There’s a wide range of advantages to owning faux wood vinyl blinds. Due to the higher price of wood, many homeowners have opted for vinyl blinds with the appearance of wood. Here are some of the fantastic benefits of purchasing faux wood as prepared by the vinyl blind installation experts here at Los Angeles Shades and Blinds.
Affordability Over Wood
Faux wood is much cheaper than real wood blinds, meaning that homeowners can decorate a much higher amount of windows for the same price as decorating just a few windows with real wood blinds – all with the same appearance and luxurious finish.
Moisture Resistance
Wooden blinds absorb moisture, causing them to easily warp, expand, and swell. Protective finishes easily wear off wood leaving them vulnerable to heat and sunlight. Faux wood blinds are much more resistant to heat and moisture.
Cleaning Simplicity
It’s super easy to clean faux wood blinds as compared to real wood blinds. Simply wipe faux wood blinds clean with a wet cloth and you’re good – faux wood blinds are completely water resistant.
Durability
Faux wood blinds last much longer than real wood blinds – generally they last for a large number of years, and can easily be refinished on request.
Color Variety
Faux wood blinds come in a huge range of sizes and amazingly bright colors. Custom colored blinds can be made directly for your particular aesthetic tastes, allowing you a great amount of range in your decorating options.
Environmentally Green
Faux wood blinds are more environmentally friendly than real wood, as purchasing real wood blinds contributes to deforestation. You can choose to purchase vinyl faux wood blinds made of recycled materials for an even more environmentally conscious decision – these blinds are fully recyclable, which helps you reduce how much garbage is in landfills.
