Single Window Rod 28 to 48-Inch，Heavy Duty Lock Seam Curtain Rod Adjustable Width, 2 1/2-Inch Projection,Hardware Included,Black(2Pack)

These are easy to adjust by just twisting the rods, and perfect for light-weight curtains that are in the windows of french doors or sidelights. The rods are not true white, but ivory/ecru, which is fine if the curtains cover the rods. The small brass colored edge where the rods join in the middle is thin enough to allow curtains to be pulled closed or open easily. These are the smallest tension rods I could find, the only ones that fit my 11" wide windows of the french doors, and even the rubber ends stay completely within the wood frame of the window glass, which is only a half inch deep. These metal rods are round, unlike other tension rods on the market or in stores that are oval/flattened shape. I intend to buy more for the bottom of the curtains, to keep the curtains in place when the door opens, without swinging. Using white or pale-colored,gathered curtains, there is still light while providing privacy. The price is very reasonable for the package of 2 tension rods and they adjust without tools by simply twisting, much better than the Kirsch tension rods that require a screwdriver and can fall apart when adjusting--with the spring bouncing out---if you don't hold onto both ends of the rod. These Graber tension rods work well and don't sag or lose their tension in the 2 weeks since I installed them into 11" wide window frames with a 1/2" inside window frame edge.The curtains are ecru, thin cotton, embroidered and gathered.

The house we moved into still had the hooks for these in the wall even though the owner had installed blinds. Unlucky for me I have nosy ass cats who cleans to see out the windows so the messed up blinds so I bought these to install curtains. We’ve only had one incident where the bar folded from too much weight but I was able to bend it back into place and reinstall it. The curtains in using these with had the pocket so it hides the bar which is nice.

Perfect for curtains by my door

They are well made and fully adjustable to different size windows, worked great on 2 windows in my travel trailer, will buy again.

The media could not be loaded. Purchased a 24" to 48" curtain rod for my kitchen window. 42" was the size I needed. The rod comes in 3 segments, not 2 segments as expected. Looks totally weak. Will not be hanging anything from here. It MIGHT be fine if I was on the 24" side of things, but cannot confirm this. The hardware is there, however the top is the only side of the rod that hooks into the hardware, meaning it isn't really secure either. The metal is very thin as well. The color is nice though!

0 stars if possible! Poorly and cheaply made. Way too small and too thin to be able to support anything on it. When opened to stretch the caps on the ends came off, tried to put back the caps and you could see the VERY THIN metal bar opnening and the spring was rusty inside. Bought this item to replace a hand towel bar inside the bathroom, we mainly use it to hang the bathroom rug after shower, not only it wasn’t long enough to fit in, but there was NO WAY in hell it was going to be able to support a bathroom rug on it. AND IF IT WASNT BAD ENOUGH, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO RETURN AND REFUND!!! Cheap price but still not worth it!

There are so many things that can be done with these smaller tension rods. The Grabber name rods are well constructed and actually expand with a thumb screw motion which means they're locked in place really well.I've used these in my book cases to act as ends. The best hack I found for this size spring rods is to use in your fridge to set up barriers for soda and beer to keep in securely on one side of a shelf. I used all kinds of makeshift props but they eventually scoot out of place and your have beverages that roll all over the place, sometimes on the floor when you open the door.

Durable, easy to install, and look clean! Just your average curtain rods but they do the job!
