What’s the Difference Between Wood Blinds and Traditional Blinds

If you have heard of the trend of wood blinds, you might be wondering what all the fuss is about. Afterall, they’re just like ordinary blinds, right? Not exactly. Beyond the materials, here are the main differences between wood blinds and traditional blinds.

What’s the Difference Between Wood Blinds and Traditional Blinds

  • Lower maintenance: With traditional blinds, you usually have to remove them from the window and take an inconvenient amount of time to wash them before having to reinstall them. Wood blinds aren’t nearly as time consuming because you only need to remember to dust them every once in a while. You don’t even have to worry about detaching or reinstalling them.
  • Versatile and durable: You might have to replace broken blinds every so often, but wood blinds are far more durable and versatile. You can use them in any room of the house without any issues, including in the bathroom, because they are carefully stained and sealed to withstand moisture or any warping from harsh UV rays. This sealing along with the hardy material of the wood tends to make them last longer than traditional blinds.
  • More unique: You can find traditional blinds in any home, but wood blinds are more unique, more stylish, and stand out more in any room. You can even choose the exact dimensions, color, and design you want for your blinds. You don’t always get the same customization with traditional blinds.

These are just a few of the main differences between the two types of blinds, and there are plenty more. You can give us a call if you would like to learn more.
