How to Measure Window Curtains

Before purchasing your window treatments you will want to decide how you want them to hang.
They may hang on the inside or the outside of the window. To measure you will need a pencil, steel measuring tape and paper.

Single or Double Hung Windows

1. Measure the width of the window frame.
   (A to B)

2. Measure the length of the window frame.
   (C to D)

3. Measure the length from the top of the window frame to the floor.
   (E to F)
   

Determining Proper Width
When measuring the width of your window (A to B), be sure to consider whether you are hanging your curtain hardware on the inside or outside of the window trim. If you are aiming for a fuller, gathered look, make sure to multiply your measurement by 2.5x.

Determining Proper Length
Consider the look you want to achieve and where you want the bottom of your curtains to fall. Panels are usually hung so they fall anywhere from the window sill (C to D) or to the floor (E to F). Typically, panels are hung 4 inches above the window frame.
The most common panel lengths are 54″, 63″, 84″ and 95″.

Helpful Tips:
Consider pooling your drapes for a more dramatic effect, this means your drapes will gather on the floor.
If you have baseboard heating, consider whether you want to cover or have curtains end just above baseboard.

Bay Windows

1. Measure the width of each window.
   (A to B, B to C, C to D)

2. Measure the length from the top of the window to the window sill
   (E to F)

3. Measure the length from the top of the window to the floor.
   (G to H)
   

Determining Window Widths
Measure the width of each window. A typical bay window has left, center and right windows.
If you have additional windows, measure those windows as well.

Determining Proper Length
Consider the look you want to achieve and where you want the bottom of your curtains to fall.

Helpful Tips:
For a more dramatic effect, consider pooling the bottom of your curtains on the floor.
