Abstract: A treatment for mounting on a vertical structure, the treatment comprising a continuous insertion means or plurality of insertion elements and a drapery rod having a central axis. The drapery rod also has at least one channel groove. The at least one channel groove includes an opening narrower than the insertion means or elements. Further, the at least one channel groove is substantially parallel with the central axis of the drapery rod to allow the continuous insertion means or elements to be placed therein. The insertion means or insertion elements fit within the at least one channel groove. Finally, the drapery rod is supported at either end by end brackets which have a mating profile for fitting within the channel groove.
