Measuring Guide

Before ordering your desired PVC or Oilcloth Tablecloth you must firstly know the dimensions of your table. This section will talk you through how to measure both round and square/rectangle table.

All of our PVC Vinyl measures 140cm (55") and our Oilcloth Tablecloth measure approximately 132-134cm in width.

We have a range of Acrylic Fabric that is 139cm and 180cm wide.

Alternatively if you require something larger we regularly make extra-wide tablecloths to order. We do this by sewing two widths together. The cloth is professionally sewn by our in-house seamstress and professionally pattern matched. Please get in touch if you would like a quote for this service or alternatively choose your size from the drop-down size menu on your chosen product.

With all our cloths there is normally a tolerance of+/-0.5 to 1cm when cutting so please bear this in mind. If measured correctly this will only be 0.25cm over both sides. If you are wanting the cloth to sit directly on the top with no overhang please do advise this in the order comments and the exact dimensions you need.

INSTRUCTIONS

Round Table

  1. Measure your table
    Measure across the centre of your round table to get the diameter.

  2. Choose your overhang
    We recommend 30-40cm total (that’s 15–20cm on each side)

  3. Add them together
    Table diameter + overhang = tablecloth size

Example: 90cm table + 30cm overhang = 130cm tablecloth

  1. Pick the nearest size
    Choose the closest available size from the dropdown menu.

Square or Rectangle Table

  1. Measure your table
    Measure the width and length from edge to edge.

  2. Add your overhang
    We recommend 30-40cm total (that’s 15–20cm on each side), but you can choose more or less based on your style and needs.

Tip: Shorter drops are great for everyday use or with young kids. Longer drops add a more formal look.

  1. Choose your size
    Add the overhang to both the width and length, then pick the closest larger size from the dropdown menu.

Example: Table is 100cm x 160cm → Add 30cm (15cm each side) → Order size: 132cm x 190cm

Oval Table

  1. Measure your table
    Measure the width and length at the widest and longest part of your table.

  2. Add your overhang
    We recommend 30-40cm total (that’s 15–20cm on each side), but you can choose more or less based on your style and needs.

Tip: Shorter drops are great for everyday use or with young kids. Longer drops add a more formal look.

  1. Choose your size
    Add the overhang to both the width and length, then pick the closest larger size from the dropdown menu.

Example: Table is 100cm x 160cm → Add 30cm (15cm each side) → Order size: 132cm x 190cm

CUSTOM SIZES

If your calculated tablecloth size is not in the drop down menu, we can create custom sized tablecloths.

How to Order:

  1. Work out your required tablecloth size
    (Table size + overhang — usually 20cm each side)

    Example: Table = 82cm x 156cm → Add 40cm → You need 122cm x 196cm

  2. Choose the next size up from the dropdown menu

    • For Oilcloth: Select 132cm x 200cm

    • For PVC Vinyl: Select 140cm x 200cm

  3. At checkout, enter your required size in the Order Comments box (pictured below)

    e.g., “Please cut to 122cm x 196cm”

✅ We’ll cut your tablecloth to size before dispatch.
❗ If your required size is wider than 132cm (Oilcloth) or 140cm (PVC Vinyl), please check our extra-wide options or contact us for a quote. 

BOXED CORNERS AND BIAS BINDING

Boxed corners are a perfect addition to any wipe clean tablecloth. Perfect for use on Oilcloth, PVC Vinyl and Acrylic tablecloths they come with bias-binding as standard. Whether it is just for aesthetics or practical purposes boxed corners not only look great but help with any issues of a tablecloth moving around. To order, simply choose the design you want and add the boxed corners to your basket. The boxed corners are only for square and rectangle tables.

Step 1: Measure Your Table
Measure the length and width of your table.

Step 2: Add 30cm to Each Measurement
This gives you a 15cm overhang on all sides.

Example: Table size = 92cm x 179cm → Order size = 122cm x 209cm

Step 3: Choose the Closest Size
From the dropdown menu, select the nearest size that meets or exceeds your calculated dimensions.

For 92cm x 209cm, choose 132cm x 210cm (if available).

Step 4: Add to Basket & Proceed to Checkout

Step 5: Enter Your Actual Table Size at Checkout
On the Order Summary page, you’ll see an Order Comments box.
Please enter your table size here (e.g., “Table size: 92cm x 179cm”).

Your cloth will be custom made to fit your table.
Please double-check all measurements before ordering — custom items are non-returnable.

 

ELASTICATED EDGES FOR ROUND TABLES

Elasticated edges are perfect for people that don't want any overhang on their table and don't want any movement on their table. Perhaps this is for outdoor tables or for an indoor round table.

Step 1: Measure Your Table
Measure the diameter of your table as well as the depth (thickness) of the table edge.

Step 2: Calculate the Size to Order
Use this formula:
 Table Diameter + (2 × Table Depth) + 10cm
This ensures a secure fit that wraps neatly under the edge.

Example: Table diameter = 100cm, table depth = 4cm → Order size = 100 + (2 × 4) + 10 = 118cm

Step 3: Choose the Closest Size
From the dropdown menu, select the nearest size that meets or exceeds your calculated measurement.

For Example- For a 118cm Diameter tablcloth select the 120cm Diameter in the dropdown menu.

Step 4: Add to Basket & Proceed to Checkout

Step 5: Enter Your Actual Table Size at Checkout
On the Order Summary page, you’ll see an Order Comments box.
Please enter your actual table measurements here (e.g., “Round table, 100cm diameter, 4cm depth”).

We will custom make your cloth to fit your table.
Please double-check your measurements — custom-made items are non-returnable.
