My attempt to attach a photo didn't work. The instructions for doing this at FAQ don't match what is on the actual threads.

How is this done? My photo is a simple JPEG file on my desktop.

I used a spring tension curtain rod for the curtain I hung in the hallway to zone off the bedroom in my 2017 Greyhawk. Available cheap and different lengths at Walmart. No holes to drill.
