See why custom faux wood blinds could be right for you
Faux wood blinds have become one of the most popular types of window treatments thanks to their adjustable light and privacy control and classic styles. They also have these great benefits compared to real wood blinds or other types of window treatments:
- Faux wood blinds are typically made from unique PVC materials—a durable polymer that can withstand humidity. You can confidently use faux woods in kitchens and bathrooms without worrying about water and moisture damaging them.
- This also means that faux wood blinds are easy to clean and maintain; simply wipe your window treatments with soapy water, and dust whenever needed. You can also put our durable faux wood blinds in high-traffic areas since they are more resistant to stains, scratches, and minor damage than other types of window treatments.
- Faux wood blinds are cost-effective, helping to keep your design budget low without compromising window treatment style or functionality. The faux wood blinds cost from Blindster is budget-friendly, allowing you to achieve a stylish look without sacrificing quality.
- You can easily rotate the blind slats open and closed for flexible privacy and light control, or raise the blinds fully with our easy-to-use cordless faux wood blinds.
- Today’s so-called fake wood blinds are almost impossible to distinguish from real wood, so you can put them in any room in the house. Many options are available to achieve a similar appearance, including embossed slats that provide a more realistic wood grain appearance.
Choosing the best faux wood blinds is easy at Blindster. We have window covering options to fit every budget and every style. Here’s what to consider and how to start shopping:
- Start with slat size – we offer traditional 2 inch faux wood blinds. Or choose 2 1/2 inch faux wood blind slats for better view-through (perfect for larger windows).
- Our Deluxe Faux Wood collection features the tightest slat closure on the market. Or choose our budget-friendly Super Value Faux Wood, or top of the line Premium Faux Woods.
- Our custom faux wood selections all come with cordless lift for a clean look, easy operation, and child safety.
Wood blinds are attractive and durable but can be affected by temperature changes. This type of window treatment can fade, peel, and discolor over time when exposed to sunlight and heat. They are also not suitable for rooms with high humidity.
In contrast, faux wood blinds have a similar appearance, but they are not just an exact replica. These window treatments are moisture resistant and withstand fading and peeling when exposed to sunlight. UV inhibitors in the slats protect against color changes. The polymer slats are also moisture resistant, which keeps your faux wood blinds looking great even in humid conditions.
Wood blinds are actually the better choice for windows where direct sunlight creates an excessive amount of heat on the interior side of the window, since excessive or extreme heat can adversely affect faux wood slats.
