Product Information

If none of these are doing it for you, you can still hang curtains without rods, but you may have to put some small holes in the wall (but you won’t have to use a drill). Magnetic curtain rods may be one of the most suitable options if you’re looking to install a curtain rod on your steel door without the hassle of drilling holes into it. Think about where you’ll be using magnetic curtain rods before you buy any. You need to know the measurements to ensure that the rod can fit the area, whether a window or door frame. Instead of being one length, most magnetic curtain rods are multi-purpose, versatile, and adjustable so that they may fit in several spaces. Be careful not to overextend adjustable curtain rods because doing so could weaken them as they are less durable than single-length ones. Design While plastic ones can hold 3 to 5 lbs, magnetic curtain rods made from high-quality steel or other sturdy metal can hold a weight ranging from 10 to 15 lbs.

A magnetic rod cannot be installed onto wood or drywall unless a strong glue is used to attach it to the door or wall. However, like in the previous case, the surface will certainly be damaged by removing the curtain rod. Moreover, if the curtains are made of heavy material, the adhesive might not be strong enough to hold them.

No matter what kind of curtains, rods, or rails you have. Adjusting the position With those perfectly measured pencil markings around your windows, it’s time to get creative. The way you use your curtains to frame your window can affect your entire interior. Although simple to use, magnetic curtain rods can typically not be used on drywall, non-metal, or wooden surfaces. It can make their placement constrained in several homes since home windows are usually built of some wood. Magnetic curtain rods are made from various materials, just like conventional ones, to match your desired style. The material that works well with the magnetic design is often metal, but there are also plastic versions.

Once you have them up, it’s time to use them! Different curtains will of course result in different looks in your home. For example, light and bright curtains make a room feel larger and more open, whereas dark and heavy ones can make it feel smaller and cosier.All you need to do is hang a hook on either side of the window and pop a rod it, and you’re done! If you want to open and clothes the curtains frequently, you will probably want to secure the rod to the hooks somehow (even some string could work) so that it doesn’t slip around.
