Faux Wood Blinds Installation

Faux wood blinds provide the luxurious aesthetic appearance of finely detailed and grained wood, with the benefits of being cheaper, easier to clean, longer-lasting, as well as containing a range of other distinct practical and beauty advantages. In this blog entry, the faux wood blind installation experts here at Los Angeles Shades and Blinds will detail some of the basic things to know about faux wood blinds, as well as some of the distinct benefits that you can gain from having faux wood blinds installed at your L.A. residential or commercial property.

Faux Blind are Available in a Broad Range of Colors

Faux blinds can be purchased in a ton of colors – over 20 of them! You can opt for solid colors like gray, alabaster, or pure white, which have a uniform appearance that doesn’t emphasize the wood grain texture. You can additionally opt for embossed colors like the above colors – but also with options for embossed wood grain in each slat of the blinds, providing them with a realistic 3D wood like texture. Lastly, you can opt for super realistic wood colors like black walnut, mahogany, or lighter driftwood colors.

Faux Wood Blinds are Moisture Resistant

Actual wooden blinds, when exposed to very humid environments, can warp and become bent and misshapen. The unique vinyl material faux wood blinds are made to allow them to stay protected from high levels of moisture without bending. This makes them ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and other rooms with high moisture. They’re an especially great option for these rooms if there’s real wooden blinds in the other rooms, and the homeowner wants a consistent themed appearance.

Faux Wood Blinds are Affordable

Faux wood blinds are an eminently affordable and budget friendly option for both residential and commercial property owners. They’re a fantastic way to receive all the aesthetic benefits of wooden blinds, without any strain to your pockets or budget.

Faux Wood Blinds are Extremely Durable and Long-Lasting

Faux wood blinds are resistant to warping and color fading – even if they are subject to extreme sun (and thus, UV ray) exposure. Real wooden blinds can warp due to moisture, as mentioned above, fade due to sunlight, and are more prone to snapping when extreme force is placed on them. While faux wooden blinds aren’t impervious to ALL damage, they can actually resist against much more force than real-wooden blinds can. They are easy to clean, last for many years, and durable, and thus represent a fantastic investment for people who want to enjoy the beauty and functionality of wooden-appearing blinds for many years to come.
