In the same way that fireplace mesh can be less effective over time, so can the curtain rod! Our 36 inch stainless steel mesh curtain rod made from high quality materials will keep embers and sparks from escaping your fireplace. Adjust the rod length to exactly fit your fireplace by simply field cutting it with a hacksaw and metal blade. Make sure the person cutting the rod is familiar with the tools being used. A bypass rod is one continuous piece of rod that you install. There will be overlapping of the mesh in the center where the roundabout is due to the shape of the rod. NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU ORDER THE CORRECT SIZE BYPASS ROD SO THAT ENDS GO INTO YOUR FIREBOX FOR SUPPORT. THE ROD NEEDS TO BE A MINIMUM OF 1" WIDER THAN YOUR FIREPLACE OPENING. DOES NOT INCLUDE MESH CURTAIN. Click here to view standard mesh curtains.

NOT INCLUDED: Utilize self-tapping screws for installing the mesh curtain rod Product Manual: Bypass Mesh Curtain Rod Selecting the correct Mesh Curtain Rod: When selecting a mesh curtain rod for a fireplace, the choice between a straight, angled, or bypass design depends on the specific needs of your fireplace opening and how you want the mesh curtain to function. Here's a breakdown of each type and their ideal use cases: 1. Straight Mesh Curtain Rod: How It Works: A straight rod extends horizontally across the top of the fireplace opening, allowing the mesh curtain to hang down in a straight line. Ideal Use: Best suited for standard, flat fireplace openings where the curtain needs to cover the opening directly in front without any obstruction. It provides a simple, clean look and is easy to install and operate. 2. Angled Mesh Curtain Rod: How It Works: Angled rods are designed to fit fireplace openings that are not perfectly square or rectangular, having corners or edges that might not be at 90-degree angles. The rod can be bent or adjusted to match the specific angle of the fireplace opening. Ideal Use: Perfect for custom or non-standard fireplace shapes where a straight rod would not align properly with the opening. This allows the mesh curtain to fully cover uneven edges or angled sides, ensuring full coverage and protection. 3. Bypass Mesh Curtain Rod: How It Works: Bypass rods allow for two mesh curtains to overlap and slide past each other, typically using two parallel rods or a double-track system. This design enables easy opening and closing of the curtains, similar to how a curtain on a window might work. Ideal Use: Ideal for larger fireplace openings or for those who prefer the flexibility of partially opening the mesh without exposing the entire fireplace. This is also beneficial when you need to access the fire without moving the entire curtain aside, providing both convenience and safety. When choosing between these rod types, consider the shape and size of your fireplace opening, the level of customization needed, and how you intend to use the mesh curtain. Each rod type offers different benefits, so selecting the one that best fits your fireplace's requirements and your personal preferences is key to achieving both functionality and aesthetic appeal .
