To secure the curtain rack, first determine the position of the hole at the top of the window for nailing the cork. The height at which the curtains are installed depends on the total height of the room. When the room height is 2.5-2.7 meters, it is best to set the curtain rack close to the ceiling. In this way, the window opening will appear larger and the room will appear taller. As needed, chisel or drill several large holes with a diameter of 30 mm and a depth of 60 mm. Use a carpenter's hammer to hammer the cork firmly into the hole, flush with the wall surface. Fasten the curtain frame or panel by driving a large square nail into the center of the cork or using a screwdriver to drive a wide cap screw into the center of the cork.

When installing a straight curtain rack, use large square nails or wide cap screws with a length of 100-150 mm; when installing a straight plate, use fasteners with a length of 1000-120 mm; when installing a round rod curtain rack, use small square nails or wide cap screws. The panels can be hung with draperies that are fixed or movable curtains.

For curtains with movable valances, special rods can be fixed to the board, and the valances can move freely on the rods with the help of a certain number of rings. To fix a straight curtain frame, screw two U-shaped nails on the back near the edge with screws, and make the heads of the large square nails protruding from the wall enter the arc-shaped parts of the two U-shaped nails.

When hanging curtains, use the following metal rings: for round rod metal curtain frames, use large metal rings; for round rod plastic curtain frames, large metal rings can also be used; for wooden curtain frames, use rotated wooden rings. To allow for free movement the diameter of the ring should be larger than the diameter of the rod, usually not less than 10-15 mm.

From the above description, we can know that it only takes four steps to hang a curtain, which is actually very simple. But what deserves everyone's attention is the safety issue. Hanging curtains requires climbing to a very high place, so you must pay attention to safety and not lose sight of the big picture. I hope you can master the skills soon!
