How hard are these to latch/unlatch when attaching to the curtain rod?

I put all of them on the rod first, then I added the curtain. I had a little trouble closing them back up, but I have bad grip in my hands. I think they are well worth it. Hope this helps.

They are almost exactly 5 inches. Just fyi about the rods... Once you have the rods extended to the length you want them on your window, there is no way to tighten them around the extension rod, to where they stay where you want them. So if you open a curtain, you have to hold the rod in order to get it to stay the length you want, or it will slide to the left or the right. I've never dealt with curtain rods before, so I don't know if there is some kind of fastener or something you can buy to tighten around the rods, where one end of the rod meets the extension pole, to keep it from sliding.

I was able to slip a utility knife blade between the plastic caps and the binding posts, then lever a bit to push them up. Doing this in 2-3 spots around the circumference of each binding post popped them out in about 15 seconds. Kind of annoying Infinity stuck them in there so tight, however.

I don't think so. The hardware is just an open hook that you set the rod into. There is a little screw you can tighten, but gravity does most of the work to keep the rod in place. Could possibly work if you screwed it in really tight and never needed to open or close the curtain.

Mine took a fair bit more force to mount than I was initially comfortable with. But after that it was fine, although they still are stiff to unmount. Perhaps try giving them some extra uumph?(but be careful not to break em)

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: Cheaplights 6 PCS 3.75" Spring Clamps

I have this rod spanning 105" with four lined silk drapes(total 150" of fabric) hanging on decorative rings, with no problem. The weight and span require using the bracket to support the center of the rod, so that may affect how your drapes slide on the rod. Securely screwed all brackets into solid wood header. Good luck!

We installed the rod in June using a very heavy curtain ann liner. The rod has worked very well. Directions are essential to getting a tight fit

They are loose, they work well and are quality made. I never have any issue getting them out. Hope this helps

I think that you slide them on from the end first but they seem like they could possibly be pushed on with effort. They do not come off easily & I so not want to mess them up trying. Handy man set this up for me.

Ours do not. The ones we purchased are solid at the magnet...with the extension pulling apart to insert the curtain. A much better setup than the first set we got that do pull out of the brackets. Hope this helps.

The mounting hardware is not welded to the rod. The brackets can be located anywhere along the rod. You just have to make sure that the curtains will cover the left/right edges of the window. The curtains cannot slide beyond the mounting hardware.

Not silly at all! Yes you do need to purchase the pin hooks You need enough for each pleat in your curtain plus one for each end of the curtain. You might have extra "sliders" on your rod that you will not need. You should remove these by lifting the plastic "gate" on the end of the rod or they will not move smoothly when you open and close your curtain.

Yes the brackets screw into the wall, just make sure you take notice of which is which h and which end is up. They seem pretty sturdy so far. My only dislike is the seam in the middle of the rod makes the curtain stick when I open it up, but its so minor all in all. Pretty good purchase I'd say for the price.

The knobs are not lockable. They are durable on our closet doors which does not need to be locked. Perhaps you could have a lock and use these knobs as pulls. I hope that was helpful.

if you mean is it easy to remove/replace curtain or liner, yes it is. If you mean to remove them from the rod, I've never removed them, but they should come off as easy as they went on, so probably yes.

I believe so but I have mine attached to a fiberglass shower wall and they hold very tightly. I have tried to pull them off to test them but cannot and they have been on for almost two months!
