What it's used for

  • Curtain poles and hanging rails in domestic and light commercial settings
  • Furniture making, including chair stretchers, bed slats and cabinet framing
  • Dowel jointing as a clean alternative to screws or nails where a flush finish is needed
  • Craft, display and workshop projects requiring a solid round timber rod

Fitting and handling

Store the dowel rods flat and off the ground in a dry, ventilated space before use, and allow them to acclimatise to the room for at least 48 hours before fitting indoors to reduce movement after installation. Cut to length with a fine-tooth saw and sand lightly along the grain before applying your chosen finish, whether that is a clear oil, varnish or paint. For jointing applications, a snug fit in the corresponding hole is important, so test your drill bit size against the rod before committing to a full run of joints.

FAQ

What diameter is a 32mm dowel rod suitable for?

A 32mm dowel rod is well suited to medium to heavy-duty applications such as curtain poles, towel rails and structural furniture joints. It offers considerably more strength than a 12mm or 19mm rod and is a practical choice where load bearing or rigidity is needed.

Can I paint or varnish a light hardwood dowel rod?

Yes. Light hardwood takes most wood finishes well. Give the surface a light sand with 120-grit paper along the grain, wipe away dust, and apply your chosen oil, varnish or primer and paint. Two coats are usually sufficient for a durable indoor finish.

How long is the dowel rod and can it be cut shorter?

Each rod is supplied at 2400mm, which is a standard length allowing it to span most room widths for curtain poles or be cut into multiple shorter sections for joinery work. Use a mitre box or bench vice to keep cuts square.

Amazingly versatile
Color: E Black
Fun! It is really beautiful and easy to use. It is just about as big as your elbow to your fingers. It is great for necklaces and even bracelets and rings! It doesn’t shake unless you hang heavy necklaces on it. It is really stable otherwise though! It’s really easy to hang on the hook. If you have a clasp necklace, all you need to do is clasp it and put it on the stand. I’m amazed by the different types of jewelry you can put on, you can even put earrings on there but they might get lost so I don’t. Other than that so awesome!

Very great and nice for a nightstand
Color: Black, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8", Color: Black, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8"
Love the ability to have some of my more fragile items in here. A place where I can store without issue. The leather feels nice, it’s very sturdy, it’s a great black color, and I would get this again.

looks nice
Color: Brown, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8"
Little smaller in person than I expected but the quality is very nice and the tray looks great on the coffee table. It holds eyeglasses, TV remote and other items I didn't want possibly scratching the table. It looks in person just like the photos.

Bought this for my husband's nightstand. He keeps his cologne in this and he loves the deep green color. The material seems very nice and the product is good quality.

Nice to have
Color: Brown, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8"
Good: It's a good sized leather tray for the price. I'm able to keep my keys, wallet, tv remote, and watch flat within the box. There's not much else to say, it's a leather tray, it just... works. It gives me piece of mind knowing that I'll always find my accessories and belongings nicely tucked into this tray. Bad: I'm a fair reviewer, if a product wows me I'll say it wows me. This does not wow me in the craftsmanship department. The product I received contains the leather tray and a leather "floor". The leather floor is a separate piece that sits at the bottom of the tray which completes the complete leather look and provides some cushion to the things inside. This leather floor did not fit perfectly within the confines of the tray. One edge sits slightly tilted upward. To be completely fair, this is a very easy fix. I assumed that the stitching was simply applied too tightly and causes the floor to 'crunch'. I simply reduced the tightness of the stitching and it's perfect now. However, I cannot give it the full 5 star rating I wanted because not everyone is keen on solving issues like this. When people order things, I assume that most people would like a product that looks and feels great straight from the box. Verdict: Would still recommend. Despite this being a somewhat niche product it really helps with quality of life. I no longer have to go looking for my keys, wallet, or tv remote between my couch cushions. I know exactly where I'll find them every time and this saves an exponential amount of time in the mornings. As a bonus, the color is really nice and dark chocolate brown which goes with most things and leather is just a nice luxury to have.
