Wood & Faux Wood Blinds In Mission
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds in Mission, KS
Wood blinds and faux wood blinds are the most affordable way to finish every window in a Mission home. A three bedroom ranch from the 1950s has a dozen or so windows that all need covering, and our Solar Shield Blinds Wood & Faux Wood Blinds do the whole house with slats that tilt for privacy and still show you the yard.
Where It Fits In Mission
Where wood blinds and faux wood blinds fit in Mission
For a Mission family that wants every window done at once and done right, blinds make the most sense, and the cordless options make them safe in the kids' rooms.
- Kitchens and bathroomsFaux wood stands up to the shower steam in a small ranch bathroom and the splash over the sink. Real wood can warp in those rooms.
- The front of a Fairway Cape CodBlinds on every window across the front read as one clean line from the street, which suits the symmetry of a Cape Cod.
- Kids' roomsWood and faux wood both come with a cordless lift, which keeps cords away from a crib or a bunk bed.
- Stained trim in older homesReal wood takes a stain, so a bungalow in Mission Hill Acres with its original stained trim can have blinds that match it.
Worth Knowing
Real wood or faux wood, room by room
Of everything we install, blinds are the lowest initial investment, which is why they appear on so many Mission quotes. The slats give you daytime privacy with a view out, and the house looks the same from every side of the street. A family in a ranch or a Cape Cod can do every window at once and keep the total reasonable. Your Design Specialist measures each opening on site, since a 1950s frame is rarely perfectly square and a standard size blind leaves a gap.
Real wood is lighter, so it works on a wide picture window where a heavier blind would be hard to raise, and it takes a stain to match older trim. Faux wood is an engineered polymer that shrugs off moisture without cracking, chipping or fading, which makes it the choice for a kitchen, bath or laundry room, and its whites line up with painted trim. Slats are 1, 2 or 2 1/2 inches wide, 2 inch is the default, and a routeless slat closes tighter against the light.
Closed blinds block a good amount of light, but a bedroom that has to be dark at noon does better with a blackout Roller Shade in channels, and a cold lower level room gets more from a Honeycomb Shade. We'll say so at the visit and price the other option if you'd like to compare. The consultation is free, the quote holds for 180 days, and our Install Techs take the old blinds with them on install day.

Straight Answers
Wood & Faux Wood Blinds questions from Mission homeowners
Yes. Wood & Faux Wood Blinds are the lowest initial investment of anything we install. The total depends on the size of each window, wood or faux wood, the lift and any valance, and your quote lists every window so you can adjust before ordering.
Yes. A small ranch bathroom fills with steam, and faux wood won't crack, chip or fade in that moisture. It wipes clean and comes in whites that match a painted vanity, so save real wood for the living room and bedrooms.
Yes. Real wood takes a stain, and your Design Specialist brings stain samples to hold against the trim in your Mission Hill Acres or Countryside home so the blinds and the woodwork look like they belong together.
Yes, in both wood and faux wood. Cordless, Cordless Lift & Lock and Motorized all leave no reachable cord on the blind, and that's what most parents pick for bedrooms.
During the day, tilt the slats and the room is private with a view out. Once the lamps come on, close them fully. For a front room on Lamar or Nall that routine covers it.
Yes. They're part of our Carefree Guarantee, so the product warranty is lifetime and stays with the address, any defect is repaired free for five years, and Life Happens covers one accident in that span.
