately there are several different rod options when it comes to window treatments for Bay Windows. And that’s what I’m going to discuss on this web page today, both the different types of rods; what your options exactly are, as well as what you can expect to pay and where you can find some deals.
Types Of Curtain Rods there are several types of options that you can use. The first one is simply called a bay window curtain rod! Next, you can use three curtain rods, or two curtain rods. Sometimes you can go to a specialty store and have them customize a single fitting curtain rod to your exact window dimensions and specifications. This may be a really nice-looking option, and very easy to install… the only downside is that you’re going to pay a lot more for the customization.
The reason why this customization cost so much money is because your windows are essentially made up of three separate windows. To have a single bay window curtain rod fit your window, it has to be bent just the right way and this requires special tools that are fairly expensive and not particularly easy to use, hence the excessive price. Of course you can’t go wrong with the look and ease of use that these rods bring to you because they allow you to pull all of your drapes to one side of the bay window if you want. You can do this if you use several individual singular rods separately.
Bay Window Curtain Rod Designs the design options for your rods are nearly infinite. You can expect to find just about any designed to meet just about any decor without much trouble. Some of the more popular designs include bole poll, square bay window rod, beaded ball, leaf and berries, bubble ball, glass knob, pineapple, forey, Ivy, swirl, Bishop, birds nest, pina, crackle ball, onion, spiral birdcage, ball, single and wide pocket, and bay window joiners which may be hard to find.
Those are just a very small sample of the different kinds of designs that you can expect to find. They are by no means an exhaustive list. Any curtain store can give you a huge catalog of design options that are available as well as a list of prices so you know exactly how much you can expect to pay for your bay window curtain rods.
Prices for Bay Window Curtain Rods: prices are a tricky subject when it comes to these things. Different designs vary wildly in price. Single curtain rods means that you’ll need three of them to cover each of your bay windows. Price ranges can start at the lower end around $20-$25 per rod, and quickly rise to the middle of the road $50-$75 per rod depending on how decorative you wish them to be. Higher end rods can cost $100 or much more per rod. And of course single bay window curtain rods that are customized to your exact window dimensions can cost much more than this depending on the exact store that you buy them from.
