In a spring-loaded curtain mount, the mount includes a pole interface at a proximal end, a compressive mechanism, and a head at a distal end. The pole interface is adapted to receive the end of a standard length adjustable pole or a painter's pole. The compression mechanism is disposed between the proximal end of the mount and the head. The mount includes a coupling device adapted to receive a portion of a curtain. During installation, the curtain mount is coupled to the end of an extension pole and the length of the pole is adjusted such that the combined length of the pole and mount is slightly longer than the distance between the floor and ceiling. At ground level, a portion of the curtain is attached to the head of the curtain mount. The curtain and mount are raised to the ceiling and the mount and pole are compressed between the floor and the ceiling. This compressive force operates to urge the head toward the ceiling, securing the mount in place.

[ I claim:] [1.] A mount attachable to an extension pole erected between a floor and a ceiling for installing a curtain comprising:an interface at a proximal end of said mount adapted for coupling the mount to an extension pole;a compression mechanism;a head at a distal end of said mount, said head and said proximal end of said mount coupled to opposite ends of said compression mechanism; anda coupler adapted for coupling a portion of a curtain to said mount, said coupler comprising a clip plate having a pin and wherein the head includes a keyhole and slot for mating with the pin such that the pin is insertable into the keyhole and slideable along said slot, for securing a portion of the curtain to the head, such that upon installation of said mount on an extension pole erected between a floor and a ceiling, the curtain to be installed is supported by said coupler and said head is urged toward said ceiling by said compression mechanism.
