Just install the rail to the ceiling.
The ceiling on top of your air cond is not plaster ceiling, right? |

This design is meant for railing to install on the ceiling (plaster ceiling) Your plaster ceiling guy should / already have reinforce that section for railing.
If you have kid(s) like to pull the curtain like "tarzan" it will drop and damage the ceiling eventually. |

QUOTE(Becabal @ Oct 4 2011, 09:59 AM) haha, normally i call it butterfly.have to make sure your curtain is not thick and heavy if u use this plug normally if ppl use this pelmet design for curtain, they will ask the plaster ceiling guy to add a timber on top of plaster ceiling, so that can straight screw into the timber above. |

Why not just get nice looking rails instead of those aluminum (old fashioned eyesore type.
If like that you can install the rails lower and if appear when you open the curtain, it do not look bad. |

I am adopting this design in my living hall now. Mine is 2 layers some more.QUOTE(xSean @ Oct 4 2011, 08:15 PM) actually i called my plaster ceiling contractor....he say just install on the plaster ceiling If you worry, you can ask your ceiling contractor to reinforce the area that you wanna put your rails.
