This bar was very easy to install once I was able to screw brackets that fitted with it, I used it to hang balance sheers in my bedroom window, I didn’t use the screws that came inside the bar, because I didn’t know they were there,. At the end, it came out looking very nice, I just wanted the ornamental element in the room.Just what I was looking for. Very sturdy and easy to installI will never not use these again! I bought two of these for some rods that had broken in my closets, and loved them so much I installed them in all the closets in my house. Sturdy, everything slides better, nothing gets stuck going in and off the rod. Great buy!It's study and easy to install. I already had the mounts in my closet, so it was a snap. It includes mounting plastic hardware and small wood screws to secure the mount.Cons:The two sections do not lock. I suppose if you use the included mounting hardware this wouldn't be a problem. But for those of use who are replacing an old closet rod, then you're gonna have to secure the two sections some way. I used duct tape.This is the 2nd one I've purchased. They are high quality and they work great! Sold a home and I think the buyer was most impressed that I had this hanging in the laundry room! :DWorks great. Needed to add closet space and this did the job.And a great improvement over the weakened wood rod I had before. Plus, it looks nice with the new wooden hangers.Great product for what I neededthese rods not only stretched across a 8 foot wall but wow they held alot of weight. these are perfect thank youStrong and adjustable. Just as pictured.It didn’t come with any attachments so I had to make it up as I went along. No time to return and get a new one.holds great
