Window treatments make or break a room or space. Savvy homeowners are aware of the timeless beauty and elegance of wood blinds. They know the benefits of using wood blinds in their windows. Are there any innovations in wood blinds of which homeowners should be aware?
Woven Wood Blinds
You bet. Anyone walking into a room with wood window treatments automatically feels the aura of elegance and timelessness of wood. Add motorization to the blinds, and homeowners have an unbeatable combination. What are the advantages of using woven wood blinds?
Natural Materials
Don’t let the word “woven” confuse you. Woven wood blinds are woven, yes, but then they’re pressed into the slats we recognize on blinds. They’re made mainly of bamboo, but they also use jute, grasses, and all kinds of natural materials.
You’re In Control
It’s more about light control than privacy, so woven wood blinds will need a liner or a curtain over the blinds for homeowners wishing for privacy. Of course, some weaves are thicker than others, so the blinds prevent passersby from seeing into your house. Depending on the level of privacy you desire, you can always buy woven blinds whose slats are more solid.

Motorized Blinds
The inventor of motorization hit the jackpot with window blinds. Little kids won’t get tangled up in the cords and possibly choke, pets won’t do it either, and the cords won’t puddle on the floor and be a reason to trip and fall. Here’s how motorized blinds in Montgomery County, PA will benefit your family:
- High windows. Decorative-shaped windows are usually installed high on walls you can’t reach. Motorization will make those windows easier to cover and open.
- Security. Experts recommend putting window treatments and lights on a timer when you’re away from home. An app from your window treatment company lets you control the time and placement of your window treatments.
- Energy efficiency. Natural light is infinitely good for us, but it brings heat with it. Woven wood blinds filter that light so we only get that from the sun. They also make great insulation when the weather turns colder.
- Smart. The Internet of Things or IoT isn’t about having the newest toys. It’s about working together to make your home and your life safer and more efficient. Apps join your woven wood blinds to the other smart things in your home to make your life easier.
