3 sided "U-shaped exposure - worksheet

3-sided exposures are the most common of all applications. If your sides have a sloped hanging surfaces, be sure to check Sloped panels. The two most common panel configurations are 2 panels that meet somewhere in the middle of your center face and 3-panels, one for each of the three exposed sides.

For Velcro attached curtains, clients often use a single panel covering the entire project using an outside hang with 2 exits at either end of the curtain panel. That's what other folks do, however, you are free to decide which ever configuration is right for you.

Below is a worksheet that you will be able to print to help you plan your 3 sided application. It is very similar to what our store page looks like. If you are ordering a tracking attachment, be sure to consider there your curtains will swag open when the curtain is not in use. If you are ordering tracking, you will need the width of each exposed side so that you can calculate the tracking items you will need.
