People have trouble installing the simplest things.
I ordered 6 of these for my house. I saw all the negative reviews about not being able to access the screw holes straight on. Really people can’t seem to install anything. It’s like their logic gets in the way of their common sense. I had zero - read ZERO - problems installing this. I added a video. And yes, I was holding my phone taking the video AND the curtain rod holder with my LEFT hand while screwing the thing in with my right hand while balancing on a ladder. Uh yeah, you can just screw it in from the side??? Geez- go figure. Admittedly, I did drill the initial hole for the plastic drywall peg at a slight downward angle, maybe about 10 degrees. You can see, however, it did nothing detrimental to the install. You mean the screw driver doesn’t have to be exactly straight on? Uh-yeahhhhh. I’ll let the video speak for itself. Even if you don’t have a power drill, a longnecked Phillips screw driver would most likely suffice. At least the bad reviews seemed to have knocked the price down. Lol.
