ALVA B00Q2FZYIK Euro Pleat Drapes Instruction Manual
STEP 1: CHOOSE A SINGLE PANEL OR PAIR? COVERAGE SINGLE PANEL (Left,
Right or Center)
- Made to cover an entire span or as a decorative stationary panel
- Overlaps and returns are added to ordering width by workroom.
STEP 2: SELECT TOTAL DRAPERY WIDTH COVERAGE
Measure the width of the area you would like to cover. This is your ordering width (fullness is already accounted for). If your drapery needs to be functional (open and close), the total coverage width should equal the same span, left to right, that your hardware does.
Tips: We recommend whenever possible to extend out from the edges of your window or doors as much as 6″ – 12″ on each side. This will help make the area look larger, and will also maintain as much natural light as possible when the Drapery panels are open.
If ordering stationary Drapery panels that don’t need to close (stationary Drapery panels) you can consider ordering drapery with less coverage while still getting a finished look. See chart to right.
STEP 3: SELECT FINISHED DRAPERY LENGTH
- Take the measurement from the top of where you will mount the hardware to the floor (for wall mount) or from ceiling to floor (for ceiling mount).
- Deduct based on your Rod Selection using the tables below.
- Deduct an additional 1/2” for floor clearance or for draperies being opened and closed frequently.
- Add (1/4” – 3/4”) for a small break or (1” – 4”) for a Puddle.
Workroom Note:
- As with all fabrics made of natural fibers, there may be slight changes in the fabric over time due to a number of variables including humidity, temperature and moisture. This is considered normal. If this is a concern, consider ordering a length that includes a small puddle.
- Synthetic materials stretch less.

Workroom Notes:
- Allow 1″ clearance when wall mounting a pole with rings to ceiling line so rings can move freely
- Standard returns are 3.5” on all drapery except Rod Pocket.
- Custom return sizes available as custom request
- Rod Pocket – Top of Drapery = top of pole. Allow ½”- 1″ extra in length due to length that will be lost when fabric is “gathered” onto the rod.
