Allow for bracket projection, rail length and curtain weight. Pulling curtains creates movement and impact.
Method basis: Rigips/Knauf system guidance and Fischer/Hilti fixing-selection principles. Final parameters always come from the selected product data.
How to plan the installation
Identify the lintel construction and hidden services. Place points in the structural base rather than weak finish.
Common mistake
Do not size the installation for a light net curtain if heavy curtains may be added later.
Pre-start check
- Was the structural base identified rather than only the finish?
- Does the weight include contents and projection?
- Were services, edges and minimum spacing checked?
- Does the product data permit the base, direction and environment?
