Standard curtain drops typically refer to the common lengths available for ready-made curtains. These lengths are designed to suit various window heights and personal styling preferences, such as pooling slightly on the floor or just touching the sill.
Standard Ready-Made Curtain Drops
According to standard availabilities for ready-made curtains, there are primarily three common drop sizes. These sizes are widely offered to fit typical window dimensions in many homes.
Here are the standard ready-made curtain drops:
| Drop (cm) | Drop (inches) |
|---|---|
| 137 | 54 |
| 183 | 72 |
| 228 | 90 |
These measurements represent the length of the curtain fabric from the top (where it hangs from the pole or track) to the bottom edge.
Additional Sizes
While the sizes listed above are the most common standards for ready-made options, some manufacturers also produce curtains in larger sizes. A frequently offered larger drop is:
- 274 cm (108 inches)
For designs available in these and other larger sizes, you may need to check specific product ranges. As noted in some references, you can view available designs in these lengths under categories like "Larger Sizes".
Choosing the correct curtain drop is essential for achieving the desired look and functionality, whether you want the curtains to fall just above the floor, pool elegantly, or stop at the windowsill.
