What’s the Difference Between Faux Wood & Real Wood?

Our faux wood blinds are a popular choice for those looking for the natural look of wooden blinds, but with added benefits thanks to their PVC slats. They are highly resistant to moisture, making them an ideal choice for bathrooms and kitchens. Real wood blinds on the other hand, are a great choice for an authentic finish full of warmth and are often used for living areas and bedrooms.

Faux wood is also more affordable than real wooden blinds, making them a great option for those on a budget. However, if you’re after a premium finish, then our real wood blinds can’t be beat!

What are the Benefits of Wooden Blinds?

All of our wooden blinds offer a range of benefits from easy operation to light control, and heat retention. Real wood blinds are naturally insulating making them energy-efficient, helping to keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer. On the other hand, our faux wood blinds are durable and moisture resistant perfect for busy households! Fully made to measure, all our wooden blinds can fit even the most unusual windows meaning you can find small, large, and bay window wooden blinds for your home easily.

How do Wooden Blinds Work?

All our wooden blinds can be operated using the supplied control cords. Each blind features cords to control vertical movement up and down and cords to control slat position, offering total ease of use. The cords on the left of your blinds can be used to tilt and open the slats, while the cords on the right can be used to lift the slats up fully.

Do Wooden Blinds Keep Heat In?

Wood is a natural insulator which makes our real wood blinds a great option if you’re looking to block out the winter chill. However, they are not as effective at retaining heat as other window treatments such as thermal curtains, thermal lined roman blinds, or honeycomb cellular blinds. If you’re looking for blinds that keep heat in your home, take a look at our thermal blinds.

How to Clean Greasy Wooden Blinds?

If you have wooden kitchen blinds, there’s a good chance at some point they’ll develop a film from cooking fat or oil. This is more likely to happen if your blinds are particularly close to your cooker or fryer. To clean greasy wooden blinds, you can use a solution of warm water and washing up liquid to break down the grease. Apply the solution with a well wrung out cloth and wipe each slat down gently being careful not to soak the wood.

We usually recommend faux wood blinds for kitchens as they can be wiped down and withstand more moisture making them easier to clean. For more information, see our guide on How to Wash Wooden Blinds.

Are Wooden Blinds Blackout?

While wooden blinds provide adequate shading and privacy when closed, they unfortunately aren’t fully blackout due to their design. Even when the slats are closed and the blind is lowered, small amounts of light will be let in due to the tensioned through-strings. If you’re looking for wooden blackout blinds, you won’t be able to find them as all venetian style blinds will let small amounts of light in. This is why we recommend you pair wooden bedroom blinds with blackout curtains for complete privacy and darkness. For more information see our guide on Are Wooden Blinds Blackout.

If you’d rather, we also offer a range of other blackout blinds including blackout rollers, blackout roman blinds, and more.

Are Venetian Blinds Wooden?
