These products provide a method for mounting shower curtain rods without the use of drilling or screws. They utilize an adhesive backing to affix to bathroom surfaces, and may be acquired from a major home improvement retailer. An example of their use is in apartments or rentals where permanent alterations are restricted.
The principal advantage of this approach lies in its ease of installation and lack of permanent damage. It is particularly valuable in situations where drilling is impractical or undesirable. Historically, shower curtain rods were typically mounted using screw-in brackets, but adhesive options provide a simpler, less invasive alternative.
