For a perfect fit
Use our simple step by step guides and videos to find out how to measure for curtain poles and curtain tracks. Always use a metal rule when taking the measurements and provide measurements in cm (unless the website mm or inch options). If replacing curtain poles or tracks, measure the width of the existing fitting rather than the window. If measuring a pole, do not include the finials (decorative ends) in your measurements.
We always advise that you measure the curtain track or poles width, not the window. If you are fitting a new track or poles this should extend 15cm to 20cm either side of the window. This will allow the curtains to be stacked either side of the window.
Curtain Poles
Measure the length of the poles between the finials (decorative ends).
Curtain Rails
Measure the length of the rail. If you have a rail with an overlap in the centre, measure the length of the rail and add the overlap to this measurement.
The length of your curtains depends on your preference. Typical length measurements as follows.
A: Full length, which is approximately 1.5 to 3cm above the floor level
B: Above the radiator, typically 1 to 3cm above the radiator.
C: Below the window sill, typically around 15cm.
Tab Top & Eyelet Curtains
For Tab Top or eyelet curtains you should take your measurements from the very top of the curtain pole.
Pencil, Pinch & Wave Pleat
Measure from the top of the track or bottom of the curtain rings to the desired length of your curtains.
Once you have entered your curtain pole or rail width, we will calculate the amount of fabric required for your curtains. Some headings require more fullness or gathering than others so these headings will require more fabric which is reflected in the price of the curtains.
All curtains are made in increments of 1/2 widths:
Pencil Pleat 1.17
Pinch Pleat 2.25
Wave Pleat 2.0
Tab Top 1.5
Eyelet 1.5
You will need an eyelet larger than your pole diameter, to ensure that the eyelets can move freely along your pole. The table below should help you in making this decision
Eyelet Size | Suitable Pole Diameter |
---|---|
66mm | 45mm |
40mm | 35mm |
40mm | 28mm |
