Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds are just another way of saying Horizontal slat Blinds and encompass almost all the products in the market which meet the criteria of a Blind.  We catagorize blinds into 4 basic types, PVC blinds, Composite blinds, Roman Blinds/Shades and wood blinds.

Faux Wood “PVC” Blinds

Faux or PVC blinds are made of a solid or foamed poly vinyl chloride plastic.  PVC blinds have really become popular over the past 15 years.  Slat widths are generally 2″, 2 1/2″, and sometimes 3″. The one main draw back to Faux Blinds is the weight of the slats. PVC slats are heavier than wood or composite slats.  So large windows can be a little difficult to raise.

Composite Blinds

Composite blinds are priced in the low mid range. Composite blinds slats are lighter than PVC blinds but heavier than wood and therefore a good choice for large windows coverings.

Wood Blinds

Both value & premium wood blinds are made from real woods. The value wood blind slats are made from assorted Oriental hardwoods. The premium wood blind slats are made from American Basswood. The blind slat’s surface is either painted or stained. Wood blinds are your best bet.

Wood Blind- Synonyms

Here a brief list of some of the trade names blind companies give to blinds made with wood slats. We carry Timber view Value Wood Blinds, Timber View Premium Wood Blinds, Royal Wood, Royal Budget Wood and several other Discount Factory Direct Blinds.
