Sizing method

How this curtain size calculator turns measurements into panel sizes

The calculator first finds the rod or track length, then multiplies that coverage width by your curtain fullness ratio. It divides the total fabric width by one ready-made panel width, rounds up to a real panel count, and adjusts the finished length for hover, kiss, break, or puddle styling.

Use it for living room curtains, bedroom blackout curtains, sliding glass doors, rental-friendly rods, sheer layers, and wide windows where guessing panel count can leave the curtains too thin. The result is a planning number, so always compare it with the package label and the hardware limits before checkout.
