Full Wall Wallpaper Sizing Guide
Available panel heights:
📏 250cm, 280cm, 310cm, 350cm, 370cm
To calculate how many panels you’ll need:
Divide your total wall width by 64cm.
For example, if your wall is 300cm wide: 300 ÷ 64 = 4.6875 → round up to 5 panels.
Measuring Tips:
-
Measure both the top and bottom width, and use the larger number
-
Measure both left and right height, and use the tallest measurement
-
For adjoining walls, add each wall’s width
-
For pitched ceilings, use the tallest point
-
Always include windows, doors or obstacles in your measurement and trim during install
Application & Prep Info
✨ Prep is key! For long-lasting results, you must apply Vipond’s Self Adhesive Prep Coat before installing wallpaper.
Trim panels carefully using a ruler and Stanley knife, and apply with care for best results.
