How much do custom curtains cost?
Custom made curtains ordered online cost $173 for a sheer S-Fold pair on an 1800 mm window and $355 for a thermal pinch pleat pair on a 2400 mm window, including GST. Showroom measure-and-install services usually quote more because the visit and installation are built in.
Price by window size

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1,200 mm | $149 | $149 | $157 | $199 |
| 1,800 mm | $173 | $215 | $236 | $299 |
| 2,400 mm | $230 | $286 | $314 | $398 |
| 3,000 mm | $287 | $357 | $392 | $497 |
| 4,200 mm | $402 | $500 | $549 | $696 |
What drives the cost
Fabric is bought by the metre, and curtains use more fabric than the window is wide. S-Fold uses 2.2 metres of fabric per metre of track, pinch pleat about 2. So a 3000 mm sliding door needs around 6.6 metres of fabric width before hems. That is why width moves the price far more than drop.
Fabric weight is next. Sheer is the lightest and cheapest. Thermal has an extra backing and is the heaviest.
Online vs in-home service
With a measure-and-install service you pay for the visit and the fitting as well as the curtains. Ordering online, you measure and hang them yourself, and we check your measurements against a photo before anything is cut.
