How to measure for a one corner bay window pole…

Here’s how to measure up for a curtain pole made to fit a one corner bay configuration or similar.

You can find information about bay window poles in general here: About Bay Curtain poles

Different curtain pole styles and options can be found here: Curtain Pole Styles

Along the walls
Measure in millimetres from A to B =
Measure in millimetres from B to C =
Diagonal
Measure in millimetres from A to C =

Along the Return walls too?

If you’d like the pole to continue around the return walls please also measure:

Measure in millimetres from 1 to A =
Measure in millimetres from 2 to F =

Take measurements along the walls at pole fixing height and include the full length of each wall section (even for ceiling fix poles).
If necessary state the distance you’d like between the wall and the pole (the default is 45mm)
If necessary state where you’d like the finial to end (the default is the mouth of the bay). The poles can have return bends too.
Measure in millimetres as errors can accumulate and please don’t assume opposites are equal as they quite often aren’t.
Use a metal tape measure, held taut for straight lengths (fabric or fibre-glass tape flat along curved walls).

You’ll need someone to give you a hand especially for the diagonals but just measure the walls as we’ll calculate the allowances for brackets.

We can make a pole fit with remarkably little space for brackets but please let us know if there are any potential issues.

How much will it cost?

There’s a price calculator which will give you a good idea of the cost too.
