Be careful when installing

I was hesitant to buy this based on reviews saying it will break but it was what I was looking for so I bought it knowing while the Installation to be careful. Aside from that, yes, it's hard to install without damaging it. I totally understand why they break. The bracket that attaches to the wall is simple, it is more difficult to put a hook on this bracket. It's very tight and you have to use some brute force to get it fully onto the brace and the area where you have to press that hook is the

Good product - some fitting tips

Very good unit in excellent condition with all the necessary parts. I'm taking off a star because there are no instructions. For installation you will need a drill, a screwdriver and a hammer. Tip 1: The two holders are not identical - one for the left and one for the right - so make sure to mount them so that the small screw is at the bottom and not visible. Tip 2: If the anchor plate is too close to the window frame on the wall, you won't be able to mount the bracket because the window frame…
