FAQs

Can these blinds be cut to size?

These blinds are designed for standard sizing; modifying the width may damage the mechanism. Please measure your window accurately before purchase.

Can I install these in a bathroom?

Real wood is susceptible to warping in high-humidity environments. We recommend avoiding installation in bathrooms or rooms with high moisture levels.

How do I clean the wood slats?

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. For tougher spots, wipe gently with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth and dry immediately.

Is the mounting hardware included?

Yes, standard installation brackets are included with the product. Ensure you have the correct fixings for your specific wall type, such as masonry or plasterboard.

Are the strings durable?

The blinds use high-quality woven string tapes designed for regular daily use, ensuring smooth operation over time.

What is the drop of this blind?

This specific variant features a 120cm drop.

Troubleshooting

The blind is tilting unevenly.

Check the string tapes to ensure they are not twisted or caught on the mounting brackets. Manually adjust the tilt wand to reset the alignment.

The blind is difficult to lift.

Ensure the blind is not obstructed at the window sill. Check that the cord lock mechanism is fully released and not jammed by debris.

Slat won't stay in the tilted position.

Verify that the tilt wand is securely connected to the tilting mechanism and that there is no tension buildup in the cord system.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality real wood finish adds warmth to room decor
  • Sturdy construction ensures long-term durability
  • Wide 50mm slats provide optimal light adjustment
  • Easy to clean and maintain with basic dusting
  • Provides significant privacy compared to thinner blinds

Cons

  • Wood material is heavier to lift than PVC or aluminum
  • Not suitable for high-humidity areas like bathrooms
  • String tapes require careful handling to avoid tangling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the blind should be handled with standard tools suited for your specific wall or window frame material. Ensure the bracket hardware is mounted level to guarantee smooth lifting. For compatibility, measure the width of your window recess accurately to ensure a perfect fit, allowing for minor clearance if installing inside the frame.

Care instructions are straightforward: use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a feather duster to remove dust regularly. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive water, as moisture can cause natural wood to warp or discolor. If a deep clean is necessary, use a slightly damp cloth followed immediately by a dry one to remove any residual moisture.
