How to fit curtain poles into a bay window?

[diyreg]

I've got a 3m wide windows in a bay with 90 degree sides coming out. I would fit 3 curtains and poles to cover this bay, but would it be possible with one pair of curtains and one pole?

What would be normal practice for this?

I don't know if you can get poles that will form corners effectively, but you certainly can get bendy curtain rails for the hooks to run along which you can bend round the corners and then run 1 pair of curtains.

How these, or any poles with corners if such a thing exists, will work with 90 degree corners however I'm not sure, they work well with the wider open bay windows though.

I suppose the other thing to consider would be what volume of material at either end of the run with just one pair of curtains.

There are many bay window poles available to fit all sorts of angled bays. These have special rings which allow a single pair of curtains to pass over all the fixing brackets.

Here's just a sample of whay you can get:
