Faux Wood Blinds in Harborne
£2993 faux wood blinds fitted
Each blind up to 1 metre wide × 1 metre drop.
Broad slats lend a window a sense of permanence. Faux wood achieves the look of painted or stained timber while remaining unaffected by humidity, which makes it the more reliable choice for Harborne kitchens, bathrooms and garden rooms that face full sun. It also holds a crisp line across a large bay.
Faux Wood Blinds in Harborne homes
The black-slatted window pictured on this page is a good illustration of how slats can frame a seat or a view. In B17 villas we often fit faux wood in bays, measuring each face separately so the headrails meet cleanly. Bearwood’s Edwardian terraces suit slats hung within the recess, keeping the original architrave visible. Fabric tapes conceal the ladder holes and soften the overall effect.
Three faux wood blinds, fitted, for £299, with a maximum of 1 metre wide × 1 metre drop per blind. Your consultation includes measuring and a review of the finishes included in the price. The offer is not combined with BN-14. For drier rooms where natural grain is preferred, real wood is available, lighter on wide windows, and may be quoted at the same appointment.
Faux wood slats carry more weight than aluminium, so generous windows are sometimes divided into two blinds aligned to read as one. The raised stack occupies a band at the head of the window, which the consultant will indicate. A wand tilt reduces cords, and slats are cleaned with a damp cloth.
Tape colours may be chosen to tone or contrast with the slat. A charcoal tape on a white slat gives a crisp, tailored effect; a matching tape is quieter. Slat widths of 50mm and 63mm suit most Harborne windows.

Enquiries
Should I choose faux or real wood?
Faux wood is preferable in kitchens and bathrooms, as it is unaffected by moisture. Real wood is lighter and suits wide windows in drier rooms.
Do closed slats give complete privacy?
They provide privacy and block most light, though a little will always pass through the ladder holes and edges.
Which slat widths are offered?
Widths of 50mm and 63mm suit most Harborne windows; a broader slat offers a clearer view when open and a bolder line when closed.
