Wood & Faux Wood Blinds In Belton
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds in Belton, MO
Wood blinds and faux wood blinds are the most affordable way to cover every window in a Belton home. Old aluminum blinds, bent in the middle, still hang in plenty of Belton kitchens, and our Solar Shield Blinds Wood & Faux Wood Blinds replace them with slats that tilt for privacy and still show you the yard.
Where It Fits In Belton
Where wood blinds and faux wood blinds fit in Belton
For a Belton family that wants the whole house done at a fair price, blinds make sense, and our cordless options make them safe in kids' rooms.
- Kitchens and bathroomsFaux wood holds up to the steam from a shower and the splash over the kitchen sink. In the older homes near downtown Belton these are the rooms where real wood would warp.
- The whole front of the houseTilt the slats and the front room is private from the street while you keep a view out. From the curb, every window looks the same, which cleans up the front of a 1970s split level.
- Kids' rooms and playroomsCordless lift is available on both wood and faux wood, and it's the option Belton parents ask us about first. Nothing hangs down near a bed or a crib.
- Painted trim in newer homesThe newer homes in Autumn Ridge have white or off white trim. Faux wood comes in matched whites, and real wood takes a stain that can match the front door.
Worth Knowing
Choosing real wood or faux wood for each room in a Belton home
Blinds show up on a lot of our Belton quotes for good reason. They are the lowest initial investment of anything we install, the slats give you daytime privacy with a view out, and the house looks uniform from the street. A family in a three bedroom ranch can do every window at once and still keep a fair total. Our Design Specialist measures each opening on site, because a settled 1960s frame is rarely square and a blind ordered in a standard size will show the gap.
Real wood is lighter, so it suits wide windows where a heavier blind would be hard to lift, and it takes a stain, so it can match the oak trim in an older Belton house. Faux wood is a durable engineered polymer that won't crack, chip or fade, so it's the pick for kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms, and it comes in painted whites that match newer trim. Slats come in 1, 2 and 2 1/2 inch sizes, with 2 inch as the default, and routeless slats block more light when closed.
Blinds block a good amount of light tilted closed, but a bedroom for a night shift sleeper is better served by a blackout Roller Shade with channels, and a drafty north bedroom gets more insulation from a Honeycomb Shade. We'll point that out at the consultation and price the other option if you want it. The visit is free, the quote is itemized and held for 180 days, and our Install Techs take the old aluminum blinds away on install day.

Straight Answers
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds questions from Belton homeowners
Yes, of everything we install, Wood & Faux Wood Blinds are the lowest initial investment. The price depends on the size of each window, real wood or faux wood, the operating system and any valance or cornice, and your quote lists every window so you can adjust before you order.
Yes, and we recommend it. A bathroom in a 1970s Belton split level gets steamy with the door shut, and faux wood won't crack, chip or fade in that moisture. It wipes clean and comes in whites that match a painted vanity. Save the real wood for the living room and bedrooms.
Yes, on both wood and faux wood. Cordless, Cordless Lift & Lock and Motorized are all child safe, with no accessible cord anywhere on the blind. That's the setup most Belton parents choose for the bedrooms.
During the day, tilt the slats and you have privacy with a view out. After dark with the lamps on, close the slats fully. For a front room in one of the older homes near downtown Belton, that's the daily routine, and it works well.
Yes, as long as it's measured to that window. Belton's older ranches have frames that have dropped a little on one side, so our Design Specialist measures every opening at the consultation and the blind we order fits the frame you have.
Yes. Our Carefree Guarantee covers them with a lifetime product warranty that stays with the house, free repair of defects for five years, and one Life Happens repair if an accident damages a blind in that time.
