Can anybody tell me if these can squish down to 7 inches without damaging the drywall (from being over-compacted)? My sidelight window sashes are 7".

No, this will not work. One of the tension rods is 10.5 inches. You might consider putting 2 screws across from each other and a hose to connect them like those oxygen hoses people wear to help them breathe. I bet you could get some free from any hospital. They throw them out all of the time and it is flexible enough to put your curtains onto one end and then push it into the other head of the screw. Just an idea: )Therese

Sorry but no. I removed mine and twisted it totally closed and it is 8 & 2/16".

One additional note. My gunsmith cautioned me that there is a very slight "overhang" before he installed them because these are made for the full size. He is right but is ever so slight and I haven't thought about it again until your post made me think about it.

I did not have any issues wipping these off my windows when I used them. You should be fine!

The windows are Velcro so you can not roll them up with it you could just take them off all together, Please let me know if this helped any? Jamie

They are about 4 or 5 inches around, BUT the problem is that they do not stick very well. After a month or so, I pulled them up and put something else down.

I have not used sheers with these, and If you want sheers mounted behind this rod I think it would be very tight unless you had a way to move the rod brackets on this rod out further. Mine let the curtains just clear the window sill... Of course if you are not working around woodwork like I am then you would have 2 inches of space for a sheer/rod.

The window width we covered with the smaller set is 50". I would suggest getting the wider set. I think you'll be happy with the drapes. They do a very good job of keeping the light out.

The supports we show for your window do not compress down to 21cm. Are there any markings on the supports you currently have that you can provide us with?

Yes they are! Depending upon the use they are ok. I have a wide window and it comes apart. Had to fix it, as it was already up. Wish they were a bit more stable for the price.

I use these in my moble home which is also older. I have windows that open by sliding the window up and down, not side to side. I love these, as I have ordered several more after my original order. I am not sure how satisfactory they would stay in place in a side to side window, but I believe that they would fit, as long as the opening meets the size of the screen.

No. They may get squeezed in. In my case part of it went down inside with the glass and then came back up. The shade or the window didn't get damaged but it looked like it could have been. So I take it down before rolling down the window.

My window is 30" and the side panel are not fully extended so it seems likely.

I think they could be..I cut mine to fit a 21" window..there is a measuring system on bottom of shade...you cut evenly from both sides of shade...I am pretty sure there is extra space to cut more off.... I am not home to check but can let you know later today.

When I bought them, they appeared to be too flimsy, however, after hanging 3 plates they felt OK. The plates I currently have are only 13 inches in dia., and they appear to be quite secure after about three years on the wall. If you buy the larger hangers I think you will be OK with them. Good luck. (Mike)

Yes. I have 6 and 8" stained glass pieces in my windows with the smaller ones and have never had one loosen or come off. The only surface I have found that they aren't really secure is a very rough or porous one.

I just measured them. When fully extended, they are 22", but at that length there is no pressure (they are spring loaded) to keep them in place. You could probably glue them or use the 3M sticky things. Mine are in a drawer that is 15 1/2" deep. They have been great. They don't move unless I move them.

They will not extend that far, my window is 31-32" and they will extend maybe another inch on each side, but definitely not 39". They might sell extenders though. Hope this helps. Its a great machine though!
