Curtain & Sheer Pricing
Prices and What Is Included
Start with the two fabric ranges below, then confirm the required quantity and hardware. Main curtains and sheers are separate layers, each with fabric, stitching and installation included.
| Treatment | Price per metre |
|---|---|
| Curtains | KSh 1,800–2,500Fabric, stitching and installation included |
| Sheers | KSh 1,100–1,800Fabric, stitching and installation included |
The price within each range depends on your chosen fabric. Curtains and sheers are priced separately. Rods and tracks are quoted separately.
The total depends on the approved quantity for each layer, not simply the number of windows. Share your location, approximate window sizes and photos so we can confirm the fabric, quantities and hardware in an itemised quotation.

Choose the Right Window Treatment
Curtains cost KSh 1,800–2,500 per metre and sheers KSh 1,100–1,800 per metre. Both include fabric, stitching and installation. Rods and tracks are quoted separately.
Sheers and Linings
Layering adds material and fabrication but provides more flexible privacy and light control.
Tailoring and Heading
Wave, pleat, eyelet and specialist finishes require different labour and compatible hardware.
Rods, Tracks and Fitting
Hardware, brackets, runners, site conditions and installation scope affect the final quotation.

What a Useful Curtain Quote Should Show
A clear quotation should state the fabric and unit, required quantity, heading, lining, hardware, tailoring, fitting, transport, taxes where applicable, minimum order and exclusions. The curtain and sheer ranges include fabric, stitching and installation; rods and tracks are quoted separately.
Measurements, fabric or material, heading, hardware and installation should be confirmed together before the order is finalised.

Samar Interiors confirmed these ranges on 5 October 2026. Curtains are KSh 1,800–2,500 per metre and sheers are KSh 1,100–1,800 per metre, depending on fabric. Both include fabric, stitching and installation. The two layers are priced separately, and rods and tracks are quoted separately. Use the quotation to confirm quantities and the complete scope before ordering.
| Item | Pricing treatment | Confirm in the quotation |
|---|---|---|
| Main curtains | KSh 1,800–2,500 per metre; fabric, stitching and installation included | Chosen fabric, chargeable metres, finished dimensions and heading |
| Sheers | KSh 1,100–1,800 per metre; fabric, stitching and installation included | Chosen sheer, quantity and fullness; priced separately from the main curtains |
| Rods and tracks | Quoted separately | System, length, number of layers, brackets, runners and accessories |
| Additional requirements | Confirm any separately agreed items before ordering | Extra lining, measurement visit arrangements, transport or unusual site requirements |
Why window width is not the final quantity
Do not multiply the window width by a rate and assume that is the finished total. Curtains need fullness to form folds. Fabric roll width, finished drop, hems and pattern matching also affect the quantity. The curtain and sheer layers may need different amounts. Ask Samar to confirm the chargeable metres for each layer before the order is finalised.
How to compare two quotations
Put both quotes into the same checklist: finished dimensions, fullness, heading, exact fabric, lining, number of panels, hardware, accessories, installation, transport, lead time and exclusions. A lower total can simply omit lining, use less fullness or exclude hardware and fitting. Compare like with like before choosing.
Information needed for a reliable estimate
- Town or neighbourhood and whether the property is occupied.
- Number of openings and approximate rod or track width for each.
- Finished drop, room type and main privacy or light requirement.
- Preferred curtain, sheer, blind, rod or track arrangement.
- Photos showing the full wall, ceiling and nearby furniture.
- Whether existing hardware must be removed or reused.
Included in both ranges: fabric, stitching and installation. Curtains and sheers are priced separately. Rods and tracks are quoted separately.

How to Use This Guide Before You Order
Use the price ranges to plan your budget, then confirm the final dimensions, fabric and hardware for each opening. Small differences in width, drop, heading or fabric construction can change the required quantity and finished appearance.
Finished Size and Coverage
We measure the intended treatment position, not only the glass. Width, drop, overlap, stack-back space, floor clearance and nearby handles or furniture all affect the finished size.
Price per metre explained
A clear quotation should state the fabric and unit, required quantity, heading, lining, hardware, tailoring, fitting, transport, taxes where applicable, minimum order and exclusions. The curtain and sheer ranges include fabric, stitching and installation; rods and tracks are quoted separately. The selection is checked against daylight, privacy, cleaning and how often the treatment will be opened.
Material, Heading and Hardware
Fabric weight, lining, fullness and heading must work with the rod or track. Confirming them together helps the treatment hang evenly, move freely and remain supported across the full span.
Clear Scope and Quotation
The quotation should identify the selected curtain and sheer fabrics, quantities, headings and any lining. Fabric, stitching and installation are included in the stated curtain and sheer ranges. Rods and tracks are quoted separately; any other agreed items should be clearly identified before approval.
Decision Guide
Plan the Details That Change the Result
A strong choice should work when it is open, closed and used every day—not only when viewed as a fabric sample.
Start With the Main Requirement
Start with your budget, privacy needs and preferred fabric. Then compare the required metres for each layer and the separate hardware cost, rather than choosing from the lowest per-metre figure alone.
Check the Treatment in Both Positions
Consider the window when the treatment is closed and where the fabric, panels or blind will sit when open. Stack-back, projections, centre joins and side coverage affect views, daylight and access to handles.
Plan for Daily Operation
Think about who will use the treatment, how often it moves and how it will be cleaned. High or wide openings, heavy lined curtains and busy work areas may need different controls or hardware from a lightly used room.
Before Approval
Review the Complete Window Schedule
List every opening separately, even when several windows look similar. Record the location, finished width, drop, treatment type, material or fabric, colour, heading, lining, rod or track and installation notes. Repeated sizes can then be grouped, while unusual corners, doors or high windows remain visible in the scope.
Review samples in the room where possible because daylight, wall colour and artificial light can change how a material appears. Confirm which party supplies each item, whether old hardware must be removed, what surface preparation is included and how the finished treatment will be checked at handover. The approved schedule should agree with the quotation before fabrication begins.
04 · How It Works
Measured, Planned and Fitted
A clear process from the first enquiry to the finished installation.
01
Measure the Finished Width
Use the intended rod or track width rather than only the glass.
02
Apply the Fullness
Multiply by the selected fullness for the curtain and sheer layers.
03
Account for Drop and Fabric Width
Calculate panel widths, seams, hems and pattern matching.
04
Confirm Hardware and the Final Total
Fabric, stitching and installation are included in both fabric ranges. Confirm rods, tracks and any other separately agreed items in the quotation.

Nairobi & Kenya
Site Details Matter
For Nairobi projects, a site visit can confirm dimensions, fixing surfaces, access and installation conditions. Projects elsewhere in Kenya can be discussed according to location and scope. Share the town or neighbourhood, number of windows, room type, approximate measurements and clear photos when requesting a quotation.
Photos help identify likely options, but final production dimensions should come from the agreed measurement method. Where access, ceiling height, removal of existing hardware or surface preparation affects fitting, those items should appear in the scope before work starts.
