Curtains

  • Affix the track or pole before taking your measurements.
  • The track or pole should extend beyond the window at either side, to allow room for the curtains to be drawn back off the window during the day.

Width:

  • Measure the track or pole, NOT the window itself.
  • Measure the width of the track from end to end, if the track overlaps in the middle you must include the overlap.
  • Measure the width of the pole between the decorative finials.
  • To optimise the light from your window we recommend your pole extends approximately 30cm either side of the window for Goblets and Tab Top curtains.

Length:

  • For tracks measure from the top of the track to allow it to be hidden by the curtains.
  • For poles measure from the underside of the curtain ring to allow the pole to be seen above the curtains (this is for Goblet, Pinch Pleat and Standard Pencil Pleat Curtains).
  • For Eyelet curtains measure from the top of the pole.
  • For Tab Top curtains measure from the top of the pole; to minimise light exposure we recommend you position your pole 15cm above the top of the window.
