You have two options to determine your drapery width:

Tell us your ideal drapery width

Tell us your window size and we’ll help calculate the drapery width

Ripplefold drapes can only be used with a compatible ripplefold track. When you enter your measurements below, you’ll see the size and price for your drapes as well as your track.

1Enter the width of your window, A:

2Enter the space to the left and right of your window. We recommend making your track as wide as possible.

B: C:

3Ripplefold drapes are made from fabric that’s 1.6 to 2.5 times wider than the track. This is referred to as fullness. Please select your fullness below:

1.6x
1.8x
2.0x
2.5x

4Would you like this to be one big drape or split into two smaller ones?

Two drapes
One drape, stacked left
One drape, stacked right

Enter your drape width in inches:

How many of these drapes would you like?

Keep in mind drapes need to be between 1.5 to 3 times wider than the window they cover so you get that nice, wavy drapery look. This is referred to as fullness.

We recommend a minimum fullness of 2x. This means if your window is 50” wide, the drape width you enter above should be 100” (or you can do 2 drapes that are each 50”).

1What should be the finished (pleated) width of your drape? This is the max space this drape would cover when fully open:

2To get this finished width, we will use between 2 to 3 times as much fabric. This is referred to as the fullness. You can select your fullness below. For 3-pinch pleat and European pleat, please select a minimum of 2.5x.

2.5x

3How many of these drapes would you like?

Measurements: Length

You have two options to determine your drape length:

Tell us your ideal drape length

Tell us your window size and we’ll help calculate the drape length

Enter your drape length in inches:

Pro tip 1: The top of a grommet or rod pocket drape will sit 1” above the top of your rod. So if the top of your rod is 100” above the floor and you want your drapes just touching the floor, your drape length should be 101”.

Pro tip 2: We recommend getting your drapes with a 1-2” “puddle” (so in the above example, your length would be 102”-103”). This will disguise any variance in height if your rod (or floor) is not perfectly level.

Pro tip 1: When you hang your drapes, the top of the drape will sit about 1” below the top of your track. So if the top of your track is 100” above the floor and you want your drapes just touching the floor, your drape length should be 99”.

Pro tip 2: We recommend getting your drapes with a 1-2” “puddle” (so in the above example, your length would be 100”-101”). This will disguise any variance in height if your rod/track, ceiling or floor is not perfectly level.

1To find the right length for your drape, first measure the distance from the top of your track/rod to the floor, A:

2We recommend getting your drapes with a 1-2” “puddle”. This will disguise any variance in height if your track/rod (or floor) is not perfectly level. Enter your puddle length, B:

If you want your drapes just touching the floor, B should be 0. If you want them slightly above the floor, then enter -0.5 or -1 as B.

3What are you planning to use to hang your drapes?

Rod Track I don’t know yet

Fun fact: When you hang your drapes, the top of the drape will sit about 1” above the top of your track so we will actually make your drape 1” longer than A+B.

Fun fact: When you hang your drapes, the top of the drape will sit about 1” below the top of your track so we will actually make your drape 1” shorter than A+B.

Great product, glad I took the plunge

I was nervous to buy curtains that were more expensive than what you get at Target or Amazon but I couldn't find sizes that worked for the big windows. Two things I would have done differently: 1. I should have listened to Meskens recommendation to achieve appropriate fullness, I did 1.5x instead of the recommended 2x and I wish I had done the 2x. and 2. I probably would have gotten blackout lining on all of my drapes because the Bowery still lets some light through in the daytime when they are closed. I thought because they were black, getting blackout was maybe overkill so I only did on the drapes going in my bedroom but if you want full blackout - pay the money for the lining. But, even though I would have done those things differently in hindsight, I'm still overall happy with what I ordered and will probably order from here again if I ever move into a different home. This is a high quality product.

Best value / quality out there!

We’ve used Mesken for all our bedrooms after buying our first house. We absolutely love the quality, the overall value, and customer experience that they provide! We have recommended them to all of our friends.

Great Quality, Great Experience

I took a chance without ordering swatches first, and I love how my ivory bowery curtains turned out. I got 2 x the width as suggested and I worried they would be too full, but they're not. I got the room darkening liner and it's just enough to block out most of the lights from all of the townhouse porch/garage lights right outside my large window, but doesn't keep me from waking up naturally in the morning. The quality feels really substantial. Chloe in customer service was awesome when she caught that I had initially ordered one large curtain instead of two - I would have been a wreck had it arrive as one large curtain! All around super positive experience, would order again.

great product, great service!!

Everything about this company is super.
Help when needed, product quality and service on all levels is truly great.
Would order again in a heartbeat.

I love my curtains!!

I ordered curtains for a very large sliding glass door, with a blackout liner. I did a lot of research and once I realized my curtains would need to be a custom size, the price tag was looking really high! Mesken was by far the best deal, and the only trick is you need to do the measurements yourself, but their customer service was super helpful with this and their directions were really clear. The curtains feel like really good quality and look amazing. And the blackout liner is SO DARK. Truly blackout, so do keep that in mind! Highly highly recommend this company for any non-standard size curtains!
