How to calculate the stack-back of custom drapes

Stack-back is important to consider when selecting your track width, as it determines how much space is needed on either side of the window for the drapes to allow maximum visibility and light.

Our online drapery stack-back calculator below enables you to calculate stack back for:

  • Ripplefold drapery with butt master
  • Ripplefold drapery with overlap master
  • Pinch pleat drapery on a traverse track
