What Are Venetian Blinds?
Venetian blinds consist of horizontal slats connected by ladder cords or tapes. By adjusting the angle of the slats you
can control how much light enters a room and how much privacy you have. They are a classic choice that works in almost
any interior — from traditional homes to contemporary spaces.
- Horizontal slats that tilt for light and privacy control.
- Made-to-measure for a perfect fit on any window.
- Available in aluminium, real wood and faux wood to suit different rooms and décor.
- Suitable for a range of environments including living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and offices.
Types of Venetian Blinds
We offer three main styles of Venetian blinds, each with its own strengths and ideal applications:
- Aluminium Venetian blinds – lightweight, durable, and easy to maintain, perfect for kitchens, bathrooms and busy spaces.
- Real wood Venetian blinds – warm and elegant, with excellent insulation properties for living rooms and bedrooms.
- Faux wood Venetian blinds – moisture-resistant and highly practical while still offering a wood-like look.
Aluminium Venetian Blinds
Aluminium Venetian blinds are a practical and versatile choice. Their lightweight construction makes them easy to operate,
and they come in a wide range of colours and slat widths to suit your room. They’re also very easy to keep clean and
resistant to moisture, making them ideal for kitchens, bathrooms or home offices where durability matters.

Wooden Venetian Blinds
Wooden Venetian blinds bring a warm, natural feel to your home. Made from lightweight timber such as basswood,
these blinds are ideal in living rooms, dining areas and bedrooms where aesthetics, insulation and comfort matter.
Their natural look adds character and helps reduce heat loss when compared with metal alternatives.
- Classic, warm appearance that complements both traditional and modern interiors.
- Excellent natural insulation — wood helps regulate room temperature.
- Available in multiple slat sizes for tailored light control and style.
- Customisable finishes and tapes for added style and personality.

Decorative Tapes and Style Choices
To personalise your Venetian blinds, you can choose from a range of decorative tapes that sit alongside the slats.
Tapes add visual interest and can be matched or contrasted with your blind colour to enhance your interior design.
- Cotton tapes available in multiple colours and widths.
- Contrast or match colours depending on your style preference.
- Decorative detailing that adds character to your blinds.
Light and Privacy Control
Venetian blinds are a favourite for controlling light and privacy. The horizontal slats can be tilted to:
- Let in natural light while blocking the view from outside.
- Diffuse glare without fully lowering the blind.
- Provide full privacy when slats are closed.
Motorised Venetian Blinds
For effortless convenience, Venetian blinds can be motorised. With motorised systems you can adjust tilt (and on
some models, raise and lower) using a remote control, smart hub app or voice assistant — perfect for large windows,
multi-blind installations or hard-to-reach places.
- Remote, app or voice control for modern living.
- Great for multiple blinds used together across large windows.
- Cleaner, cord-free look for a minimalist finish.
Care & Maintenance
Keeping Venetian blinds looking their best is simple with a regular cleaning routine. Different materials benefit from
slightly different care:
- Aluminium slats: wipe with a damp cloth or soft sponge.
- Faux wood slats: wipe clean with a damp cloth; won’t warp in humidity.
- Wood slats: dust gently and avoid excessive moisture.
