Opinion of a specialist

If you want to visually increase the window opening, select the cornice, the length of which exceeds the width of the window so that the porters hanging on it closed part of the wall. Invoice, if the window is too large, you need a model corresponding to the width of the window. When choosing a cornice, it is calculated by its length, the number of rods, the distance from the wall. For example, if the width of the window opening is 160cm, it is recommended to take a bar with a length of 190cm to consolidate the cornice holders along the edges of the window with a small indentation from it (7cm). Curtain will completely close the window opening. The distance from the wall is determined depending on how much the windowsill or heating radiator appears so that the curtain does not lie on them, but completely hid. The cornice with a diameter of 16mm is intended only for light curtains. For curtains of medium severity, a cornice is suitable with a diameter of 19-20mm, and the eaves with a diameter of 25-35mm will withstand the "weighty" curtains.
