Curtain Rod Installation
non-powered curtain rods or tracks with suitable supplied brackets
Benloch property context
An occupied Benloch property may need preparation before curtain rod installation can begin. Send rod or track specifications, curtain weight information, the complete opening and the proposed mounting surface. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. Benloch sits near Pastoria East, Lancefield, Cobaw and Pastoria. Fix Nik can review practical maintenance requests across this part of Greater Melbourne, with the job scope and property conditions guiding timing, materials and the appropriate service.
Common situations
A painted wall surface does not reveal all of the construction behind it. Share any known wall details and nearby services. Installation depends on suitable support and safe fixing locations, not simply finding a plug that fits an existing hole.
The product type determines the bracket and fixing arrangement. Send the exact model and all supplied components. A rod kit and a curtain track are not interchangeable systems, and missing brackets should be resolved before their installation is scheduled.
The service covers suitable mechanical fittings for non-powered products. Motor wiring and electrical alterations are excluded. Altering the building to create support or modifying an unsuitable curtain system should not be assumed to form part of a standard rod installation.
Planning the work
Operate the curtains without pulling against the brackets. Report movement and retain all supplied safety devices and instructions. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Span, curtain load, bracket arrangement and wall support must be considered together before fixing positions are agreed. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Position and mechanically fit suitable non-powered rods or tracks, following product instructions and applicable cord-safety requirements. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.

Service overview
Long rods or tracks may require a specific support layout. Provide the manufacturer instructions and desired width. Omitting an intermediate bracket to improve the appearance is not appropriate when the product relies on it for support under normal use.
Show the full opening and explain the intended mounting position. Handles, opening windows and the depth of the recess can interfere with the curtain or fittings. The final layout should be checked against the product before any drilling is agreed.
Heavy curtains can place different demands on the supports from lightweight fabric. Include product weight information rather than only the window width. The rod span and manufacturer bracket spacing also matter when deciding whether the intended arrangement is suitable.
The agreed service covers non-powered rods/tracks, compatible brackets, positioning and operation checks. Exclusions: Electrical motors/wiring, unsuitable substrates, unassessed cord hazards, unsupported high access.
