Silent Gliss 7640 - 50mm Corded Metropolitan Metal Pole

The Silent Gliss 7640 Metropole curtain pole offers the same weight capacity as the 7630 but features a bold 50mm diameter, making it ideal for high installations where a smaller pole might visually fade. The 7640’s internal corded system allows you to operate curtains without direct handling, preserving fabric and simplifying use. Custom-bent for bay windows, it’s best suited for larger bays or gradual curves due to its larger bend radius.

The Silent Gliss 7640 50mm Corded Metropole curtain pole is a striking, statement-making solution designed to stand out as the focal point in any room. This model combines the larger 50mm diameter of the 7620 Metropole with the convenient corded operation of the 7630, creating a curtain pole that is both visually impressive and exceptionally functional. Perfectly suited for large windows and high-ceilinged rooms, the 7640 is ideal for spaces where a strong, impactful design element is desired.

 

Effortless Corded Operation for Fabric Protection and Convenience

The Silent Gliss 7640 offers the benefit of a corded operation, allowing you to open and close your curtains effortlessly by pulling the cord, which helps to preserve delicate fabrics from wear and dirt by eliminating the need for direct handling. This feature is especially valuable in rooms with tall windows or in setups where furniture or architectural features might restrict access to the curtains, such as in bay windows. With the 7640, you can easily operate your curtains from the side, without having to maneuver around obstacles, making it both practical and stylish.

 

Designed for Large, Feature Windows

With a 50mm diameter, the 7640 is purposefully crafted to be a prominent feature in rooms with tall ceilings or expansive windows. The larger diameter does not increase the weight capacity but instead adds visual impact, making the pole itself an eye-catching statement. For bay windows, the 7640 can be custom-bent, although it’s best suited for bays over 400cm or wide, gradual curves. For smaller or standard bays, the 7630 or 7610 models may be more practical.

 

Wide Colour Selection and Custom Finial Options

Available in nine elegant colours, the 7640 Metropole offers a sophisticated palette designed to complement both contemporary and traditional interiors. It also supports the same range of designer finials available for the Silent Gliss 50mm poles, so you can personalise the look with choices that range from minimalist to bold. This customisation allows the 7640 to integrate seamlessly into any decor or to stand out as a design feature, depending on your style.

 

Superior Design for Smooth, Uninterrupted Curtain Movement

The Silent Gliss 7640 Metropole is engineered with separate channels for the gliders, cording mechanism, and brackets, ensuring that each component operates independently and smoothly. The gliders move effortlessly along the bottom channel without interference from the brackets, providing a seamless and quiet curtain operation every time. This unique, channelled design preserves the clean, streamlined look of the pole while allowing for easy, efficient operation.

 

Flexible Installation Options for Wall or Ceiling Mounting

The 7640 is designed with versatility in mind, offering a choice of top-fix brackets for ceiling mounting or face-fix brackets for wall installation. This flexibility ensures that it can adapt to various room layouts, and brackets are included at a rate of one every 60-80cm, ensuring a stable, secure fitting. Each pole comes pre-assembled with brackets and gliders, making installation straightforward.
