Lydd Venetian Blinds, Surveyed and Fitted by Our Own Team for Period Properties
From the Georgian terraces to the Victorian homes near Lydd Airport, many period properties present a challenge with their non-square window reveals. Our Venetian blinds, available in aluminium, faux-wood, and real-wood, are cut precisely to fit these unique dimensions. This bespoke approach ensures each slat aligns correctly within the frame, providing effective light control and privacy without highlighting the natural irregularities of an older window opening.
Venetian Blinds for period properties: what we look for
Period properties almost never have square reveals. Two-hundred-year-old sashes, leaded casements and timber casements all settle, twist and wear over time — and a window dressing built to a 'standard' size will always show it.
- Every panel and drop is measured individually — most period reveals are out by 5–15 mm corner to corner.
- Café-style shutters and tier-on-tier configurations protect the original sightline in heritage properties.
- Listed-building consent is rarely required for interior fittings, but we'll provide the technical detail if you need to consult.
- Lead-light and stained-glass windows usually call for face-fix solutions that don't touch the original glazing bars.

About our venetian blinds
Venetians give you the most precise light control of any blind. A small tilt of the wand changes the room from full bright to softly diffused without ever fully closing the blind, which makes them a long-time favourite for kitchens, studies and home offices.
Faux-wood Venetians are our most popular range — they handle steam and humidity far better than real timber, and look almost identical once fitted. For living rooms and bedrooms we more often suggest 50mm real-wood slats for the warmer, more natural finish.
