What type of Blind should I choose for my home.

 The most frequent question asked by people from Lexington, when choosing blinds for your home is "wood or faux." And the most frequent response you provide is, "I'm not sure." While each has its own set of benefits and drawbacks, being aware of how they differ will help you select the ideal blind for your house.

 

The slat material is the key distinction between the two blinds. One employs PVC slats, while the other uses natural wood slats. This means that the depth and beauty of the wood grain will naturally be present in a stained wood blind. While a "fake wood" PVC blind may attempt to mimic the wood grain, it lacks the warmth of real wood. What makes you choose a faux wood blind, then?

If you prefer a painted look, a faux wood blind is a great option. Because the significance of the wood grain is irrelevant, whether it is wood or painted wood. Simply said, it appears to be a painted blind. You can locate a fake that complements your trim if you're seeking for a particular shade of white or grey. Notably, doing business with a bespoke blind company like Miller’s window work is beneficial in this situation. Box retailers frequently only carry one "white" hue in their imitation wood blinds, but your neighborhood Miller’s window work design expert can show you a variety of shades and help you decide which one is best for your house.

 

Faux is a good option because the slats are moisture-resistant and suitable for use in kitchens, laundry rooms, and bathrooms. They are a great choice for kids' rooms as well due to its accessibility and easy-to-clean surface. Additionally, for child safety, Miller’s window works offer cordless choices.

Why then would you choose a wood blind when a faux wood blind has so many advantages? Faux slats are heavier than wood slats despite being strong and moisture-resistant. This may restrict the blind's breadth, necessitating the use of two blinds on wider windows. In contrast, you can cover huge windows with a single-blind made of lighter wood. Faux blinds can be challenging to lift because of the additional weight.
