the rod seems to be about tile depth too long. Can I shorten the rod?

It may be possible, but I don't think it's worth it. It isn't adjustable if that's what you were hoping. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

The balls on the end are adjustable to account for a little difference in length for showers. If I recall, it gives you about an inch of wiggle room on each side. That should make it work for you.

It appears on mine that the rod and the two end pieces are separate pieces, so yes, I think you could cut the rod to the size you want (if you know how to do that). Mine looks very nice, by the way.

It's lucite. I think a hardware store or carpenter could cut it down, but there is no adjustable height mechanism.

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.

There are different holes you use for the bolts to set the height. If you want to have it taller or shorter, you need to unbolt the rods and use the holes you want. You can't set it anywhere in the range, just where the holes are.

It's a simple electric cord, not a rod, so you can shorten it as much as you'd like. I shortened mine a few feet but left about 6" of line curled up behind the top plate just in case I want to lower it sometime in the future.

After you shorten the chords at the center of the rod by pulling the chord and knotting them, you should have a loop that hangs done one side of the rod. put the loop into the tension device and attach the device to the wall where you want it with a screw through the hole in the device. It you decide that you want the device higher up the wall ( i.e., out of reach of little ones) you can shorten the chord more from the middle of the rod and re-knot it.

If the connecting rod is too long, you can just bend it more until it fits. If the rod is too short, then you are out of luck.

No. It has to do with the balance of the curtain on the rod. One curtain on each side. You could try it, but I don't think you will be pleased. One side of the hook is already longer. I guess you could use the longer side to the back side to maintain the balance on the rod...

I don't know for sure but I would say no. The longest part of the rod that fits onto the other part is over 34'". The two different sides have to fit together. I am afraid that the curve of fitting them together might not work cutting it that short. Just my opinion.

Yes you can. You must adjust and place the mechanism at the end of the rod in the correct position.

No. The rod ends have a roll up device that would not be easy to remove in order to change the length.

The arm is about 5 inches long from the point it leaves the wall to the first "bend" so there should be plenty of length regardless of your tile depth for the bar to clear.

The rod is adjustable from 52-71 inches. Sounds like you need a smaller one.

Yes, just cut the rod to size. The shaft that connects to the ceiling is about 1 1/2 inches and the set screw is near bottom, so there's room to fine tune the exposed length of the rod.

According to the manufacturer you can do flush mount, straight drop down or "angled ceiling" mount. You should be good to go with a longer rod that you'll have to purchase separately.

mounted on the short rod - I'm imagining the 3.5.. it hangs just about 16.5.. but it's very difficult to tell, could be .25 inches longer, but I don't think so..I was just trying to measure it.. it will be cutting it very close.. might want to flush mount, better safe than sorry?
