Questions & Answers
The ends are sewn together permanently. One of the rods is slightly smaller in diameter than the other and pulls away from the center. Each rod is held in place by a magnetic bracket. The rods will then be able to slide into place. The rod is held in place by the decorative end, which prevents it from slipping out of the bracket.
Maybe a half-inch? They don't have a lot of protrusion.
Hello, the metal rods are metal, and the resin finials are resin.
Why don't you get the one that isn't magnetic?

The Walmart magnets are terrible, and they can barely hold a small 36" long curtain! After all, the magnet is bigger and stronger on these, and they don't budge when you open and close the curtains like the others did.
For my French doors, these were ideal. I didn't want to drill any holes or put any hardware in place. This is precisely what I was looking for. There was no slipping at all. Others have complained that they slide, but there is a sticker on the back of each magnet that must be removed before connecting them to your door. They haven't slid at all for me. br>I would strongly suggest these.
The magnets have a tremendous amount of pulling power. I used the rods on my metal back doors, and they don't move when they open and close all the time. I also took less than a minute to install these. This was an excellent buy!.
Update: I removed the rods (to change curtain) and one of the magnets stayed on the door detached from the piece holding the rod in place, so it's been two days since I put up a different curtain (that better matches the decor). I strongly advise that once you've installed the rods, you don't touch the curtain or rods again; they look nice but are extremely fragile; I was able to put it back together, but I'm afraid that next time it will completely break and be impossible to reassemble. br>br>Review of the original; As soon as I got these rods, I put them up. If you don't fiddle with the curtain, they'll stay on the door. I wish you could lock the rod to the desired length rather than having to redo it when the gathers fall off while fiddling with the curtain. The rest was fantastic; I didn't want to drill holes in the door to hang a curtain rod, so these rods worked perfectly. I enjoy closing the curtains on my back door so that no one can see in. We had some issues with unknown people in the back yard a few months ago, and I was seriously considering drilling holes in the fence to provide privacy in case someone else showed up. I like that I can have the curtains up and not have to worry about puncturing the hollow door.
The rod's magnets disintegrated. They also chipped my door paint due to the strength and inconvenient nature of removing the magnet once the rod had detached from the magnet. Almost all of the ends had this problem.
Poor execution of a good idea. 1. br>br> Magnets are powerful, but they could be even more so. Squeezing the curtain in the middle pulls the bars down, causing them to fall out of place. No matter how hard you try, curtains cannot be made to close completely. Simply put, there isn't enough power. It works, but it isn't perfect. br>br>2. The pipes do not fit snugly enough in the end pieces, and they are extremely loose. They are thrown out on both sides. I eventually had to superglue them into the final pieces. It's a workable solution, but I'm not sure how long it will last. I could have used construction glue, but I didn't have any, so I just slid one tube into the other to put it together. Don't throw away the cheap, flimsy plastic piece that keeps the tubes from grinding against one another. br>br>The brown in photos appears to be "bronze," but when you get them, it appears to be brown plastic. It's only a minor ordeal, so don't get too worked up about it. It's not a huge deal; it's just a heads-up if you're going for the same look as us.
It will be necessary to assist in the adjustment of the rod in order for it to remain in place. The magnet appears to be holding my back door in place. br>It was a nightmare trying to keep the tubes in. To keep the magnet ends in place, I had to wrap them in black electrical tape. Supports one panel of a full-glass back door. One is on top of the window, and the other is at the bottom. It hasn't fallen down since we fixed it. The magnet remained fyi all of the time. It was never a problem in the first place.
When I first saw "2 sets," I thought it meant two sets of two rods (1 set usually means a pair of rods). Not so. If you're making a double door, buy one box for each door. I ordered one box and then had to order a second box because there are only two rods. When I first attached the rod and pulled on it to straighten it out, the magnetic square came apart from the casing as I yanked it away from the door. These have an extremely low quality feel to them. I intend to hand them back to you.
