Spark InnovatorsBlack Tap Bracket by Hang Hero - Easy Install No Drill Curtain Rod Brackets - As Seen on TV - Set of 2

These are so easy to install and so much better than the old way of hanging curtains and they look nicer.

100% loved this! Didn’t need any measurements, all I needed was a hammer and I was done in seconds!

*UPDATE (Dec 25, 2023):I added photos to show how the Tap Brackets look on one of my windows. I've been renting a very old home that has not been kept up with very well. I included photos of the Tap Brackets being used on a window frame that is a few millimeters short of the recommended depth for installation and not completely level on one side. Regardless of these issues, the Tap Brackets have held up curtains in my home very well. I have since draped a heavy fabric to the top of the pictured curtain rod for a decorative look, and it has held up great for a year now. I open and close the curtains regularly.I no longer think that adding the upholstery tack to the side was necessary. These things are sturdy. (Note: The hole in the wall was already there before I moved in. It was not caused by the Tap Bracket in anyway. This product has not damaged anything. In fact, it has prevented me from having to drill into really old plaster & lather walls in order to install a traditional curtain rod. Therefore, I'd say it has prevented damages to the wall and saved me from having to do any patch work when I move out.)Some useful things to consider: If you're trying to hang curtains to completely block out light/dampen noise or for insulation purposes, this item may not be a total solution for you. In order to block out as much light and cold/heat as possible, you'll want to hang insulated/lined curtains so that they cover at least 6 inches around all sides of your window. (I got lucky because my window trims are approximately 5.5 inches wide on the tops and sides.) Even if your window trim is ideal, the Tap Brackets make it so that your curtain will hang several inches away from your window. (The amount of space will depend on how recessed your windows are, too.) This kind of worked out for me since I had thick blinds already installed within my window frames. I needed my curtains to stick out a bit so as not to drape directly on top of the blinds. (If the blinds weren't already installed, I probably would've used a tension rod within the window to hang a sheer curtain or insulating panel inside of it.) How well this item works for creating a black-out effect, noise control, or insulation will really be dependent on the height, width, and depth of your window frame.I initially needed to hang curtains for privacy reasons, so I didn't consider the above issues. Then I realized this old house is poorly insulated, especially due to the 100 yr old windows. I found a couple of solutions for my dillema. I installed a few wire nails along the sides of the window trim and used fabric glue to attach some tiny loops onto the sides of the curtains. This allows me to attach the sides of the curtain to the trim to minimize gaps. Since my curtain panels are a bit too wide for my frame, I'm able to kind of spread them out so it's not so noticeable that they're hooked onto the sides. There's enough excess fabric that everything still looks flowy. And I can easily overlap them in the middle. I was able to cover some of the space at the top by draping a patterned fabric over everything and making it look decorative. All of this has helped A LOT.Some of my windows trims don't have as much depth to be able to use the Tap Brackets on them. I tried a similar product meant for thinner window trims, but they weren't able to hold up a sturdy rod and heavy curtains without problems. If left alone, they were fine. But they started coming lose and/or bent after several times of opening & closing the curtains (which we must be able to do sometimes to allow air to circulate in our oddly laid out, old house). I'm considering mounting a wood plank on or above these window trims so I can use the tap brackets and customize the amount of coverage I want around the windows. (If you're wondering why I wouldn't just drill regular curtain rods into the wall instead, it's because the wall studs are all over the place - no regular measuring system was used when this house was built. At least I know there are studs directly aligned with the window edges. Also, old plaster & lathe is a pain in the butt to drill into. Everything in this house is prone to crumbling or cracking.)All in all, the Tap Brackets are extremely useful. They definitely look better than any Command Hook hacks. And even though they now make Command curtain rods, these things hold far more weight (and still look better). They work well for me, especially since I don't really have any flat surfaces to use Command hooks on anyway.*ORIGINAL REVIEW:I bought this in bronze and black. You have to buy your own curtain rod. I used rods that are 1 inch in diameter and they fit perfect - easy to lift in and out.I installed this over a window that was approximately 40 inches wide. It holds two thick curtain panels. The rod and panels weigh around 8 lbs total. I open and close the curtains daily. I don't feel like the tap brackets are going to fall off. Although, I used an upholstery tack in the extra hole that goes down the length of the tap bracket to secure it a little more.If you plan to use this on a wider window and with a heavy rod/curtains, you'll need to get an additional tap bracket designed to be placed above the middle of the window. I haven't tried the middle bracket, but I plan to. These work and look great on my smaller windows, so I'm going to buy a set for my wider window.

I loved this product for hanging up the curtains in my home. It was easy to install and holds even my thicker curtains. I have them on all my windows.

Super quick and easy install. Just know that you need casement windows to install

Easy install, holds up rod and heavier blackout curtains just fine.

Easy to install with no holes in the walls!!! I did use a smaller rod as the receiver of the rod is not that big of an opening. I used the rod that amazon recommended, 5/8 inch diameter small curtain rod, 30-45inches and it worked well.

Not very sturdy....works well enough I guess but hopefully no one tugs on the curtains EVER. Lol
