Our gray bunk carpet is called charcoal and it is # CE11372. This is a 12 foot long by 11 inch wide roll of carpet for 1,584 square feet.

Based on a total length of all the boards of 55 feet (660 inches) at 12 inches wide and assuming you are covering the front and at least most of the back of each board you would need about 17,000 square feet in order to have some left over in case you need it.

That would mean you'd need 11 of # CE11372.
