Learn Everything You Need to Know About Wooden Blinds

Can wood be used to make Perfect Fit Blinds?

Perfect Fit blinds are comprised of wood slats that fit exactly inside each window glass, creating an essential part of the window. You’ll be spoiled for choice with the freshest colors, brightest tones, and woodgrain styles available. They do not require drilling because they just clip onto your uPVC window frames.

 

Is it possible to see through wooden blinds?

If the window is on the bottom floor, the blind should be closed slats up. Otherwise, persons on the floors above can see in. However, if you are on an upper floor and the slats are up, anyone on the lower floor may see in. As a result, upper-floor blinds should have their slats closed.

Do wooden blinds completely block out light?

Wooden blinds keep a good amount of light out, but even when closed, they allow some in through the slats.

How do I take measurements for my Wooden Blinds?

An inside-mounted blind should have a minimum recessed gap of 2 3/8′′ in a window. In three places, measure the width of the window from the top of the aperture to the sill. For the blind width, choose the smallest dimension.

Manufacturers typically deduct up to 1/4′′ – 1/2′′, but always double-check this when sending any measurements or select a blind firm that offers a free measuring service since if there is a mistake when it comes to fitting them, they will correct it.

 

What is the distinction between faux and real wood blinds?

The difference between the two is the material used to create them. Wooden blinds are composed of wood and come in a variety of stains and paints to complement your room’s existing design. Faux wood blinds are comprised of a PVC composite. They also come in a range of colors, including paints and faux stains.

What is the distinction between Venetian blinds and wood blinds?

Because of the difference in slat thickness, the stack on wooden Venetian blinds is always greater than that on aluminum. Aluminium Venetians have slats that are less than a millimeter thick, whereas hardwood blinds have slats that are around 2.5mm thick.

Should blinds be installed within or outside a window frame?

Inside-mounted wooden blinds provide the cleanest look, and because they fit inside the window frame, you can place them as deep or shallow as you like. Simply place the brackets outside the window frame and hang your blinds or shades so that they extend past the frame.
