Do I need to drill holes to install these?

Can I buy matching curtain poles?

Troubleshooting

Holdbacks feel loose after installation.

Ensure the screws are tightened securely into the wall. If mounting on drywall, verify that appropriate wall anchors or plugs are used and properly seated.

Difficulty draping heavy curtains.

Confirm that the holdbacks are mounted at a suitable height and distance from the window to accommodate the curtain's width and weight. The robust metal design should support most fabrics.

Rust spots appearing on the holdbacks.

While designed to be rust-proof, inspect the finish for any damage. Clean gently with a damp cloth. If rust persists, it may indicate a manufacturing defect, and warranty options should be explored.

Included fittings do not suit the wall type.

The provided fittings are standard. For specialized wall types (e.g., plasterboard without studs, brick), you may need to purchase appropriate wall anchors or fixings from a local hardware store.
