That mechanism is the entire product. A weak one loses grip the first time the room heats up and the frame moves a millimetre; a good one keeps pressing outward as the gap changes, which is why a properly fitted telescopic rod survives a bathroom that goes from cold to steaming twice a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other thing the mechanism buys you is portability. Nothing here is permanent. You take it down when you move, wind it to a new width, and it fits the next place — which is the difference between a fitting and a purchase you have to leave behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe three sizes in a real room\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e30-50cm\u003c\/strong\u003e — the short one.
