Effective & Attractive
This rod was much easier to install than a standard curtain rod. Its minimal profile provides less light leak than traditional curtain rods and looks very clean. The item was well-packaged and included all hardware needed to hang, including drywall anchors.
Tips:
-Make sure you measure and install at least 6-12 inches wider than the window on each side for maximum light leak control.
-Buy curtains wide enough to wrap around the rod corners and touch the wall without leaving a gap between the panels when closed. Otherwise, you will have more light leaking through the sides.
-Purchase longer curtains and install the rod well above the window height, otherwise light will leak through the top, reflect off the ceiling, and your room won't be as dark (and make sure your curtains go to the floor).
