Blinds and Curtains are unique in that they are made to measure products. Unlike regular products, these don’t have a fixed per-unit price. For Blinds, Shutters and Curtains you need a compound price calculator and pricing features such as table lookup based on dimensions like width, height, liner meter price, and other customisable parameters.
When it comes to pricing blinds, the base price is usually calculated based on the fabric price table. Each fabric type usually has its own price table. Also, for products like double roller blinds, you’ll need to add two fabric prices to calculate the based price because you are using two different fabrics. In some cases, you may want to charge more for specific colours, so in that case, the colour would have its own separate price table. A compound price calculator will add all these values to calculate the base price based on the selections made by you customer.
In addition to the base price, you need to charge for options like control type, motor and remote, because these items increase your build cost. These charges are simple, and a small add-on cost is added to the total price.
Curtains, are slightly different to blinds, instead of price lookup based on width and height curtain prices are calculated by the liner meter. So, to calculate the total cost, you simply determine the number of meters required and multiply with the applicable rate. Any additional charges can be added to this total just like blinds.
