Product Usage Instructions
- Track Width
- To determine the track width for your curtains, please follow these steps:
- Measure the width of your window or sliding door using a metal measuring tape.
- Add 20-30% to the measured width. This will allow the curtains to hang off the glass when open and let maximum sunlight come through.
- The curtain stack will be around 1/3 of the track width.
- Curtain Drop
- To determine the curtain drop for your curtains, please follow these steps:
- Measure the distance from the top of the track to the bottom of the curtains.
- If you want the curtain to hang off the floor, subtract 20mm from the measured drop.
- If you want the curtains to drag on the floor, add 30mm or more to the measured drop.

- Wall to Wall width: Subtract 40mm from the width as the finished track width.
