Product Images

The product images displayed are for illustrative purposes and are intended to give an accurate representation of our wooden Venetian blinds, including real wood blinds and 50mm slat blinds. Please note that factors beyond our control, such as lighting, screen settings, or photography, may slightly affect the perception of colour, texture, or finish. We recommend ordering a complimentary sample of your chosen wooden Venetian blind before purchase to ensure satisfaction with the actual colour, texture, and finish. This helps you make a well-informed decision for your bespoke made to measure wooden blinds.

The Pelmet

Each pelmet is supplied in an “uncut” state at standard box size, giving you the flexibility to customise the dimensions with a standard hacksaw. By default, the pelmet is mitred on one side, and both mitre pieces are included in your package to ensure a seamless and professional finish for your real wood Venetian blind.

Made to Measure Blinds

All made to measure wooden Venetian blinds are manufactured with a tolerance of ±5mm, in addition to any recess deduction. It is essential to provide accurate width and drop measurements when ordering your custom-made wooden blinds, as under standard terms, returns are not available for made-to-measure items. Ensuring precise measurements guarantees a perfect fit for your bespoke window treatment.

The Ends of Your Blind

These wooden blinds are crafted from high-quality standard materials, and the ends may be unfinished or unpainted. This usually presents no issue, particularly for blinds installed within a recess, as the ends remain hidden from view.

Brackets and Controls

Each wooden Venetian blind package comes complete with all essential brackets and fittings, allowing versatile installation. Our universal brackets support face-fix or top-fix mounting to the window, wall, or lintel. Note that side fitting is not recommended for wooden blinds installed within a recess, due to the necessary deduction.

Raise control: Positioned on the right-hand side
Tilt control: Located on the left-hand side for easy operation

These controls and brackets ensure your made to measure real wood blinds are both functional and stylish.

The Drop of Your Blind

The exact drop of your wooden Venetian blind depends on the slat size selected. While we aim to produce blinds exactly to your requested drop, slight variations may occur, and your blind could be marginally longer than the ordered measurement. This ensures the perfect fit and light control for your bespoke 50mm slat wooden blinds.

Faux Wood are manufactured from an extremely durable PVC plastic, which in turn brings benefits of being waterproof and very easy to clean. Real Wood blinds are, as you can probably guess, made from 100% real basswood! Real Wood blinds come in fantastic colours, some oozing with class with their deep grained texture
Wooden blinds, on their own, are not typically considered blackout blinds. Wooden blinds are designed to provide control over light and privacy by adjusting the slats, but they may not completely block out all light. The slats of wooden blinds are usually spaced, allowing some light to filter through.

If you are specifically looking for blackout features, you may want to consider blinds made from materials that are designed for light blocking, such as vinyl or fabric blackout blinds. These types of blinds often have additional features to minimize light leakage and provide better light control, making them more effective for creating a darker room environment.

However, if complete blackout is not a strict requirement for your needs, wooden blinds can still offer a degree of light control and privacy while adding a touch of natural warmth and style to your space.
The controls on wooden blinds allow you to adjust the position of the slats to manage light, privacy, and visibility. The specific controls may vary depending on the type and brand of blinds, but here are some common control mechanisms for wooden blinds:

Cord Tilt Control:

Most wooden blinds have a cord tilt control, which allows you to tilt the slats open or closed. Pulling one side of the cord will tilt the slats in one direction, and pulling the other side will tilt them in the opposite direction.

Lift Cord or Cord Loop:

The lift cord or cord loop is used to raise or lower the blinds. Pulling on the cord raises the blinds, and releasing it allows them to lower. Cord loops are often used for larger blinds and are designed for easier operation.
Wooden blinds, often referred to as wood blinds or wood-look blinds, differ from other types of blinds primarily in the material used for their construction and the aesthetic they offer. Here are some key features that make wooden blinds distinct from other types of blinds:

Natural Aesthetic

Wooden blinds provide a warm and natural aesthetic that is often sought after for its classic and timeless appeal. The texture and grain of real wood or faux wood bring a touch of nature into your living spaces, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Variety of Materials

Wooden blinds are available in both real wood and faux wood options. Real wood blinds are crafted from natural wood, offering an authentic and unique look. Faux wood blinds, on the other hand, are made from materials like PVC or composite wood, providing the appearance of wood with added durability and resistance to moisture.

Lightweight and Durable

Wooden blinds are lightweight yet durable, making them easy to operate while also being robust enough to withstand regular use. Real wood blinds are known for their natural strength, while faux wood blinds offer additional resistance to warping, cracking, and moisture damage.

Versatile Finishes and Colors

Wooden blinds come in a variety of finishes and colors, allowing for customization to match different interior styles and color schemes. This versatility makes them a popular choice for homeowners looking for window treatments that seamlessly integrate with their decor.

Light Control and Insulation

The adjustable slats of wooden blinds provide excellent control over the amount of natural light entering a room. By tilting the slats, you can manage the level of privacy and light, creating a comfortable and functional environment. Additionally, wooden blinds offer some degree of insulation, helping to regulate temperature and energy efficiency in a room.

Timeless Appeal

Wooden blinds have a timeless and classic look that can complement various design styles. Whether you have a traditional, contemporary, or eclectic decor, wooden blinds can enhance the aesthetic appeal of your windows and contribute to the overall beauty of your home.
