Shop Curtain Rods & Drapery Hardware at Kohl's for Every Style
When you think about refreshing a room, big items like sofas, rugs, or paint colors often come to mind first. But the true secret to a polished, cozy home lies in the details. Curtain rods and drapery hardware are the unsung heroes of interior design. They don't just hold up your curtains; they frame your view of the world, add architectural interest to your walls, and provide the finishing touch that ties your entire look together.
At Kohl’s, we believe that upgrading your windows should be easy, affordable, and fun. Whether you blackout curtains for a nursery, add a layer of privacy to your living room, or simply dress up a bare window, finding the right hardware is the first step. From modern matte black finishes to classic brass accents, our collection is designed to help you create a space that feels uniquely yours.
Discovering the Right Rod for Your Needs
Before you fall in love with a specific finial style or metal finish, it is helpful to understand the different types of curtain rods available. Each design serves a distinct purpose, offering unique solutions for light control, privacy, and installation ease.
Standard Single Curtain Rods
The single curtain rod is the most common choice for a reason. It is versatile, simple, and works with almost any window treatment style, from grommet-top panels to rod-pocket drapes. A single rod consists of a pole, two brackets, and decorative finials on the ends. This option is perfect if you only plan to hang one layer of fabric—either a standalone decorative panel or a functional blackout curtain.
When choosing a single rod, consider the weight of your fabric. A thin, telescopic rod might be perfect for lightweight sheers, but if you are hanging heavy velvet or thermal-lined drapes to keep the winter chill out, you will want a rod with a larger diameter (typically 1 inch or more) and sturdy brackets to prevent bowing in the center.
Double Curtain Rods for Layered Looks
If you love the look of luxury hotels or need maximum functionality, a double curtain rod is a game-changer. This hardware system features two parallel rods on a single set of brackets. The rod closer to the wall is usually thinner and designed for sheer curtains, while the outer rod holds your heavier decorative or blackout panels.
This setup offers the best of both worlds for busy families. During the day, you can pull back the heavy outer drapes to let sunlight filter through the sheers while maintaining privacy from the street. At night, simply close the outer layer for darkness and quiet. It is a practical solution that adds immediate depth and sophistication to bedrooms and living areas.
Tension Rods for Easy, No-Drill Installation
For renters, students in dorms, or anyone hesitant about drilling holes in the wall, tension rods are a fantastic solution. These rods work by using a spring mechanism to hold themselves in place inside the window frame. There are no screws, no brackets, and absolutely no damage to your walls.
While tension rods are incredibly convenient, they are best suited for lightweight curtains and smaller windows, such as those in bathrooms or kitchens. They offer a clean, minimalist look because the rod sits flush inside the frame (an inside mount), creating a streamlined appearance perfect for café curtains or simple valances.
Create a Home You Love
Updating your window treatments is one of the most high-impact, low-effort changes you can make to your home. It instantly softens the acoustics, adds texture, and introduces your personal style to a room.
Whether you are looking for a heavy-duty double rod for the master bedroom, a sleek brass accent for the living room, or a simple tension rod for a first apartment, Kohl’s has the selection to bring your vision to life. We offer trusted brands and a variety of styles to ensure you find exactly what you need at a value that makes you smile.
Take a moment to look at your windows. Imagine how a new matte black rod could frame that view, or how warm wood tones could cozy up your evenings. With the right hardware, you aren't just covering a window—you're opening up a world of style possibilities.
