Blinds

Timber blinds for warm natural texture.

A classic blind style for filtered light, privacy and natural warmth.

Practical guide

Timber blinds for warm texture and precise light control.

Timber blinds, often specified as timber or timber-look Venetians, use horizontal slats that tilt for light and privacy. They bring warmer texture than aluminium blinds and suit rooms where you want adjustable daylight without a full fabric treatment.

How do timber blinds control privacy?

The slats tilt through the day. You can angle them to bounce light upward, screen the room from outside or close them further for stronger privacy at night.

  • Tilt open for daylight while reducing direct glare.
  • Tilt closed for privacy on street-facing windows.
  • Raise the blind fully when you want the glass clear.
  • Slat width affects the view line and the overall look.

Material choice

Should you choose timber or timber-look?

Natural timber gives warmth and character, and holds up well in living areas, bedrooms and studies. For kitchens, bathrooms and laundries, our water-resistant PVC blinds are the more practical timber-look choice. The right pick depends on room conditions and the finish you want.

  • Natural timber suits living areas, bedrooms and studies.
  • For wet or humid rooms, PVC blinds are the dedicated moisture-tolerant option.
  • Colour and grain should be checked against flooring, trims and cabinetry.
  • Weight matters on larger windows, so measuring confirms suitability.

Fit details

What makes timber blinds look properly finished?

A good timber blind fit comes down to the reveal, headrail, slat stack and control side. The measure confirms whether the blind should sit inside the frame or face-fit for better coverage.

  • Recess fit gives a built-in look where frame depth allows.
  • Face fit can improve coverage on shallow or uneven openings.
  • Controls are placed for daily reach and child-safety requirements.
  • Installation checks tilt, lift and bottom rail alignment.

FAQ

Common questions.

Are timber blinds good for privacy?

Yes. Tilting the slats gives flexible privacy during the day and stronger screening at night, though small light lines are normal between slats.

Are timber blinds suitable for wet areas?

Natural timber is not the best choice for humid or wet rooms. For kitchens, bathrooms and laundries we generally recommend our water-resistant PVC blinds instead.

Do timber blinds block heat?

They can help manage light and radiant heat inside the room, especially when closed during bright sun, but external shading blocks heat before it reaches the glass.

Can timber blinds be made for large windows?

Often, but size and weight need to be checked. Larger openings may need multiple blinds for easier lifting and better long-term operation.

Should timber blinds sit inside the reveal?

Recess fit looks neat when there is enough depth. Face fit may be better for shallow frames, uneven openings or stronger coverage.
