Where Can You Fit Wooden Blinds?

Where Can You Fit Wooden Blinds?

Wooden blinds are a fantastic addition to any interior design theme. Whether your space is modern or traditional, these blinds will help boost the elegance of your home.

Moreover, they offer great privacy benefits. To enjoy full privacy with almost any other window furnishing you have to block out all the light. With wooden Venetian blinds however, you can simply angle the slats to keep prying eyes out of your home while still allowing light to filter from outside.

This privacy makes natural wooden blinds the perfect addition to any bedroom or living room. However, for bathroom or kitchen windows we recommend you choose from our range of faux wooden blinds to avoid warping and cracking from high moisture levels in these areas. These elegant blinds retain much of the beauty of natural wood alternatives, while providing you with greater flexibility.

How To Measure For Wooden Blinds

How To Measure For Wooden Blinds

When it comes to ordering your wooden Venetian blind, you'll be given two options for the fitting type - recess and exact. These refer to where your made-to-measure blind will fit in relation to the window.

Inside Recess (RECESS SIZE) - You will need this measurement if your new blind is to fit inside the window recess. Measure the width and drop from three different positions ensuring you provide the smallest measurement. We will then make the necessary deductions to ensure the blind fits neatly within the recess of your window.

Outside Recess (EXACT SIZE) - An exact size blind is the measurement you need to take if the blind will hang outside the recess, overlapping the window. Select how much to overlap the recess at each side, we recommend at least 7.5cm per side, as well as the top and bottom. As with the recess measurement, measure the width and the drop in three different positions ensuring you provide us with the smallest measurement. If you're concerned about measuring your blinds, you can benefit from our Surefit guarantee, for complete peace of mind.

Grey wooden Venetian blinds - Shades of grey which are more eye catching than white, are also popular. Grey works beautifully with many other increasingly popular colours including soft green tones and even rich aubergine purples - they should certainly be a contender when you consider your options! Find out about colours to go with grey.

Natural coloured wooden Venetian blinds - These are popular choices too. At Blinds Direct we offer different shades of oak and walnut which partner well with multiple decor styles from Scandi to Nordic, Traditional and Cottagecore.

Statement wooden Venetian blinds - Dark wooden Venetian blinds will be sure to make a powerful statement in your home, particularly in black or carbon.

Which Is Better Faux Wood Or Wood Blinds?

Which Is Better Faux Wood Or Wood Blinds?

Faux wooden blinds have the edge however in wetter environments. Where natural wood can warp and crack when wet, faux wooden blinds will not. If you simply must have a wooden blind in your bathroom, faux wood is the best choice for you.

What Is The Difference Between Faux Wood & Wood Blinds?

What Is The Difference Between Faux Wood & Wood Blinds?

Natural wooden Venetian blinds are stained or painted to provide a great range of options for style-conscious decorators.
