Abstract: A drapery pole installation system is provided having an elongated generally cylindrical drapery pole forming an elongated slot extending the length thereof. Intermediate support for the drapery pole is provided by one or more intermediate hangers adapted to extend from a wall structure of a building with fingers extending in supporting relation within the elongated slot of the drapery pole. End support for the drapery pole is provided by elbows which are supported by substantially concealed brackets and which effectively compensate for slight errors in drapery pole measurement. The drapery support elbows have hollow receptacles at one end and support apertures that receive support pins of the wall mounted brackets.
