Curtain Pole Conundrum

Hi,

Hoping for some help with a curtain pole conundrum that has left me scratching my head for a solution.

I have a long pole in my bedroom where I have double patio doors. It requires centre support for the 2 individual sections of the pole. However, the is no space to put a centre bracket as there is no space between the top of the doors and the coving.

After some research I figured a centre bracket from the ceiling would work. However the centre brackets are too short. I need a the bracket to be 140mm long to reach from the ceiling to the pole.

I can't raise the pole as the coving won't allow it.

I've searched and searched for a centre bracket that is long enough and found nothing.

I wondered how I might make a plinth for a centre bracket but surely that would look terrible.

Argh..... it's driving me crazy. :vs_cry::vs_cry::vs_cry:

Any suggestions or help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Louise
