How our wooden blinds are built
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.

Glare on screens was killing productivity. We picked a dim-out fabric with a cassette headrail so the blind closes flush against the reveal — no light spill at the edges.
Tall-window wooden blinds on a Charing townhouse
Three-metre drops on the staircase needed split panels with a mid-rail so the lower section opens for cleaning without dropping the whole blind.
