I want to use these for windows in a shaker card and want to know if these are flimsy or sturdy enough to be windows in a card.

You could probably use these, I don't see it being an issue. But keep in mind it's not hard plastic. It's quite thin. It would honestly just boil down to personal preference if you ask me and would depend on the type of card.

I used them inside so I can't be sure. They are woven plastic and mine are falling apart and twisting out of shape now. The hardware is very flimsy, I doubt it would hold up to much weather or wind. I ended up with 7 and not one has kept it's shape. Yes, they are mounted correctly but they are sewn crooked and the bottom rod twists and warps. they are no bargain and if you are willing to replace some of the parts they may look better.

They are not very sturdy, the bottom piece is sturdy but sides are not reinforced with cardboard or anything...I use them in my pantry.

no, I don't think this is heavy enough for that application, and if you wanted a glossy finish - they would not be glossy either. so, they would not shuffle well. however if it is for a kid birthday or something, and you do not need it to be super heavy, or actually feel like playing cards, it might work OK.

They are pretty sturdy. I put candy in mine for favors and they worked out great.

They are coated not plastic therefore a more thin of a card, should be fine for you.

Rebecca, They are heavy metal. I was afraid they would be flimsy, but they are not. I intend to use them to hand a plant on one side and and hummingbird feeder on the other. I don't anticipate any problems whatsoever. I believe you could hang two plants with no problems. Hope this has helped. Karen

I find them very sturdy. I think they would probably hold the baking dishes with no problem. I have used them to extend the shelving space on the top shelf of my older kitchen cabinets.

They are really strong but as most things will tell you and the previous reviewer can attest to they are fragile. If they're not going to be hit directly they definitely would suit your purpose. They don't FEEL fragile but if you let them even into each other they can break.

I installed these cabinets over my washer and dryer. They hold a lot of heavy items so they should be able to hold heavy glasses. They were installed in the studs in the wall so they would be sturdy.

These are very thin. I used them on the bottom of a bookcase, and if I didn't know they were there, I wouldn't be able to tell. My opinion--go for it! I don't think it will be a problem!

No, they are quite flimsy. Great for scrap booking kid's report cards etc. but not good for archiving a magazine say.

One and they are not of very good quality. Quite flimsy, in fact. As long as they are on a window that no one will want to open or close you'll be fine. Otherwise, I would choose a different option. Something that is stronger and less likely to fall.

Haven't tried it but they're quite sturdy. I don't think they'd break. I just put them in storage or I'd try it to be sure.

They're pretty flimsy. I use them for the shelf above my washer and dryer to store various laundry/house items. They serve their purpose and work well for my needs but I'm always caution when picking them up and don't pick them up by the handles.

I wouldn't say that they are super heavy duty nor would I say cheaply made either. Perhaps I have not had them for long, but they haven't been bending or tearing within my parents' filing cabinet. But if you're asking if they are not flexible, well yes, they are since they are made of manilla stock material and is not laminated or made from a hard plastic. Hope this helps!

I did not have any issues wipping these off my windows when I used them. You should be fine!
