Do you use this with blackout curtains? I'm concerned about maximum weight it can hold - thoughts?

I use it for regular lined drapes and hung them from the ceiling. It will hold a lot if you use anchors in the drywall.

Depends how long your rods. My rods are too long, maximum length: curtains trip over joint and joint has disconnected. Shorter rods no problem, I have black out curtains but not full length.

We mounted these to the ceiling and they work great. I don't think the weight is that critical. What's important is what you're anchoring it to. If you're anchoring to studs, you have no trouble at all. If not, adjust the weight accordingly.

Yes, I do. These rod holders are wonderfully strong. We've had them in place for years now--with the Levolor rings so that the curtains slide easily across the rod-and no troubles with the curtains staying up. We do have them drilled into concrete, though, so make sure you have them nicely secured to the wall.

These are VERY sturdy. We installed them on our yacht because they look a lot like nautical stainless steel railing...

I used them for shower curtain rods. They are mounted so that they come down from the ceiling. I purchased separate expansion bolts to install them. As they are configured, they would not be useful mounted perpendicular from the wall.

I would estimate 25 lbs. I wouldn't worry about hanging clothes on it, but if some one put all their weight on it (like a grab bar), I wouldn't expect it to hold. This depends in part what it is screwed into. Wall board won't hold as much as it will fail before the bar does.

My son has the same screen room and he fixed a heavy wire across the whole sunny side of his screen room and he used a shower curtain with shower hooks to slide it open and closed. The shower curtains now look just like regular curtains and it really looks nice and it is weather proof too. I don't think a curtain rod would work as it would be a little too heavy. I used the roll up blinds in mine that are hung with little hooks.....Try either idea....

I don't have this exact one but I have been using these to hold up curtains for about 10 years now. I use three of them. Two at the ends and one in the middle. The rod is light but I have heavy black out curtains on it. What you could also do is just buy the sticky pads and stick them to the curtain rod holder but the ends that you pull will stick out. If your walls are white you might not notice them though.

Its good and sturdy. Similiar to portable lighting stands. I use a thick green screen canvas no problem with weight. Good luck, JEV

I have a laminated poster that weighs about 2 pounds. The hanger holds it easily. There could be potential for bending the poster where you clip it when you're closing the hanger or putting the poster on the wall, especially if it's a big heavy poster. I'd get another person to help just to be sure.

i am sorry, I don't really know - I have medium heavy curtains on mine and I see no sign of weakness.

It comes with a support for the middle, but it may be sturdy enough to support the weight of your curtains if they are not too heavy. My curtains are lined denim and are very heavy so I used the support.

It might work if jackets are light weight. My rods are holding very light weight curtains so the rods are perfect. You might try it and to see if it works.

Actually, I bought these for the rods, not the brackets. I don't believe they would fit over blinds. Even if they did, curtains could hang up on the blinds. Sorry I'm not more helpful. Good luck with this. You can always buy separate brackets for your need.

I don't think it would hang well for curtains. It is like a plastic canvas texture. It is more suited for a screen, pulled tight.

i dont know what the maximum weight is, but it wont hold a very heavy tv. this closetmaid is not strong for that

It is very sturdy if installed correctly. I have a curtain, a liner and have hung several wet towels over the top and had no issues. I guess it would depend on how much weight you were going to put on it.

I only have mine at 68 inches with fairly lightweight curtains, However, at the full extension, I would definitely use a center support.

I had too many problems with this hook.It kept falling (usually in the middle of the night)I ccertainly would not trust it with curtains or rods.If you must use this hook, drill a hole and screw it to the wall.Otherwise forget it!Nicholas

The clothes hangar is very light-weight, so can be used on a tension rod that is secure. It weighs about the same as a heavy plastic hangar. I use it for gloves, socks, underwear, etc. I wouldn't hang pants or coats on it -- that would make it heavy.

That's exactly what it was designed to do. If your curtains have a hanging loop sewn into one end, just slide the horizontal bar through the loop, and set it onto the upright poles. If not, then a package of inexpensive clamps will hold any fabric in place. This is what I use: Heavy Duty Muslin Clamps 4 1/2 inch 6 Pack
