Curtain Prices in Singapore (2026): A Complete Cost Guide by Type, Fabric & Room Size
Jul
Planning curtains this year? Most Singapore homeowners wonder: how much do they cost? The answer depends on your window size, fabric choice, and curtain type. This 2026 guide breaks down typical prices by type, fabric grade, and room size, plus tips to save while keeping quality.
How Much Do Curtains Cost in Singapore?
As a benchmark, most Singapore homeowners spend $250 to $1,500 per window for custom curtains, including fabric, tailoring, track, and installation. Smaller HDB bedroom windows can come in under $400, while large condominium full-height windows or sliding doors often run from $700 upwards. Motorised and designer-fabric curtains sit at the higher end.
These are estimates, not fixed prices. The only way to get an accurate number is a measured quotation, since pricing depends on your window width, fabric choice, and finishing details. The sections below explain each factor.
What Affects the Price of Curtains in Singapore?
Curtain pricing is not based on a single flat rate. Several variables stack together to form your final quote. This helps you understand your costs and where you can adjust.
Curtain Type and Header Style
The header style, the part that attaches the curtain to the track, has a real impact on both the look and the price. Simple eyelet and pencil-pleat headers use less fabric and labour, so they are more affordable. Premium styles such as S-fold (wave) curtains use a higher fullness ratio and more careful tailoring, which raises the cost but delivers that clean, evenly folded drape many homeowners want.
Fabric Grade and Material
Fabric is usually the highest cost. Economy polyester costs far less than premium linen, jacquard, or velvet. Heavier and imported fabrics not only cost more per metre, but they also require more careful handling during tailoring. We break down the grades in the fabric table below.
Window Size and Fullness Ratio
Curtains are priced largely by width, because a wider window needs more fabric. On top of that, curtains are gathered for a fuller look, so the fabric used is typically 1.8 to 2.5 times the actual window width. A full-height window or a wide balcony sliding door, therefore, uses considerably more fabric than a standard bedroom window.
Lining and Add-ons
Lining changes both performance and price. A simple, unlined day curtain is the cheapest option, while a dim-out or three-pass blackout lining adds material and cost. Thermal and acoustic linings sit higher still. Other add-ons such as motorisation, tie-backs and decorative trims also lift the total.
Track, Rod and Motorisation
The hardware matters too. A standard ceiling or wall track is inexpensive, but heavy-duty, curved or recessed tracks cost more. If you want the convenience of remote or app control, motorised curtains add roughly $400 to $1,200 per track, depending on the motor brand and whether it is wired, battery or rechargeable.
Measurement and Installation
Professional site measurement and installation ensure your curtains hang correctly with full window coverage. At Re Design Deco, this is built into our service rather than treated as a surprise add-on, and we offer free on-site measurement so your quotation reflects your real windows, not a rough estimate.
Curtain Price by Type (2026 Price Guide)
The table below shows typical price ranges by curtain type. The per-foot figure covers the supply and tailoring of the fabric panel; the per-window estimate assumes a standard window of around 2 to 2.4 metres wide with mid-range fabric.
| Curtain Type | Typical Price (per ft width, supply + tailor) | Estimated Cost per Standard Window |
| Day / sheer curtains | $20 – $45 | $180 – $450 |
| Night / dim-out curtains | $25 – $55 | $220 – $550 |
| Blackout curtains | $35 – $80 | $300 – $800 |
| Eyelet curtains | $25 – $55 | $220 – $550 |
| Pinch/pencil pleat curtains | $35 – $75 | $320 – $750 |
| S-fold (wave) curtains | $45 – $110 | $400 – $1,100 |
| Motorised curtains | Add $400 – $1,200 per track | Fabric cost + motor + track |
Many homeowners choose a day-and-night double track, pairing a sheer day curtain with a blackout or dim-out night curtain on the same window. This combination costs more than a single layer but offers the most flexible light control.
Curtain Price by Fabric Grade
Because fabric is the largest cost driver, it helps to think in terms of grades. The table below groups common Singapore curtain fabrics into price bands per metre of fabric.
| Fabric Grade | Common Materials | Price Band (per metre of fabric) |
| Economy | Basic polyester, light voile | $8 – $18 |
| Mid-range | Polyester blends, dim-out, textured weaves | $18 – $40 |
| Premium | Linen, jacquard, blackout, cotton blends | $40 – $80 |
| Luxury | Velvet, imported designer, silk-look | $80 – $160 |
Spending a little more on fabric grade often pays off in how the curtains drape, wear and look over the years. If you are unsure which grade suits your space and budget, our consultants can recommend the right fabric during a free custom-made curtain consultation.
Curtain Price by Room Size
Finally, it helps to budget for the space you are furnishing. The estimates below assume mid-range fabric with a standard lining; designer fabrics or motorisation will push the figures higher.
| Space | Typical Track / Window Width | Estimated Curtain Cost |
| HDB bedroom | 1.8 – 2.4 m | $250 – $600 |
| HDB living room (single window) | 2.4 – 3.0 m | $350 – $800 |
| Condo full-height window | 3.0 – 4.5 m | $600 – $1,500 |
| Sliding door/balcony | 3.0 – 5.0 m | $700 – $1,800 |
| Landed living/feature window | 4.5 m and above | $1,200 – $3,000+ |
For an entire home, most HDB owners budget roughly $1,500 to $3,500 to curtain every room, while condominium and landed homes typically spend more, given larger windows. Businesses curtaining multiple units or a full project should speak to us as a curtain supplier in Singapore, where contract and volume pricing applies.
How to Get an Accurate Curtain Quote
Price tables are a helpful starting point, but your actual cost depends on your specific windows and choices. The most reliable way to budget is to arrange a free on-site measurement. Our team measures every window, walks you through fabric samples, and prepares an itemised quotation with no hidden charges. You can explore our full range of interior furnishing services or simply request a measurement to get started.
Ways to Save on Curtains Without Compromising Quality
- Choose a smart fabric grade. A good mid-range fabric often looks and performs almost as well as premium options at a noticeably lower price.
- Prioritise the rooms that matter. Invest in quality blackout curtains for bedrooms, and keep simpler day curtains for less-used spaces.
- Use a single well-chosen layer. Not every window needs a full day-and-night double track; pick the layer that solves your actual problem.
- Measure once, properly. Accurate professional measurement avoids costly fabric wastage and re-dos.
- Bundle your order. Curtaining several rooms at once is usually more cost-effective than doing them piecemeal.
