Tablecloth Size & Fit Calculator
Measure the tabletop after installing any extensions. Enter length and width, a square side, or the diameter of a round top. Choose your own overhang or use the actual table height for a floor target.
Measure and calculate
- Enter a desired drop to find finished cloth dimensions. The calculator adds that drop twice: once for each opposite edge.
- Enter up to three finished cloth sizes to compare their actual coverage. A 90° rotation is shown separately and applied only when selected.
- If checking distance to the floor, measure vertically from the floor to the top surface. Clearance is calculated at the midpoint of each edge.
What you can check
- Finds a finished cloth size for rectangular, square and round tables.
- Separates full tabletop coverage from meeting a chosen overhang.
- Shows dimensional shortage and uncovered distance per centered edge.
- Compares entered and rotated positions without reordering your measurements.
Useful situations
- Choose a cloth for a measured dining table rather than relying on seating count.
- Check a listed cloth size before buying or renting it.
- Compare whether a cloth already owned can cover a table.
Understand the fit
A 180 × 90 cm tabletop with a 25 cm drop needs a 230 × 140 cm finished cloth. For a 72 × 30 inch tabletop and 15 inch drop, the result is 102 × 60 inches.
For a round table, enter its diameter, not its radius. A 60 inch diameter with 15 inch drop needs a 90 inch diameter cloth.
A 240 × 140 cm cloth centered on a 180 × 90 cm table hangs 30 cm at each end and 25 cm at each side. Equal area does not prove fit: both dimensions must cover the table.
Floor length uses your measured height minus your chosen floor clearance. On a 75 cm high table, 5 cm clearance gives a 70 cm drop. Rectangular corners can hang below their side midpoints.
A six-foot table length or seating count cannot establish cloth size without its width and a desired drop. Package sizes, wash shrinkage and manufacturing variation may differ from finished measurements.
