Measuring Curtains

Step 1: Choose the type of confirmation

First decide how you want to hang the curtains:

  • Curtain rails → measure the length of the rails.
  • Curtain rod with rings → measure the length of the rod, excluding the decorative finials.
  • Curtain rod with loops or rings → measure the total width of the rod.

Step 2: Measure width

  • Measure the full width of your rail or rod.

📌 Tip: When measuring curtains, it is better to take a slightly wider measurement so that no light comes through.

Step 3: Measure height/length

This depends on the hanging method:

  • For a rail → measure from the bottom of the rail to the desired length.
  • For a rod with rings → measure from the bottom of the rings to the desired length.
  • For a rod with loops or eyelets → measure from the top of the rod.

💡 Common lengths:

  • Up to the windowsill → end 1-2 cm above the windowsill.
  • To the floor → keep 1-3 cm clearance above the floor for a neat appearance.
