Here are some real-world factors not covered in the video: - The height of the curtain rod is usually determined by where you want the bottom of the curtains to land. Once you know that height, the bracket position has to be determined in relation to the rod. (The bracket mounting holes are often above and below the rod's position.) - If you need a center support you'll usually want to make sure that it can be positioned above the window trim. Don't make the mistake of mounting the left and right brackets below the top of the trim, thinking you'll add the center support last, only to discover that it has to sit ON the window trim, taking it out of alignment depth-wise with the other brackets. - It's best to use wall anchors that don't stand proud of the wall. Otherwise the plastic anchor lip will prevent the bracket from sitting flush against the wall. - A two piece rod has one section that has a smaller diameter than the other. When both sections are snugged down against their brackets by the set screws, they stand at slightly different heights. Something to consider when positioning the mounting brackets is to assign a bracket to each rod section. This also happens when there are three sections and three brackets. - DON'T ASSUME ANYTHING IS LEVEL! You might install your rod dead level only to discover that it looks crooked, because your window trim or wall/ceiling joint isn't level. - Don't slide the rod through the brackets with the set screws in place. You'll scratch the rod. When you unwrap the brackets, take the set screws out immediately. Then.... -...make sure you install the set screws as the last step. It will prevent the rod from sliding through the brackets when you move the curtains.

Thanks Lowe’s

Using measuring tape is old school, and time consuming. You can get the job done faster by using an RPC (Rody Precision Corner) tool. Plus, the RPC has bubble levels on it, so you don't need an extra level tool to get the job done.

What confuses me is the measurements. I've watched various videos where people say measure about 3 to 4" out past the window frame, but in this video it only looks like she measured about a couple inches out and then she measured a couple inches directly above the edge of the window frame. I dont know where the second measurement should go- a few inches above the first mark or a few inches above the edge of the window frame?

butifull
