Sagging wardrobe rail straightened and reinforced with centre support bracket. Stops the bow in the middle and prevents clothes dragging on the floor.
### When Your Rail Looks Like A Smile
The centre of your wardrobe rail is **bowing down under the weight**, clothes in the middle touching the bottom, hangers bunched together.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Rails sag because they're unsupported across too long a span. Add a centre bracket and the problem's solved - simple physics.

### Why Rails Sag (And How To Stop It)
| ✅ Fixed Properly | ❌ Still Sagging | |------------------|------------------| | Centre support taking the weight | Tightened end brackets (still bows) | | Rail straight across full width | Curved like a banana | | Even spacing for hangers | Everything bunched in middle | | Brackets secured into solid points | Pulling away from wall |
Just tightening the ends doesn't help if the **rail itself is too long**. You need support in the middle.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Unload and Check Take clothes off so I can see the actual rail. Check if it's bent or just sagging, measure the span, see what support's needed. ### Step 2: Add Support Fit centre support bracket to the back panel at midpoint. Straighten rail if it's bowed. Tighten or upgrade end brackets if they're loose. ### Step 3: Reload and Test Hang clothes back up and check rail stays straight under normal load. Should be solid with no droop.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Multiple wardrobes sagging?** I'll do them all in one visit - once I've got the brackets and tools out, each additional wardrobe is quick. **Flatpack wardrobes with thin back panels?** Centre support might need careful positioning or a reinforcing plate if the back panel's really flimsy. I'll advise what's needed when I see it. **Very wide fitted wardrobes?** Sometimes there's no back panel to fix to. In that case I can fit a ceiling-mounted support strap or upgrade to a heavier-duty rail system. Depends on what you've got.
Frequently Asked Questions about Wardrobe rail sagging fix in Exmouth
Why is my wardrobe rail sagging in the middle?
It's too long without support, or overloaded, or both. Rails over about 1.5m need a centre support bracket or they'll bow. Even strong rails will sag if they're holding too much weight across a long span.
Can you fix it without replacing the whole rail?
Usually yes - adding a centre support bracket sorts most sagging rails. If the rail's actually bent, I might need to replace it, but often straightening and supporting it does the job.
Will a centre support get in the way of my clothes?
Not really - it's just a small bracket at the back. You'll need to slide hangers past it when adding clothes, but once things are hung it's not noticeable.
What if the ends are also pulling out?
Then we need to address the end brackets too - tighten them, plug and re-drill if the holes are stripped, or upgrade to stronger brackets. I'll assess what's needed.
How much weight can the rail hold after you've fixed it?
With proper centre support, a good oval rail will hold 30-40kg - that's a properly full wardrobe. Should handle everything you need unless you're storing actual lead weights in there.
