Measure Total Height

How to measure
Everhem Experts recommend mounting at the vertical halfway point on your window. If there are grid lines on your windows, we recommend mounting in line with the horizontal grid line that lands closest to the vertical halfway point.
‍
Starting from the approximate mounting height found, measure the length from that point down to the bottom inside edge of the window, rounding down to the nearest 1/8” of an inch. Record the measurement below.

Step 2

Measure Width

Along the approximate mounting height found, measure the width from inside edge to inside edge of the window, rounding down to the nearest 1/8” of an inch. Record the measurements below.
On the flat part of your window’s trim, locate the centerpoint of your trim’s flat mounting space.

Along the approximate mounting height found, measure the width from trim centerpoint to trim centerpoint of the window, rounding up to the nearest 1/8” of an inch. Record the measurement below.

Use your own hardware?

Our drapery is designed specifically and sized for our Rod & Ring mounting hardware. If using your own hardware, you may need to adjust your mounting height to account for your specific rod and ring diameter, which will affect where the top of the drapery hangs from.

If you need help, please feel free to contact us! Our designers can help you choose the best option for your unique situation.

Designer Dropdown Recommendation
After you’ve determined your mounting height, deduct the outer diameter of the rings you will use to hang your drapery. This will ensure your drapery panel length will just kiss the floor.
Our designers recommend...
We recommended a {panel_type} configuration based on your measurements.
Our designers recommend...
We recommend a Four-Panel configuration since your window is over 12 feet wide.
