One of the most common questions we receive at Artisan Drapery Rod Company (ADR) is, “What rings go with my rod?” Understanding the compatibility between drapery rings and rods can be crucial for achieving both the desired aesthetic and functionality in your window treatments. In this blog, we’ll guide you through our various rod and ring options, ensuring you make the perfect choice for your project.
Our 1-inch scale line includes multiple rod styles, but not all 1-inch scale rings are compatible with all 1-inch scale rods. For example, our ¾-inch rope twist rod can fit a 1-inch ring, but the ring will only slide a short distance along the rod. Therefore, it’s not advisable to use a 1-inch ring on a ¾-inch rod.
For one-way draw draperies, we offer C rings, which are designed to bypass over special C ring brackets. It’s essential to note that these rings only work with our 7/8-inch metal rod and require a 1-inch scale C ring bracket for proper operation.
Our 2-inch scale line offers three distinct ring options, each providing a unique look while fitting seamlessly on any 2-inch scale rod:
For larger-scale projects, our 3-inch scale line features a 4-inch ring. This substantial ring is not only functional but also stylish enough to double as a bracelet! It fits perfectly on any 3-inch scale rod, providing a bold statement for any window treatment.
If you ever experience trouble with your rings sliding smoothly on your rods, our Ring Glide Tape is the perfect solution. Available in various sizes to fit different rod diameters, this tape creates a smooth gliding surface, ensuring effortless movement for your drapery rings.
How to Apply Ring Glide Tape:
Tip: Ring Glide Tape is especially useful for expandable rods, where a smaller rod extends from a larger rod. By applying the tape along the top, you create a seamless ramp for the rings to transition smoothly between rod sections.
