Hello,

I have a large window (about LxH : 4x3m / 12x10ft) that consists of several in my rented flat . At the top there are three fixations with small round holes. The window is stuck between two walls, which means I cannot easily pass through a long bar from either the left or the right. I would like to install light curtains and be able to open and close them completely. Also, I cannot drill holes in the walls or use any "destructive" solutions. What solutions would you use? I was thinking maybe a wire or an extendable rod, but I feel like the curtains would be stuck by the fixations, and I don't know how to hold the rods in the middle. Another solution would be to hang a fixation system on these fixations, but I don't know if the 3 fixations would be enough.

Thank you for your help!

PS: please let me know if you feel like this belongs to another subreddit

Schematic with the fixations in blue, walls on the side. The bottom panes are a bit opaque.
