Shower curtain hooks
I bought a new shower curtain, which has reinforced eyes for the hooks.
The rail is a type you see in hospitals, L shaped with a support from the ceiling in the middle at the bend, so ordinary loops cannot be used over the rail. The rail has 13 plastic runners in it, with a small hole. The usual curly plastic curtain hooks this type https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Curtain-H...6cVCriZMP8gzDA - are too narrow at the narrowest part of the hook, to fit on the rail runner, or the curtain eyelet. They work fine on a curtain without reinfrced eyes. I have been unable to find any wider hooks, so for now I have had to botch it with metal sew on hooks. Surely there should be something made to fit a shower curtain to a rail properly? |
