Some rolls are available in 4m and others in 20m. All rolls are 67.cm wide
The short rolls are ideal for a splash back and the 20m rolls for larger walls
Measure the height x length of your wall (e.g. 2.4m x 1.7m)Divide the height by 0.675m (e.g. 2.4m / 0.675m = 3.56 strips

Most of our window film rolls are 1.5m long and 45cm, 67.5cm or 90cm wide.
If one roll isn't enough to cover the entire window, the film can in most cases be butt joined with a second roll. Please note that for most of our film the entire window doesn't need to be covered. It can also be nice to build up panels leaving a small gap between.
