Stainless Steel Cable Tensioning Systems and Sets

Axial and Lateral

As an alternative to our curtain rods, we offer high-quality, simple cable tensioning systems that can span distances of up to 10 meters. The cable tensioning sets are available in axial (wall to wall) or lateral (mounted on the window front) versions.

Our modern and functional cable tensioning set can be adapted to any room situation. A room corner can be overcome with a corner deflector. And if sagging threatens, it can be easily tightened with a cable tensioner. Individual lengths are also possible from the ceiling, as well as wall distances according to measure with a lateral "side mounting". Solutions for corners and niches are possible depending on the variant. Suitable accessories for attaching a curtain such as cable hooks and a cable clamp, as well as curtain rings, complement the possibilities.

A complete cable tensioning set looks modern and can be adapted to very different room situations through the use of numerous functional solutions. A room corner can be overcome with a corner deflector. And if sagging threatens, it can be easily tightened with a cable tensioner. This property of stainless steel cables, caused by the strand elongation, can be prevented by planning with our tension rod.

Axial Cable Tensioning Systems – from Wall to Wall

PHOS axial cable tensioning systems – for projects with high demands on function, aesthetics, and craftsmanship. Our axial cable tensioning system from wall to wall is designed for spans of up to 5 m, offering a clear, minimalist design and utmost precision in detail. It is suitable for use in private living spaces as well as in demanding commercial areas where lasting quality and a calm architectural effect are required. To support longer spans with heavy curtains, we offer

The carrier and mounting elements are made of solid stainless steel and are crafted from solid material. The surfaces are brushed, finely polished, and hand-finished with a silky matte finish. This results in components with a high-quality feel, precise contours, and timeless appeal. Each element is carefully crafted in our workshop and designed for long-lasting use.

The axial cable tensioning system is designed for installation between opposite walls. Additionally, individual installation situations can be reliably realized – for example, from wall to ceiling, on slanted walls, in attic slopes, niches, bay windows, or in architecturally unusual room situations. The flexible adjustability of the cable length allows the system to be precisely tailored to the specific installation situation.

Axial cable tensioning sets are particularly suitable for curtains, room textiles, or light partitions where an elegant and unobtrusive guidance is desired. The minimalist construction emphasizes the space without visually burdening it. At the same time, it provides a robust and technically convincing solution for daily use.

Origin and craftsmanship define the quality of each system. Manufactured with meticulous German craftsmanship, with high standards for material, precision, and sustainability. The result is an axial cable tensioning system that combines technical function, architectural clarity, and lasting value in a particularly harmonious way.

Lateral cable tensioning systems - developed for projects with high demands on function, aesthetics and workmanship. Our lateral cable tensioning system is designed to run parallel to the wall and forms an outstanding product line for modern window solutions, textile interior design and architecturally minimalist interior fittings. It combines a clear design language with high material quality and a durable, precise construction.

The support and mounting elements are made of solid stainless steel. The surfaces are brushed, finely polished, and hand-finished. This results in high-quality components with a silky matte appearance, clear contours, and a pleasant feel. The careful workmanship makes each system a durable solution for living spaces, bathrooms, offices, and commercial applications.

The lateral cable tensioning system is mounted along the window or parallel to the wall and is particularly suitable for the linear guidance of curtains and textiles. Depending on the spatial situation, the installation can be done on the wall or ceiling. Even in challenging installation situations, the system offers convincing solutions – for example, with sloping ceilings, angled wall profiles, niches, bay windows, or other unconventional room geometries.

A key advantage lies in its individual adaptability. The length of the tension cable can be precisely adjusted to the respective dimensions. This allows the system to be precisely integrated into the architectural situation and supports a calm, tidy room effect. At the same time, the construction remains delicate and unobtrusive without compromising stability.

Lateral cable tensioning systems are ideal when a modern, discreet alternative to traditional curtain rods or rail systems is sought. They appear light, technically precise, and high-quality. Manufactured in German craftsmanship from solid stainless steel, they stand for durability, clear design, and reliable function – even with long-term use and in demanding applications.

Cable tensioning systems for shower curtains

Showers and niches, also for bathtubs in niches

Our cable tensioning systems for shower curtains have been specially developed for use in showers, alcoves and bathtub areas. They connect opposing walls with unobtrusive, functional lines and enable elegant guidance of shower curtains with spans of up to 3 metres. Particularly in niches and bathtubs between two walls, they offer an elegant yet resilient solution that blends harmoniously into modern bathroom architecture.

The fittings are made entirely of stainless steel and are designed for long-term moisture-resistant use. The stainless steel cable with Ø 1.5 mm in 1x19 construction impresses with its high tensile strength, low elongation and clear, calm appearance. The Ø 12 mm brackets are made of solid stainless steel and are precision-brushed and finely polished. The result is a durable system with a high-quality feel and timeless design.

The cable length can be customised on site. This makes the system suitable both for standardised installation situations and for dimensionally accurate solutions in existing buildings. The bolted wall fastening ensures high stability and secure tensioning of the cable. All components are designed for clear functionality, easy maintenance and a long service life in the bathroom.

For larger spans or higher curtain weights, we recommend using suitable intermediate cable supports, which additionally stabilise the cable and support an even course. Stainless steel curtain rings and other accessories are also available to match the function and design of our cable tensioning systems.

As part of the modular PHOS system family, the shower curtain cable tensioning systems can be combined with other stainless steel components. They are suitable for new builds, renovations and retrofitting bathrooms. Manufactured from brushed V2A stainless steel solid material and with hand-polished surfaces, they represent a durable, high-quality solution that combines function, material quality and architectural restraint in a convincing way.

Curtain Rings + Accessories

Curtain rings, hooks and accessories for cable tensioning systems

Curtain rings, hooks, and matching accessories for cable tensioning systems are far more than complementary details – they complete the system in function, comfort, and design. PHOS Design offers coordinated components for all PHOS cable tensioning systems, made from high-quality solid stainless steel in Karlsruhe. The accessories are precisely crafted, durable, corrosion-resistant, and designed to match the clear design language of our cable tensioning sets.

Our curtain rings and hooks impress with timeless design and high everyday usability. Depending on the version, the curtain rings have an integrated scratch protection for easy and quiet gliding of the curtain on the tension cable. Alternatively, minimalist versions in pure stainless steel are available. For curtains without eyelets or loops, we offer special solutions for simple and secure attachment. Additionally, a curtain ring with pleat hooks Ø 30 mm, width 3 mm, for rods Ø 12 mm is available.

Suitable accessories include intermediate rope supports with standard wall distances of 4.4 cm, 6.9 cm, and 8.9 cm – tailored to the respective system – as well as special dimensions with freely selectable axis dimensions from 3 to 20 cm. From a span of 4 m or for heavy curtains, we recommend using an intermediate support, and for spans over 10 m, two. Rope corner deflectors enable seamless rope guidance through inner corners and are designed to match the respective wall distance of the system. For this, a hole of Ø 8 mm in the corner is required.

The range is complemented by rope stoppers for NIRO wire ropes Ø 1–2 mm to fix the curtain at the desired position, by replacement rope NIRO Ø 1.5 mm in 10 m length, as well as by a side cutter for precise shortening of the wire rope on-site. For a clean result, the interface should be tightly wrapped with adhesive tape before shortening to prevent wire fraying. This creates a consistently high-quality accessory program for durable, precise, and aesthetic cable tensioning solutions.
