Q: I want to install at patio door without center bracket. Is rod strong enough to hold drapes & not bend without center bracket?
A: It's iffy. The drapes I bought are rather heavy and lined, and they are spanning about 100". There's a slight, fairly imperceptible bow in the middle, which you may or may not notice depending on how everything is hanging, where the window frame is for visual reference, etc. At this width the rod is almost completely closed in the middle, showing only about an inch of its inside rod. With lighter drapes, it could work, depending on your width. There are also "C" rings available which will slide past a center support. I probably should have those instead of my clip rings!

submitted byKatrina - 5 years agoTarget staff supportA: I have another question. Can I buy a single bracket for my curtain rod? I do not need to buy the whole new rod. I am having trouble trying to find parts to order. I bought the threshold brand Ball threshold brand. Thank you for your help Bonnie.
submitted byBonnie - 4 years agoA: I hung this without the middle support over a window - my toddler pulled it out of the wall. After the center bracket was added, when my preschooler pulled on it the brackets bent but didn't pull out.

Q: Are you supposed to remove the plastic ring pieces on the ends of the rods? I can’t seem to fit the smaller diameter rod into the larger ones unless I remove them. But the instruction manual says nothing about it them.
A: Hello Anonymous - Thank you for your Inquiry! Yes, the plastic ring pieces on the ends of the rods are typically meant to be removed before installation and the finials screws into the end of the rod. They do not fit around the rods like a cap. I hope this helps! - Cynthia
