Would it be possible to adjust the width? For example, could I remove the end cap on the rod, cut the rod to a narrower width, put the end cap back on

Hello! Thank you for your interest in Whitmor products. Whitmor 6021-378 Ebony Chrome Collection Double Closet Rod features durable chrome and maybe a little hard to cut through. The rod however could be cut to your desired size and the end caps could be placed back on the rod. It would definitely be an easy DIY project. If you have additional questions regarding this item feel free to contact our Customer Service Department, Monday-Friday 8am-4:30pm (CST) at (888) 944-8667 or email us at help@whitmor.com. Have a great day!

I don't see why that wouldn't be possible, but not sure what you would use to cut it. It seems pretty durable.

Yeah you could probably do that with this, but you'd have to be careful as you would have a sharp end. Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.

You have to find some pliers and in tighten the metal pieces and adjust to the desired length. P.s. The instructions are on the back. Hoped I help.

I just installed the tension rod after checking here for an answer on whether the end caps can be removed. I originally found answers of "Yes", "No", and "I don't know". The real answer is the first one... Yes. If you secure the tube so that it doesn't rotate with the end cap you'll be able to slide the end cap off of either end. Make certain that you're not spinning the rod along with the cap.

I had the same problem. My solution was my local Homedepot (or any hardware store) and purchased 1/4 thread rod and a union ( joins 2 threaded rods), cut it to fit and works great. Just take one of your end pieces with you and explain to an associate you dilemma and they will gladly set you up.

You cannot. You could probably re-drill the screw holes and adjust it that way.

Yes I am sure you could. Simply cut off a few inches on each piece. The issue is the spring loaded insert that goes through the holes to determine the length. It probably could be moved with a pop rivot.

Hello, Yes the one end of the rod has a very nice and finished adjuster. There is about a 1/2 of adjustment. The rod is simple to cut. Make sure to take exact measurement. You will certainly like this product! Hope this was helpful.

If you twist the raised ring somewhat near the lamp counterclockwise, you can move that part of the lamp in and out of the other rod, so it's either longer or shorter. A friend assembled mine for me, and he set it to maximum length. When I went to shorten it, I thought the part that moves was *very* stiff and hard to shove down into the larger rod. It also didn't adjust as much as I expected, or I couldn't get it to go in much more than 6-7 inches.

Yes, it can be cut to fit any length. It has removable caps that fit over the ends that adjust a little. I cut the one I ordered to fit my shower. This is a good quality rod and I am content with my purchase.

The directions say to extend the rod about an inch longer than the opening required. Lock it before you try to put it in place. If you still have the directions they are pretty easy to follow. Hope this helps.

Yes, the length can be adjusted, it you will need a crimping tool. It takes a while and a LOT of precise measuring. Also just fyi, the lighting is not UL approved, so if you want to be sure it is not a fire hazard, it is a good idea to rewire it.

Yes I cut mine down a little as well, to make it fit. Be careful to get the length correct. If you cut it too short you are shall we say "screwed". Better to err on the long side as you can always cut off more. There is a small fudge factor involved. I used masking tape at the cut line to make sure I didn't scratch the finish, I got the brown-colored pole. Am happy with the purchase.

No you cannot adjust the width because the curved, horseshoe shaped blade is just one size, about 1/4".

The packaging does not indicate the width of the rod itself. I judge it to be about an inch and a little more, It is very hard to measure unless you take the end parts off, and I did not want to do that.

manufacturer specs show minimum width 35"......if you cut the rod shorter than spec, it probably won't fold as designed

Yes, it's very adjustable. You can remove sections of the rods if required.

You can NOT adjust the width. The only way to do this is to use a diff. cutter. The depth MAY be somewhat adjusted by inserting the blade less or further. Adjustment this way is affective. GREAT little tool though!!
