Measure the window and mounting position and confirm that the rod's 70–120 cm adjustment range fits.
The RÄCKA combination 596.339.77 includes two brackets and finials, but suitable wall screws and plugs must be obtained separately.
Identify the wall substrate—masonry, wood or drywall—and choose fixings rated for it and the expected load. Consult an installer if unsure.
Using secure access equipment and IKEA's assembly instructions, mount the two brackets firmly and check the rod is level.
Hang curtains so their weight is evenly distributed, staying within the 5 kg load limit for this 70–120 cm model.
Inspect brackets, rod and finials for looseness. Remove dust with a dry cloth and stop use if the fixings or wall appear insecure.
