25mm Wooden Blind

Choose by the window, not by the price. Natural wood is lighter, has genuine grain and suits a dry living room or bedroom. Faux wood is a moulded composite that ignores humidity completely, so it is the right answer for a kitchen, a bathroom, or any window that takes monsoon splash — the same conditions that will eventually bow a real wooden slat. Faux is heavier, which matters on a very wide window where the total weight adds up.

Yes, more than a flat roller blind does — a slatted blind has many more upward-facing surfaces. The fix is a routine, not a product: tilt the slats closed so they form a flat face, run a duster or a vacuum brush down them, then tilt the other way and repeat. Two minutes a window, once a month. Aluminium and PVC slats also take a damp cloth, which natural wood does not.

Yes. A very small blind costs nearly as much to make as a medium one — the same tube, brackets, chain and labour — so every piece is billed at a minimum area regardless of how small the window is. The calculator on each product page shows you the moment the minimum is applied and by how much, so nothing is hidden inside a total.

Both are valid, and they give different results. An inside (reveal) mount looks tidier and keeps the sill usable, but a little light always escapes at the edges. An outside mount overlaps the frame by two to three inches on each side and is the only way to get a genuinely dark bedroom. Tell us which you want and measure accordingly — our /measure guide walks through both with the exact points to record.
