Common Questions About Venetian Blinds (Wood & Aluminum)
Q:What is the difference between real wood and faux wood Venetian blinds?
Real basswood is 40% lighter and spans wider windows without bowing. Faux wood is crafted from composite PVC, making it completely waterproof and budget-friendly for high-humidity areas.
Q:Can Venetian blinds be raised easily without cords?
Yes, modern cordless tension systems allow you to raise or lower the bottom rail with a light fingertip touch, eliminating all messy dangling cords.
Q:What slat width is best: 1-inch or 2-inch?
2-inch slats are by far the most popular for residential homes, offering better view-through and classic shutter-like proportions.
