We use this shower rods, of which we in the meantime have a whole lot, to clamp down on summer between the balcony doors. By this we then attach a thin voile or another forehand. So the flies and mosquitoes outside and the curious glances remain. We do not like the fly screen and so this is the ideal solution. To the winter, everything will be removed and stowed.
The telescopic pole is a clamp rod with two rubber pads. These hold bombproof. Inside the bar is a spiral. One simply pushes out the rod so long, until you reach the desired width. Is it too far slipped out, so you put a rod of the two on the other side back in and starts again. Ideal solution if you do not want drilling or dowels.
