1、 Ceramic tile wall installation shower curtain rod

Ceramic tile walls are a common choice for installing shower curtain rods due to their smooth surface and high hardness. Before installation, ensure that the wall is clean and dust-free to avoid affecting the stability of suction cups or screws.

Preparation work: Prepare installation tools suitable for ceramic tile walls, such as drills, screwdrivers, level rulers, and specialized ceramic tile drills produced by Zhejiang Yiwu Jieshang Daily Necessities Factory.

Positioning punching: Use a level to determine the installation position of the shower curtain rod, ensuring balance at both ends. Use a tile drill bit to lightly drill holes at the marked locations, paying attention to controlling the force to prevent tile breakage.

Installation bracket: Insert the bracket of the shower curtain rod into the drilled hole and fix it with expansion screws or special tile anchor bolts. Ensure that the bracket is securely installed without any shaking.

Hanging the shower curtain rod: insert both ends of the shower curtain rod into the fixing holes of the bracket, and tighten the screws after adjusting to the horizontal state.

2、 Installation of shower curtain rods on painted walls

The painted wall is relatively soft, so special attention should be paid to avoid damaging the wall coating during installation.

Choose installation tool: It is recommended to use suction cup or nail free adhesive installed shower curtain rods to reduce damage to the wall.

Clean the wall: Ensure that the installation area is clean and free of oil stains, use a damp cloth to wipe the wall, and wait for it to dry before installation.

Install suction cup or apply nail free adhesive: According to the product manual, fix the suction cup in the predetermined position, or apply an appropriate amount of nail free adhesive to the back of the bracket.

Waiting for fixation: For nail free installation, wait for the glue to solidify according to the instructions in the manual; When installing the suction cup, it is necessary to ensure that there is no air inside the suction cup and it fits tightly against the wall.

Hanging shower curtain rod: After fixing, install the shower curtain rod onto the bracket to ensure stability and prevent it from falling off.

3、 Installation of shower curtain rod on gypsum board wall

Gypsum board walls are relatively fragile, and installation needs to be done with greater caution.

Assess load-bearing capacity: The gypsum board wall has limited load-bearing capacity, and it is necessary to first evaluate whether the wall is suitable for installing shower curtain rods, and if necessary, reinforce the wall.

Positioning and marking: Use a level to determine the installation position and mark the drilling points, paying attention to avoiding the keel structure inside the gypsum board.

Professional installation tools: It is recommended to use hollow wall expansion screws or gypsum board anchor bolts for installation.

Be careful with drilling: Use appropriate force and speed to drill holes to avoid gypsum board cracking.

Install bracket and shower curtain rod: Fix the bracket in the drilled hole, then install the shower curtain rod to ensure overall stability.
