There is a saying we use out in the construction field, “Measure twice, Cut once (or Drill once).” First, one trick I use is I mark where the first rod hook will go, then I measure from the ceiling down to that mark. Then I measure the distance for your next rod hook and use a pencil and make my second mark, but to make sure the rod will be level, I use the ceiling height measure from my first rod hook, which will give me the level mark I’m looking for.
