How to Measure
How to Measure - Width
The width you enter when placing your order will be the total width of your track.
Width for Sheer Curtains.
Decide where you would like to position your curtain track.
For a centre opening ensure you balance the sheer equally on either side of the window or door. Michael recommends approx. 100mm overlap on either side.
Width for Blockout & Room Darkening Curtains
Decide where you would like to position your curtain track.
The stack width is approx. 1/3 the width of the track.
Consider your track placement and overall width to try and place as much of the stack as possible onto the wall. This will free up your glass and allow for more view and natural light.
Measuring Ceiling Mount - Cornices
If you are measuring wall to wall, you may need to consider the cornices. The width of the track will need to be measured between the cornices.
Michael’s tip - When you are taking the measurement between cornices, just give yourself about 5mm clearance on either side.
Opening Options
Consider the best opening option for your window. Should you go for a centre-open, free-floating or a one-way stack?
