Wood & Faux Wood Blinds in Lansing, KS

Where It Fits In Lansing
Where wood blinds and faux wood blinds fit in Lansing
For a Lansing family that wants the whole house finished at a fair total, blinds are the place to start, and the cordless options make them right for the kids' rooms.
- Builder blinds past their primeSouthern Hills homes from around 1998 came with blinds that have yellowed and lost slats. New faux wood in a matched white makes the whole house look current.
- Kitchens and bathroomsFaux wood stands up to steam over the tub and splashes at the sink. Real wood belongs in the drier rooms.
- Stained trim in older housesReal wood takes a stain, so it can match the oak trim in an older ranch off Main Street instead of fighting it.
- Kids' roomsCordless lift comes on both wood and faux wood, so nothing hangs near a crib or a bunk bed.
Worth Knowing
Real wood or faux wood, room by room in a Lansing house
Blinds land on a lot of Lansing quotes because they are the lowest initial investment of anything we install, the slats tilt for privacy while you keep a view out, and every window looks the same from the street. A family in a four bedroom Southern Hills house can replace every builder blind at once and keep the total reasonable. Our Design Specialist measures each opening on site, because a blind ordered in a standard size shows a gap at the sides.
Real wood is lighter, so it works on wide windows where a heavier blind would be a chore to lift, and it takes a stain to match wood trim. Faux wood is an engineered polymer that won't crack, chip or fade, which makes it the choice for kitchens, baths and laundry rooms, and its painted whites match newer trim. You can pick 1, 2 or 2 1/2 inch slats, 2 inch being the default, and routeless slats let less light through when closed. Many houses mix the two.
Tilted shut, blinds block a good share of light, but a bedroom that has to be dark all day is better served by a blackout Roller Shade with channels, and a cold north room gets more from a Honeycomb Shade. We'll say so at the consultation and price the other option if you want to compare. The visit is free, the quote is itemized and holds for 180 days, and our Install Techs haul the old blinds away on install day.

Straight Answers
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds questions from Lansing homeowners
Yes. Wood & Faux Wood Blinds carry the lowest initial investment in our whole lineup. The price depends on window size, wood or faux wood, the operating system and any valance, and your quote lists each window so you can adjust before ordering.
Yes, and we recommend it. Faux wood won't crack, chip or fade in a steamy bathroom, it wipes clean, and it comes in whites that match a painted vanity. Save 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 reachable cord on the blind.
During the day, tilt the slats and you keep a view out while people outside see very little. After dark with the lamps on, close the slats all the way.
Yes, once the depth is measured. Our Design Specialist checks each casing at the visit, and where it's too shallow for an inside mount we mount outside the trim so the blind still covers the glass.
Yes. Our Carefree Guarantee covers them with a lifetime product warranty that stays with the house, five years of free repairs on defects, and one Life Happens repair if an accident damages a blind.
