Hooks should be chosen so that they serve for a long time, but at the same time are reliable. The choice often depends on the type of cornice: elements attached to rings are suitable for round bars, and for a baguette structure - plastic products with wheels. Be sure to use the clips so that the curtain does not fall at the most unexpected moment.

Apart from the main group, there is a decorative accessory that fixes the hooks. This product is also called a hook. Such fittings are used to fix the curtain fabric with grabs. Their task is to pull the material aside, forming a rounded fold.

The design of these elements is very different. It can be completely invisible, focusing all attention on beautiful textiles, and pretentious, when they themselves act as decoration.

The surface of products is often decorated with a variety of images: a flower, an ornament, an animal's head, a snake, a snail, and much more, what a design idea is capable of. This kind of hooks are wall mounted or window slope self-tapping screws, as well as special brackets. Aesthetically, sometimes there is something in common with the design of the cornice. They are often sold as a set.

Materials

Curtain hooks are made from different materials:

  • Plastic is considered to be the cheapest. Hooks from it will not be able to withstand curtains, which are heavy, but they are well suited to hold air curtains. The main advantage of such fittings will be the silent sliding and opening of the curtains. However, over time, plastic wear is observed, and this leads to deformation and loss of performance.
  • For the manufacture of metal productsuse aluminum, brass, steel. This fastening is considered the most reliable, however, they may not cope with multi-layer curtains. Compared to plastic hooks, they create noise during operation. Must choose quality materialotherwise it may corrode.

The combination of plastic and metal is necessary in order for the product to have all at once positive properties both materials.

  • Plastic, iron and metal-plastichook options are designed to hold light and medium weight fabrics. If it is necessary to use very heavy multi-layer and voluminous curtains in the interior, only eyelets or loops can hold them.

If you do not like any of the options for some reason, you can make original curtain hooks from available tools.

  • Paper clips. Try using this stationery for attaching curtains. The extraordinary variety of paper clips makes it possible to make something unique. For example, you can fasten one to the other, bend it interestingly, find an unusual color.
  • Pins. Sewing accessories are also diverse. Decorative pins are always on sale. Creative designers hang curtains on them. Try it yourself.
  • Wire.The hook can be made from regular wire. To do this, it is figuratively bent, forming the holder itself, then decorated with beads, beads, flowers or other material or decorative elements.

There are many options for making decorative products for fastening curtains from what is in the house. The main thing is the manifestation of imagination and a willingness to experiment.

How to hang correctly?

It is necessary to hang curtains taking into account different types designs. The cornices on which the curtains are put on with the help of hooks are of several types:

  • forged;
  • ceiling;
  • aluminum;
  • bay window;
  • string;
  • rail of old and new design.

There are many options for fixing curtains to the eaves. Among them, curtain hooks are the most common option. They are attached to the rings and also act as stand-alone mounts.

The most common application of this fastening element together with profile cornices, they are mounted on the wall and to the ceiling. It is possible to use hooks to fix the fabric on the cornice-string, they are well suited to round models.

Fixing the curtains with the curtain tape is extremely simple. A ribbon is attached to the edge of the curtain, which has strong threads in one or two rows. They act as loops. The hooks, catching on to them, hide behind the folds of the fabric, as the braid pulls the fabric, creating even vertical folds, and the level of their splendor can be adjusted.

Features of fastening with hooks using curtain tape:

  • ideal for attaching curtains to an open cornice;
  • universal mount, equally well suited for most types of curtains;
  • affordable price;
  • very long service life.

Weightless curtains that do not block access to the balcony, which will be stationary, must be secured with transparent plastic hooks. They are usually sewn to the curtain tape. On ceiling models of curtain rods, which are a tire, the only possible fastening for curtains will be hooks with a roller.

Sometimes hooks are sewn directly onto the fabric to securely hold them in place. Such fabrics have to be washed along with the fittings. If the hooks are plastic, then nothing terrible will happen, because plastic does not react to water in any way. It is better not to sew steel hooks, but to use a different method of fixing to the curtain. Metal can oxidize in water and stain the fabric with rust, which can be difficult to remove.

Before you properly hang the curtains, you have to take into account many nuances, including how to fix them on the cornice. Indeed, not only the design, but also the functionality of the canvases largely depends on this. In this respect, curtains on hooks are one of the most convenient and versatile solutions. But, in order to choose them correctly, you should familiarize yourself with the entire richness of the assortment and find the most suitable option for a particular case.

Curtain hooks - their features

But curtain hooks are the most common of them. We are talking about those elements that are attached to rings, and about independent fasteners. Most often they are used on profile, wall or ceiling mounted cornices, but if necessary suitable option can be matched for round or string models.

The hook mount can be used without a cornice, for this you need to fix special wall hooks at a certain distance from each other, for example, below are several photos of this method of hanging. This option - perfect solution in the case when it is planned to hang a light curtain curtain, which will not move during use.

Plastic and metal-plastic hooks are able to hold a fabric of light and medium weight. At registration window openings heavy curtain fabrics, it is better to use metal hooks, installing eyelets on the curtains or sewing stamps on them.

The main advantage of such a fastener is that the canvases hung on the hooks move easily and freely along the entire length of the eaves in both directions. If necessary (for example, if the curtains need to be washed), they can be easily removed, and if the hook breaks, it can be easily replaced with a new one.

How to attach to the curtain

Usually the hooks are attached in which loops are already provided for this purpose. Curtain tape hooks do not come with it, but you can always find them in specialized stores. How to assemble the braid is described in the following video:

Sometimes (this method was mainly used 20-30 years ago) loops are swept directly on the curtain, at the very top, without using tape. In this case, it is advisable to strengthen the upper part of the curtain with an additional narrow (2-3 cm wide) strip of fabric. The only conditional drawback of this method is the scrupulousness and monotony of sewing on a sufficiently large number of hooks.

How many loops need to be swept or used on the tape is decided individually. The optimal distance between the hooks is 10 cm. The larger it is, the deeper the folds on the curtains will be when they are drawn, and vice versa, the smaller the distance between the loops, and therefore the hooks, the less expressive the folds will be.

We also offer a video below on how to fix the hooks on the curtain tape before hanging the curtain on the ceiling cornice:

When the cornice is a ceiling rail, it is only possible to attach the curtains with hooks. Hooks for ceiling moldings are usually not included with the rail. They are bought separately, inserted into the tape and then strung into the cornice itself, as in the video:

Classification

Curtain and curtain hooks for wall and ceiling cornices are distinguished by material of manufacture and design. For their manufacture, use:

  • high quality plastic;
  • metal (mainly brass, aluminum and steel);
  • metal-plastic is a modern combined material.

Plastic options are suitable for lung curtains and average weight. In addition to the most budgetary price among products of this type, they have another undoubted advantage - noiselessness when moving along the cornice. But over time, plastic hooks wear out and lose their shape, which entails a violation of the overall composition. This is caused by the curtain sliding off the hinges due to the deformation of the hooks.

Hooks for curtains in the bathroom, you can choose both plastic or metal-plastic, and metal, chrome-plated outside as in the photo below.

Metal curtain hooks are more expensive but also more reliable. They do not deform during operation and firmly fix the curtain fabric, preventing it from sliding down. Their disadvantage is noise. In addition, the characteristics of these fasteners are highly dependent on the quality of the metal. If the fasteners are made of cheap raw materials or in violation of technology, over time, they will rust and ruin the curtains that are hung on them. It is better to give preference to metal products with an anti-corrosion coating.

Metal-plastic is the material that is optimal in terms of price and quality. It combines the advantages of the two previous types and does not have their disadvantages. Metal-plastic curtain hooks are more expensive plastic products, but cheaper than metal, absolutely noiseless and perfectly keep their shape during the entire service life.

Types of curtain hooks are also distinguished depending on their design. They are:

  • Closed and open. It is faster and easier to hang curtains on open models, but there is a possibility that the fabric will slip off the hook, for example, if you pull it sharply. Closed hooks are provided with a latch. Thanks to this, the hinges do not slip off their folded part. It is also convenient that they do not need to be removed from the curtain when washing.
  • Concealed or decorative. Decorative hooks for curtain rods are used in cases where the interior concept requires or allows the presence of additional accessories that attract attention to the curtains. Still, standard mounts, not noticeable, hidden in the folds of fabric, or under the console are more popular.
  • Transient and basic. The main models include those that serve as an independent direct mount. Transitional hooks-clips connect loops, clamps, eyelets and are mainly used on round curtain rods.

In order not to spoil the presentable appearance of the curtains in case of possible deformation or corrosion of the hooks, it is recommended to change them every two years.

What nuances to pay attention to when choosing

When choosing hooks for curtains and curtains, you need to take into account their correspondence:

  • the weight of the curtain composition;
  • the frequency of its operation (moves or hangs stationary);
  • design of curtains and interior in general;
  • the size of the loops;
  • type of cornice.

Thus, before hanging the curtains, first of all, you should find out how long they will last without breaking or deforming and holding the curtains securely in the required position. In addition, be sure to consider the type of cornice. For example, to round cornices products that are attached to rings are perfect, while bohemian consoles are best supplemented with plastic hooks, which are designed for curtains with rollers.

You should not save on curtain accessories without special need. It would seem that fastening is a trifle, but it can also nullify all efforts to create a harmonious atmosphere. Therefore, despite the fact that the hooks are very convenient and versatile, before choosing them or any other way of hanging curtains on the cornice, you need to think over the entire design of the curtain composition and its compliance with the general style of the interior.

After the completion of the renovation in the bathroom, the most pleasant stage begins - the arrangement of the interior. The stores offer a wide assortment of various accessories that solve certain problems.
This master class will teach you how to hang a hook in the bathroom on self-tapping screws. Fittings on suction cups do not require drilling into walls, but the hook will be held most reliably by fasteners.

Preparation for work

First you need to outline the places for drilling. It is recommended to make them in the seam between ceramic tiles... When drilling the tile itself, there is a risk of damage to the canvas. And then replacing the broken tile will not be so easy due to its possible absence.
We attach the hook to the desired level and draw points with a pencil through its holes.
We prepare a punch or drill for work. The choice of tool depends on the material of the walls. It is better to drill concrete partitions with a perforator; an ordinary drill can handle brick and drywall.

Drill selection

We select a drill with a suitable diameter. For this case, the size 5x85 mm is suitable. In addition, it is worth considering what type of walls we will drill. For example, concrete will not "take" a drill designed for wood or brick. For such a hard material, it is necessary to win - an alloy of tungsten and cobalt, which in its properties is not inferior to diamond.
You can determine what material a particular drill is intended for by its tip and color. For example, wood drills have a sharp tip and a steel shade, while for metal they are tapered. The drill for concrete has a victorious plate soldering and a characteristic white color.
How to drill a wall and hang a hook?
The shaft of the hammer drill or drill must not be littered, so clean the tool before inserting the drill. We bring it strictly perpendicular to the wall, lightly press the rotation start button. Concrete dust will fall on the floor during operation. This can be prevented by having an assistant hold a paper bag under the puncher while drilling.






Having drilled the wall a little, insert the plastic dowel into the hole and try on its required depth. In this case, its size is 5x30 mm. Professionals use standard depth gauges for fitting. As soon as we get a hole of the required length, we finally fix the dowel in the wall.
We attach a hook to the finished holes, take a screwdriver and self-tapping screws. We screw them in until the end. You can also use a screwdriver, but for the sake of two self-tapping screws, it makes no sense to get it.


At the end of the work, make sure that the hook does not dangle and is securely fixed to the wall.

Any interior without textile decoration looks unattractive and boring. Even correct selection curtains, curtains and other curtains may not bring the desired result without very important functional accessories - curtain rods and holders that help to effectively diversify the design of textiles and solve many additional functions: visually expand the space of the room, provide access to light, etc. Knowing how to attach curtain holders , you can independently give the interior space a new, original look.

Curtain holders are special functional hooks that are used to hold curtains, curtains and other types of textile decor. They are fixed to the wall and are most often used as a convenient addition to clamps, grabs and brushes, which help to collect and beautifully decorate textile products. Before attaching the curtain holders , you should decide on its model, design feature and carefully select the location of the product. The fact is that modern domestic and foreign manufacturers offer a large selection of holders from various materials, solved in a wide variety of styles and design directions.

Types of curtain holders

Depending on the style of the interior space, the design of the cornice or other curtain mounting system, holders are selected and a decision is made on their placement on the wall. After all, the textile design of a window opening or a door to a balcony directly depends on the environment. Holders are also selected for the decor of the room, curtains and cornice, as an important accessory that is always in sight and plays an important role in drawing up the overall composition of the window frame.

According to the composition of materials, holders for curtains are:

  • wooden;
  • plastic;
  • metal;
  • combined.

Depending on the type of product, its design and weight, fasteners should be selected. Often, when selling curtain rods, holders are attached to them, as well as hardware: screws, self-tapping screws, etc., which are optimally suited for high-quality and reliable fixation of the entire structure.

Additionally, you should pay attention to the holder model, which is selected depending on the type of curtains and their design. The thickness and other parameters of the grabs, functional elements that contribute to the maintenance of textiles on the side of a window or door, and create a beautiful and uniform drapery of the canvases, are necessarily taken into account. Their use has a positive effect on the design of the room and its lighting, and also allows you to decorate the curtains, making them more interesting and varied.

Depending on the above factors, the following types of holders can be selected:

  • hooks;
  • sockets;
  • magnetic stretch marks.

Each type of holder has its own design features and type of fastening. Their location is selected depending on the design of textile fabrics, their density and decorativeness.

Previously, it was customary to fix any types of curtain holders in the window sill area. However, today, window openings can have a wide variety of configurations, up to the floor surface or 30-40 cm higher.

It is also important to take into account the height of the room, the width of the window and its configuration, the opening and ventilation system.

The most common ways to arrange holders are:

  • The traditional way, at the level of the windowsill.
  • Above the level of the windowsill. Approximately at a distance of 2/3 from the floor plane.
  • Below the window sill line by 20-30 cm.

For curtains of short length (up to the window sill or slightly below), the holders are fixed above the bottom edge of the product (20-40 cm). Long curtains have much more room for picking up space. It should be remembered that the final version will significantly affect not only appearance the window opening, but also the entire room.

The lower the hooks are located, the less natural light will enter the room. This technique is usually used when the view outside the window is not very beautiful or when there are problems with the frame.

You can try several options, draping the fabric with wide fluffy folds or a slight bend.

The exact location of the holders can be determined quickly and easily using regular tape or a ready-made pick. It is enough to ask someone close to imitate fixing the curtains to the wall, after placing them on the cornice. Better to spend a little time and try on the most optimal place for the holder, than then redo the work and spoil the surface of the walls.

The holder can be attached quickly and easily with a drill or screwdriver. In addition to their direct practical purpose, correctly positioned and correctly installed holders will serve as an additional decoration for any window opening.

Video

This video can inspire you to decorate curtains in your nursery.

By equipping home interior, the owners of the apartment must include in it an important part of window decoration: curtains, drapes, curtains and curtains.

Moreover, when choosing such curtains, as a rule, they try to choose the entire set in one harmonious style: from textiles to necessary accessories such as cornices and holders. The curtain holder is special device in the form of a bracket or bracket for holding the curtain assembled.

They can be used alone or in a set with clamps made of linen decorated strips or pieces of other flexible materials. They are usually located on the walls on the side of window or doorways. The feeling of spaciousness in the room may depend on their use.

The forms of the holders can be very different. From very simple, horizontal or vertical design, to composite devices, with decorations and various decorative inserts. For bathrooms, the term “curtain holder” has a broader meaning. It includes all the necessary accessories for arranging the curtain, including the curtain rods (rods).

These devices are made from various materials:

  • wood;
  • metal;
  • plastics.

Various combinations of these materials are often used.

Placement of holders for curtains: 1. at the level of the window sill; 2. below the level of the windowsill; 3. above the level of the windowsill.

Accessory manufacturers for window and door openings offer three basic forms of holders:

  • hooks;
  • sockets;
  • magnetic stretch marks.

For each shape having characteristics in the design, an original method of fastening and, accordingly, special fasteners are provided.

The type, material and ability to withstand certain loads for such devices are determined when they are selected, based on the planned use, the design of the room and the curtain fabric. For example, sometimes accessories of this type, made of metal and withstanding rather heavy loads, are placed over window openings and used instead of cornices. The curtains, thrown over them and skillfully draped, create an unusual effect for the decorated room.

It is generally accepted to fix the holder to the wall. Moreover, depending on the type and design, the mount can be simple, open or hidden, with the installation of a supporting base plate.

Positioning and attaching accessories holding the curtains

The usual standard arrangement of the curtain holder at the window is sill level. Three options for the location of the device are proposed for consideration:

  • on the horizontal of the window sill;
  • below the windowsill by 0.3 m;
  • above the window sill, from the ceiling - 1/3 of the height of the room.

However, the height of modern window openings can be different: from the floor to the ceiling of the room, or several tens of centimeters above the floor level.

In such cases, the location of the curtain holders depends primarily on the curtains used, their fabric and the size of the canvas. Experimental points will be optimal. By changing the coordinates of the holding point of the curtain, you can open the window opening as much as possible or almost completely drape it, if for some reason you should not open a view of the window. In this case, it is recommended to take into account everything: from the conditions for opening the window transom to the type of curtain folds falling.

The selected places of installation of devices (there are usually two of them - on one and on the other side of the window or doorway) are checked for accuracy, horizontality and symmetry. This means that the point corresponding to the geometric center (or edge) of the left holder must correspond to the center (or edge of the same name) of the right one, relative to the middle of the opening. The horizontal marks of both devices made for future mounting holes must lie on the same horizontal - this is checked by the building level.

Fastening the holding devices

It makes no sense to choose dowels and self-tapping screws for installation: they are usually included in the kit of the purchased curtain holder. Therefore, for the forthcoming work, only a drill and / or screwdriver is needed, as well as a drill with victorious solders corresponding to the diameter of the plastic dowels included in the installation kit. If the walls in the room are "heavy", concrete, then a hammer drill is needed for drilling.

After the end of the verification measurements, drilling is carried out according to the applied fixing marks. Next, plastic plugs are placed in the holes obtained. If the drill diameter is chosen correctly, then the dowels enter the holes tightly, under the influence of a hammer. Completion of installation - fastening the holders to the dowels with self-tapping screws.

Now in the room you can arrange the desired drapery of the curtains.

The look of any room without the right textiles will not look complete. But even if you buy and hang curtains, curtains or drapes of the desired shade, texture and design, you still cannot do without various decorative elements.

The most important accessories are curtain holders, tiebacks and curtain rods. They not only help to properly organize the arrangement of fabrics according to a previously developed sketch, but are also completely independent parts. For example, holders for kanzashi curtains are so beautiful that they play a major role, it is around them that the rest of the design is built.

Correctly selected and placed kanzash and wall curtain holders allow you to organize the space correctly, regulate the amount of light entering the room, make the room more spacious and add comfort to it. And curtain holders in the bathroom save space in confined spaces.

Let's take a closer look at these interesting elements. As a bonus, below is an instruction, accompanied by a photo, that allows you to make do-it-yourself curtain holders from discs.

Types of wall elements

Stationary holders for window textiles are specially made and fixed hooks that are placed on the wall near the window and serve to hold curtains or curtains. In addition to independent use, they can play the role of an additional element for clamps, brushes, magnets and grabs, with the help of which amazingly beautiful interiors are created.

As the name suggests, the supporting element in question is fixed motionlessly. Therefore, first you need to decide on its appearance, design features and location.

Modern industry produces a huge number of types of holders. It is necessary to select this or that model based on the general style of room decoration, the color and texture of the fabric, as well as pieces of furniture and accessories.

Often, interior decorators try to use holders in the same style as the cornice. After all, it is the elements mentioned above that are constantly in sight, attracting the main attention.

Curtain holders can be made of the following materials:

  • wood;
  • plastic;
  • metal;
  • combinations of the above.

When choosing a model, take care of purchasing high-quality fasteners. Sometimes the required number of screws, screws and other accessories is already included in the kit.

Fixing features

Of great importance is not only the correct choice of the model, but also its location on the wall. Not too long ago any wall holder, regardless of shape and appearance, was fixed exactly at the level of the windowsill. But modern apartments and houses have a different configuration of window openings, therefore this option is not acceptable for all cases.

Among other things, you need to take into account the height of the ceilings in the room, the width of the window, as well as the features of its design, the ventilation and opening system.

The most common options are:

  • traditional, when the height of the fastening is at the same level with the window sill;
  • at a distance of about 2/3 of the height from the floor level;
  • about 20-30 cm lower than the windowsill.

If the curtains are short, a higher placement of the hooks is suitable, in the case where the textiles are long - it is preferable to place the holders closer to the floor. It should be noted that when a large amount of fabric is used in the design, it is necessary to provide an appropriate place along the edges of the window opening to collect it in the grips or holders.

But it must be borne in mind that the lower the holders are located, the less light enters the room. This can be useful when you need to decorate a not very pleasant view outside the window or hide detected frame defects.

It is best to try several options on site. For this, a wide tape is taken, with which the curtains are gathered into a bunch. Then one person applies the resulting impromptu grab to the wall, and the second looks at which option looks more organically in the interior of the room.

Directly fastening is carried out without any tweaks using a drill and a screwdriver.

In addition to stationary devices, holders resembling the well-known Japanese hair clips in shape and design give the curtains an excellent appearance. Let's take a look at how to make a do-it-yourself curtain holder. Moreover, ordinary CDs, in large quantities available in almost every home, are perfect for this. As a last resort, you can buy them, the low price will not be an obstacle.

The work consists of the following stages:

  1. First of all, you need to prepare the disks. For this, a circle is marked on the discs using a template (eg a conservation cover). It is necessary that the resulting ring is about 2-3 cm wide.
  2. Using a hot soldering iron either construction knife a cut is made according to a pre-applied markup. This must be done carefully so as not to destroy the outer ring.
  3. To facilitate the process, you can make cuts on both sides by turning the disc upside down. After that, the resulting "minidisk" will fall out by itself, without any effort on your part.
  4. The same sequence of actions must be done with another disc, since the work will require two rings, which are glued into one piece.
  5. To decorate the holder, textile flowers are used, which are characteristic elements of kanzashi hairpins. If you have sufficient skills and abilities, you can assemble them yourself using the components sold in stores. Otherwise, it is advisable to focus on ready-made elements.
  6. To make the plastic ring made of disks look presentable, it is wrapped with a textile tape of the desired shade and texture, 1 cm wide.The free end is fixed with glue, and then everything is carefully and thoroughly covered free space... At the end, everything is also fixed with glue.
  7. After that, the flower arrangement is assembled into a single whole. For this purpose, previously collected flowers are used, as well as leaves purchased additionally. Additionally, you can take beads, rhinestones and other accessories.
  8. Ring design can be any. It all depends on your imagination and the design of the room as a whole.
  9. To fix the kanzashi on textiles, an ordinary Chinese sushi stick is used, decorated with ribbons, flowers and leaves so that it matches the style of the previously made ring.
  10. The finished element is fixed to the curtain in any convenient place.
