Handmade to measure
For a perfect fit
Measuring Guide For Curtain Poles
All measurements should be provided in cm (unless the website gives you the option to provide the measurements in mm on inches). Always use a metal rule when taking the measurements. If you are replacing a curtain poles or track, we advise that you measure the width of the existing fitting rather than the window. If measuring a poles, do not include the finials (decorative ends) in your measurements.

Choosing the right pole diameter
When choosing a curtain pole, the required diameter will depend on the weight of the curtains. The table offers a guide to selecting a suitably sized pole depending on the curtain weight.
Remember to take into account any extra weight such as linings. Also please note that pencil pleat curtains for example will have a greater fullness than a curtain with eyelets therefore the weight can be greater.
