Default Curtain rail fixing

Ahh. You've got lightweight blocks. In which case you want fixings specifically designed for them.


And will probably need large screws which might not be suitable for the
curtain track brackets. By far the best way is to put up a wooden batten
with good hefty screws into suitable sized plugs. This will also give
you the advantage of being able to fix the brackets where *you* want
them rather than having to dodge around mortar lines or cavities in the
blocks.
