Where It Fits In Lenexa

Where wood and faux wood blinds fit in Lenexa

Blinds are the practical answer for a lot of Lenexa homes: many windows, close neighbors, and a front that should look uniform from the street.

  • Stain matched to original trimReal wood takes a stain, so a blind in a Whispering Hills ranch can match the oak trim until it reads as part of the woodwork.
  • Bathrooms and laundry roomsSteam and splashes are where real wood struggles. Faux wood won't crack, chip or fade, and it goes over every tub and sink.
  • Front rooms on a close streetTilt the slats and you see the street while the street sees the underside of the blind, which is the everyday privacy a front room needs.
  • Covering a whole houseFaux wood blinds are the lowest initial investment we offer, which makes them a smart way to cover every window in a home at once.

Worth Knowing

Real wood, faux wood, and the details that finish a blind

Wood & Faux Wood Blinds give you the option to match the woods and painted colors already in your Lenexa home. Tilt them part way and you get daytime privacy to the inside while you still see out to the yard. Tilt them closed when the sun sits on the floor, and raise them when you want the whole window back, with the slats stacking at the top of the opening. From outside, they give the front of the home a clean look and real curb appeal.

Real wood is lighter than faux wood, so it stays easy to operate on a wide window, and it takes a stain for matching stained trim. Faux wood is a durable engineered polymer that brings the benefits of vinyl anywhere there's moisture, and against painted white trim it looks the same as real wood and costs less. Three operating systems are available: Cordless, Cordless Lift & Lock, and Motorized, and all three are child safe with no accessible cord.

Routeless slats have no route holes, so more light stays out when the blind is tilted closed, and a modern valance, a decorative valance or a wood cornice finishes the headrail. Blinds block a good amount of light but won't give full blackout, so for a bedroom that has to be dark we'll show you a shade or a drapery layered over the blind. Your Design Specialist measures every window in your Lenexa home, including any that are out of square, and the blinds are installed 4 to 6 weeks after you order.

Straight Answers

Wood & Faux Wood Blinds questions from Lenexa homeowners

Yes. Real wood blinds take a stain, and your Design Specialist brings the stain samples to your home to match against the trim in the room's own light. A matched blind looks like it was installed with the trim.

Yes, faux wood every time. Steam and standing humidity are hard on real wood, and our faux wood won't crack, chip or fade. It wipes clean, and in a Lenexa bathroom where the window faces the house next door, it gives you privacy that holds up for years.

Yes. Cordless and Cordless Lift & Lock blinds have no accessible cord anywhere on the blind, and Cordless Lift & Lock holds its position anywhere in the travel without a cord lock to release. That's why we recommend them for any room where kids or pets spend their day.

Yes, with a hold down bracket at the bottom so the blind doesn't swing when the door does. We measure the door on site so the blind clears the handle and the trim, and your Design Specialist will show you the options at your Lenexa consultation.

For most windows, yes. Two inch is our default. On a tall window, two and a half inch reads more substantial and lets a little more light through when open, and one inch suits small openings. Your Design Specialist brings each size so you can hold it up against your own window.

Yes. Of everything we install in Lenexa, Wood & Faux Wood Blinds carry the lowest initial investment. The final price depends on how many windows you cover, their sizes, wood or faux wood, the slat size, the lift and the valance. Your quote is itemized window by window, so you can mix blinds and shades room by room.
