Wooden Blinds: A Capel-le-Ferne Guide & Free Home Visit

Drive five minutes through Capel-le-Ferne and you'll see why wooden blinds matter here: Cliff-top bungalows, mid-century chalets, larger detached homes on the Old Dover Road and windows that have settled over decades.

What sets these wooden blinds apart

Wooden blinds add warmth that no other blind type can match. Real-timber slats catch and soften the light, and the grain in stained finishes brings character to plain modern rooms and to traditional sash windows alike.

We use FSC-sourced basswood for its strength-to-weight ratio. That keeps the blinds light enough to operate smoothly even on wide windows, and stops the slats bowing over time.

Total dark-out was the priority. We fitted solid panels and a cassette headrail to kill the dawn light leak.

Three-metre patio sliders needed a panel-glide system on a quad-track so all four panels stack neatly to one end when the doors are open.

Grease and steam ruled out fabric in this run — we went with 50mm faux-wood Venetians and a wipe-clean finish that's still looking new four years on.
