Splicing
We utilize UPS for the shipment of all packages. Because there is a maximum package length allowed, we must splice any
rod which exceeds 105".
Here's how it works:
The longest single section of rod that can be shipped is 105". Any rod with a total length greater than 105" will ship in more than one piece,
and by default the rod will be divided into equal lengths. For example, a rod at 140" would be spliced into 2 @ 70".
A 270" rod would be spliced into 3 @ 90". For most corner and bay rods there will be one splice at each
corner. With our splicing method, any length of rod will look and function like one solid rod once installed:
Our splices are extremely sturdy, easy to setup, and are completely hidden once installed.
(Reference images below.)
Keep in mind that you'll want a bracket at the splice point(s) to help support the rod, and
the bracket also helps by completely hiding the seam. The splice is firmly
secured with set screws (provided) on the back side of each rod piece.
Steps:
Each side of the rod has a set screw for firmly securing the splice. The splice itself is typically 10" in
length and fits snugly inside the rod.
The splice is secured on one side of the rod, then the other.
Once installed, only a thin seam remains, which will be completely hidden behind the middle bracket,
thus making the rod appear one continuous, seamless rod.
