Arthes,
Using the curtain pole as a kontos is certainly valid as is using a cataphract to block the hall. I would be cautious of skirmishers lurking in linen closets who may appear behind the cataphracts. Using cats as cataphracts was my first impulse, but then, you may find them unreliable as they generally lack good discipline, having very high self esteem and are more suited for roles like the Praetorian Guard.
