Are these an alternative to Cuisenaire Rods?

Cuisenaire rods are different coloured rods with values from 1-10. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rodsUnifix bricks are available in 10 different colours and are single interlocking cubes.http://www.didax.com/unifix/Both can be used to help solve maths problems using the four rules,to learn tables etc. I used them as a teacher and now my grandchildren love them too!

I looked at the rods and I do think these would be a viable alternative. It appears the rods are already pre-sized and with these cubes you can make whatever sizes or combination of sizes you want.

No. For a great wall mounted closet rod system, I would suggest looking at the Container Store for Elfa, it's super handy, very customizable and sturdy. I have quite a bit of it on my walls. (I used to work for the Container Store, just for full disclosure)

No. I do not think that others who have said yes understand your question. There may be other hooks that would fit. But these hooks measure less than one inch in the curve, and would NOT go over a 1" rod.

No. The largest diameter rod they will fit around is 1 and 1/4 inches. You cannot bend them, either.

This is good but limited. I think these rods have to be screwed in so I am assuming they would have to be by the same manufacturer. I upgraded to a more adaptable system where the rods could be adjusted by a screw grip on the sides. I gave the opteka away so don't have it anymore. I suppose the fact I got it and then gave it away and went for something else that could be adapted says it all as far as my experience is.

I think you would be safe using them with any rod drape or sheer. Its a very sturdy rod and I really like mine so give it a try

They will work with any brand that uses the same size screws at the ends (or at least close). I used them with non-Levelor rods, and they worked fine. The key is whether your rods have screw holes in the ends.

You're probably better off asking the mfg but I have two 12" brushed nickel extension rods that we didn't use that you are welcomed to. Let me know if interested.

hmm... Good point. They seem not to exist. It looks like the longest ones you'll be able to use are 1 1/2 in.

I think they will work just fine actually. I don't know how big the diameter is of the rods we have now, but we make them work mostly because we don't have to open and close the curtains very often. If we did, the sliding of the rods due to the looseness might bother me more. I don't know the diameter of the opening. I'm sorry

No these are hooks to hang items on the sides of the shelving. Not sure where a garment rod would go.

I don't think so. My rod is slightly over 1 in. and that looks to be the ideal size. The actual diameter is 1.5 by getting them on would be difficult and they wouldn't be able to move freely.

Maybe but they offer smaller length rods with the same design.this is a very skinny lightweight rod don't plan on hanging anything to heavy

I'm using them on a 1-1/4" rod and they fit. If the rod is 2" there will be a gap which can face the back of the closet if you are okay with that. They work very well for sliding hangers. My old rods were wood and gave me splinters.

I really don't know, because I have only used the heavy duty rods with 130 pounds line for large tunas and wahoos and these rods would most likely be too stiff for that purpose. Btw, the top part of 3 of the 4 rods I bought came unglued and the rollers no longer align with the line coming out of the reel...

Yes, Virginia...I have mine on wooden closet rods. They are very sturdy/substantial. Please note the hook is fixed, won't swivel...too bad, wish they would. Hope this helps. Donna

Hi! If your plates don't already have holes, yes, you'll need to drill holes in them. If the plates are too thick and heavy, these rods will not support them very well. Good luck!
