When using a double-door curtain, there is a slight gap when it is closed. Especially for the curtains at the bedside, I am worried that the streetlights will come in at night and the morning sun will be dazzling, so the magnets on the curtain rails may not be enough and I sometimes use clothespins.
I found an item in Nitori that can easily solve such a problem. This time, we would like to introduce "Gap Prevention Magnet Clip".
Nitori's "Gap Prevention Magnet Clip" is a clip that can close the gap of a double-door curtain with the force of a magnet. Since it is displayed in the curtain section at the store, it may be a product that is often overlooked if it is not needed.
The price is 370 yen (excluding tax) for 2 sets. Make sure the magnets don't repel each other and use a pair that sticks together.
When used, the image is that the edges of the curtain are slightly overlapped. Attach one clip so that the magnet is visible on the surface of the curtain, and the other so that the magnet is on the lining of the curtain. The clip opens quite tightly, and even adults need a little force to put it on and take it off. Since it cannot be dropped or easily removed by that amount, it seems to be safe to use even in a house with children and pets.
As I closed the curtains, the magnets naturally stuck together a few centimeters away, and the curtains overlapped firmly. If you adjust while checking the balance with the magnet of the curtain rail, you can close a pair of tall curtains without any gaps.
Is it subtle when you open the window?
Since the magnetic force is weaker than that of a bare magnet, the magnet may not be able to withstand and come off depending on the wind direction and strength. There was no particular inconvenience when using it for lace curtains at the author's house, but if you mainly want to use it with the windows open, you may not be able to expect the original effect.The clip is translucent, so it's a nice point not to spoil the atmosphere of the interior. If you are worried about the gap, please try it!
