DIY Custom Curtain Rod - Steel Pipe - 15 FEET LONG
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- We needed a very long, custom curtain rod (15 feet) for our space. We decided to make our own out of 3/4" black steel pipe which can be found at the hardware store. We broke it down into 3 sections (over each window) so we could work with it in our space. This DIY curtain rod is very sturdy, beautiful, and easy to put together. It gives the room an industrial, modern feel.

Neat! Thanks for the video. Here's another option: I purchased the longest curtain rod kit from Bed Bath and Beyond Cambria Premier 88-144 inches and joined them together. The kit comes with two outer rods and one inner rod. They are easy to cut with a standard tubing cutter (for conduits and copper pipes). Cut the outer rods using the tubing cutter so the seams join where the rod supports will go. Use the inner rod to join two outer rods (wrap the inner rod in packaging tape so it is a snug fit inside the outer rods). Using this method will require 2 kits to cover your French doors and windows.
how much did this all cost?
Definitely very professional. Looks straight out of ELLE DECOR. You should be proud.
Cecilia cecilia thank you!
Very well done! I'm hanging patio grommet-ed drapes and believe this may work for me, but am not sure how this will look on the wood beams I'm hanging the curtain between. I'm using chain inside the bottom seam to weigh the curtains down - the steel pipe will definitely hold up on each 11 feet span. Thanks for posting (oh, and the pup outside brought a smile to my face)
Having trouble finding rods for my window. This is great! Thanks for sharing. I love the puddled look of the draperies. Great job!!!
Love how you and your husband worked as a team and did it together! Inspiring
Allyna Roman thank you!
best part of being married is you always have your best friend there to help you out
Thanks Girl, this was awesome, Gonna complete mine this week, and gonna spray paint the rod Gold for some extra Flare.
Sounds so cool!
Could you please include a parts list in the description?
I'm going to try making a curtain rod this week. Below is the parts she described in the video. I also searched online and found out that 1/4 inch diameter screws are needed to mount the flanges to the wall. I'm purchasing #14 x 1-1/2 in. pan head screws for my project. Hope this helps!
3/4 in. Black Steel Pipe (Custom cut but can be purchased in pre-cut lengths.)
3/4" FNPT Black Malleable Iron Cap
1/2" FNPT Black Malleable Iron Floor Flange
1" x 1/2" Black Malleable Reducing Tee with Female Threaded Fitting (1' x 1" x 1/2" - Left, Right, Top)
1/2" x 2" NPT Threaded Black Pipe Nipple Sch 40
1/2" FNPT Black Malleable Iron Floor Flange
3/4" FNPT Black Malleable Iron Coupling
@@techbop The creator really should have posted this info in her description! Thanks for taking the time to do it yourself!
Thank you!
You guys always have the best ideas! Thank you.
Kris Girardi thank you!
nice job guys, I just went and bought stuff today to do a large 186 inch sliding window, followed your steps to a T, except I spray painted the bar with metallic copper
GREAT! Diy design and materials! Love it! 💯
Cool idea! I'm sick of my old 1960's curtain rods but the gap between windows are too narrow. So I'm thinking about running one contentious rod about all three windows...but the rod would need to be 19' long. Hard to find something that long.
Thank you! I like this way way better than with elbows. Keep it up!
Wish you had listed the items etc and maybe also answer a few of the questions.
sincerelysaturday.com/diy-curtain-rods/ you may have better luck with items needed and advice from the original poster of this diy.
Looks beautiful. Thanks for awesome idea 💡 😀
Wonderful job!
Where did you find the long curtains?
I’m curious how long these anchors lasted, that’s a lot of weight.
Still going strong!
@@stephisimms thats great. I used anchors on my curtains, about 13 feet, and they continued to fail, even got the ones the ones that hold a ton of weight...I am currently making a pipe curtain rod like yours and going to mount with screws into the header!
Love this! Looks great. My only question is that when I went to look at the black iron pipes at HD there was white numbers all down the side...does the acetone take that off, or did you place it so that wouldnt be seen? Thanks so much!
Jen Herbert oh interesting! Is there a way you can test that out before you buy it all? I don’t remember ours having white numbers. You could perhaps rotate the pipe so that the writing faces the wall.
mine had numbers and writing as well, I light sanded the pipe then spray painted it, It covered them completely
Did you use any kind of anchor mount when screwing in?
Awesome idea.....turned out Beautifully!👍😎
Hi! Awesome video! Did you purchase the plumbing pipes and joints from Home Depot? I love that the did the cuts and threading in the store. Thanks for providing such great content 😊
I did! Thank you so much for watching!
Great work!
I subscribed immediately!

This is exactly what I was looking for!!!!
i guess I'm pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to stream new tv shows online ?
@Brody Brayden I would suggest FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Chris Allen yup, been using Flixzone for since april myself :)
@Chris Allen thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service :) Appreciate it!
@Brody Brayden Happy to help =)
pvc pipe sprayed?
thank you very helpful. What did you use for the curtains? they look nice
very cool!
You did not indicate where the couplings were placed nor how many were purchased.
Also there seems to be some endings on each side that were also not mentioned. What was used for this?
Marisela Ruiz each house is different and will want couplings placed in specific locations depending on your windows. It’s all preference and custom so this was just showing you what was possible.
Did you paint it, or keep its native color? I think I will be doing the same thing.
Didn’t paint it
@@stephisimms It looks great.
Where did you get the curtains
How many panels did you use
Great tutorial! Heading to the store right now ✅✅
