Order Correct Width & Length

Panel width is the width that pleats already set.
Length is measured from the bottom of the curtain rod to the floor.
For better-looking curtains, we recommend choosing 2x fullness or 1.5x fullness.

Stacked Width

To ensure full window visibility when drapery is opened, factor in stacked width for rod length determination.
Normally stacking width account for 20% of drapery width.
