How do I determine the width and height of my curtains?

The width of the curtain is determined by the width of the rail or rod. If the curtains are installed “on the day”, we advise you to calculate at least 20 cm extra width on both sides of the window.

If you work with an electric rail, the motor must be taken into account and extra fabric is needed to cover it.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE HEIGHT OF THE CURTAIN

  • Free-hanging curtains with rings: measure from the bottom of the rings (the rod and rings will remain visible)
  • Eyelets on rod:measure +3 cm extra from the top of the rod for the top of the curtain.
  • Curtain on rods: measure -0.5 cm from the bottom of the rail (the rod rail remains visible).
  • WAVE confection: measure -0.5 cm from the bottom of the rail (the rail remains visible).

For curtains above a windowsill, we advise you to subtract 1cm from the height measurement. For curtains above the floor, we advise you to subtract at least 1.5 cm to 2 cm from the height measurement.

If you order both net curtains and curtains, it is advisable to order the net curtains 1 cm shorter than the curtains
