Wooden Blinds

Add Instant Style and Elegance

Wooden blinds have a timeless appeal, and create a warm, light atmosphere in any room where they’re fitted. Their organic nature is perfect for both modern, contemporary spaces and those with a more traditional feel, and are equally gorgeous when illuminated by modern lamps or a roaring fireplace. Wooden Blinds have a classic appeal that fits with almost any décor scheme!

It’s not all style and no substance with wooden blinds though – quite the opposite, they’re both good-looking and incredibly practical! Wooden blinds allow for the desired amount of light to enter a room while providing ample privacy and security, and are perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, dining rooms and lounges as they are waterproof and easy to clean. They are also ideal for use in allergenic situations as they are hypo-allergenic themselves and don’t retain any allergens on their smooth wipe-clean surfaces. If you’d prefer a modern material to go with the classic look, faux wooden slats add real character to your window while remaining strong against even the most challenging of environments – ask your fitter about it or give us a call today to discuss your options!

Available in Four Different Slat Sizes

Our custom-made wooden blinds are available in four slat sizes; 25, 35, 50 and 63mm. We have a fantastic selection of colours and finishes available too, so you can match your wooden blinds to the colour scheme of your house or keep a tonal aesthetic going throughout a room. In addition to the traditional wood colours, we have stunning black, white and ivory, and some of the colours are available in a contemporary gloss finish.

We can also supply these blinds with tapes which complement the colour of the wood, which gives you the option of matching the structural elements of your blinds up with your colour scheme. Our 63mm ‘shutter-style’ slats are the latest addition to the range and are proving to be extremely popular, since they give the appearance of plantation shutters. As a result, they will transform any room, but they’re only a fraction of the price of real shutters!

Wood-Weave Blinds

We are delighted to also be able to offer our customers wood-weave blinds, made from flexible sheets of woven wood, masterfully threaded together to provide a stylish, adaptable finish. These operate in a similar style to roman blinds, and fold neatly as they are raised up and down. We only use the best materials to ensure that our blinds are hard wearing and durable whilst not compromising on the timeless elegance and style of a wooden blind.

Why Choose Wooden Blinds?

Wooden blinds are a timeless addition to any home, and are suitable for use in rooms where other blinds types may be more of a challenge, like bathrooms and kitchens. This is thanks to their hard-wearing, waterproof and wipe-clean materials, which makes cleaning your wooden blinds a breeze!

When closed, they are completely opaque, and so are an excellent choice for rooms where privacy is required or where light control is paramount, and are also able to pivot to exactly the degree you’d like in order to control light entering the room or allow a breeze to roll in without letting in too much sunlight.

Wooden blinds can also be made in a variety of colours and stain finishes, so whether you’re looking for a dark and warm blinds solution or something more light and airy, we can provide exactly what you need.

If you choose Expression Blinds to install your wooden blinds, they’ll also be made to measure, to make sure they fit perfectly on every window or door you choose. We always begin by sending one of our expert fitters to take measurements and talk through all your options with you, so you’ll be able to make the best possible decision for your wooden blinds.

All wooden blinds are sturdier than other blinds types, but at Expression Blinds, everything we build is made to last. When you choose to have wooden blinds installed, you can rest assured that you’ll be able to rely on them for years!

Wooden Blinds FAQs

Do Wooden Blinds Block Out Light?

Wooden slat blinds are great when it comes to blocking out light – the material they’re made out of is naturally opaque and thick enough to prevent any light from leaking through, automatically making wooden blinds the equivalent of blackout blinds when it comes to stopping light getting through into the room!

However, if you want the look of wooden blinds while still enjoying sunlight filtering through your blinds, then our wooden weave blinds will be perfect for you – they’re made from a sheet of interwoven wooden strips, allowing some light to percolate through into the room even when down.

What Are The Best Wooden Blinds?

Wooden blinds come in two main forms – wooden weave blinds and wooden venetian blinds. Which one is best depends on what you’re looking for, since they’re both great at keeping out light and made from a stylish, easy-to-maintain material that will never go out of fashion.

You may be looking for something more like a traditional Roman Blind, with a sheet of flexible material woven from wood, then a wooden weave blind is perfect for you. If you’d rather more precise control over the light entering the room, or you’re looking for that lovely, traditional wooden-slat aesthetic, then wooden venetian blinds will be exactly what you’re after.

Your fitter will talk to you about all of your options during your free consultation, and they’ll ensure you find the blinds type that meets your needs perfectly!

How Much Do Wooden Blinds Cost?

At Expression Blinds, we pride ourselves on making excellent, custom blinds to fit wherever you need them at an affordable price. Since every project is a custom build, your fitter will be able to give you a quote at your free consultation, but for more information you can always call us on 0161 241 9686 or get in touch via this website using the Contact Us page!

Are Wooden Blinds Easy To Clean?

One of the many great things about wooden blinds is how easy they are to maintain. The slats themselves can be wiped clean or polished with an appropriate wood-furniture polish to keep them looking fantastic, and the sturdy, long-lasting construction helps make sure that they’ll stay in great working order for years to come.

Can I Get Different-Coloured Wooden Blinds?

You can! We offer a wide variety of colours and wood finishes on our blinds – just let us know what you’re thinking or talk to your fitter for more information. If you’ve got a question that you’d love to know the answer to, just give us a ring, too – we’d love to help you out!

What Are Wood-Weave Blinds?

Woodweave blinds, also known as woven wood blinds, are a wooden blinds type that resembles Roman Blinds, made from a sheet of woven wooden material instead of solid wooden slats. This wooden blinds material is as tough and long-lasting as our wooden blinds, with the same beautiful wood aesthetic, but it allows some light to filter through it, so it’s a great choice for creating an atmospheric, sunny natural lighting scheme in a living area while still providing great privacy.

How Do Wood Weave Blinds Work?

Thin, flexible strips of wood are woven together into a thin sheet, which is then used like the fabric sheet in a set of Roman Blinds. Because of the way the thin wooden strips are woven together, the sheet is flexible and can fold up and down without a problem, and the weave itself provides a beautiful pattern on the sheet.
