Window Films & Hardware

Measure the window width and add 8–12 inches on each side for proper coverage. For heavy curtains, opt for a thicker, sturdier rod.

Install center brackets, use sturdier rods, or add additional wall anchors for support.

Choose sturdy metal or wood rods (at least 1" diameter) with strong brackets and center supports to prevent sagging under weight.

Extend the rod 4-10 inches wider than the window frame on each side to allow full coverage when curtains are open.
