Wallpaper roll planner

Calculate wallpaper rolls from wall size, roll dimensions and the way the pattern repeats.

Your input

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

A 4 × 2.5 m wall, 0.53 × 10.05 m rolls, 0.1 m trim and 0.64 m repeat needs eight 3.2 m drops and three rolls.

Method

Start with wall height plus trimming allowance. For straight matching, increase that length to a whole pattern repeat. Calculate the whole drops needed across the wall and the whole drops available from each roll, then round up to complete rolls.

Limits

Supports no-match and straight-match wallpaper. Half-drop patterns and sharing offcuts between walls are not included. Doors and windows are not subtracted as area because they may not save a full strip.
