Types of Horizontal Blinds

Horizontal blinds are exceptionally popular among our clients at Blinds Plus in Springfield, Missouri. These window coverings feature parallel slats that tilt to control light and privacy. If you tilt the slats open, more light floods and brightens the room. Conversely, tilting them to close blocks out light to create a private sanctuary. Additionally, you can raise them to expose the window entirely. Their mechanism of operation is a cord or wand. However, Hunter Douglas blinds also have the option of cutting-edge PowerView® Automation! There are many types of horizontal blinds. Among the most popular kinds are wood, faux wood, and aluminum and their various designs you can use throughout your home.

Add Classic Elegance to Living Rooms and Sunrooms With Real-Wood Blinds

Real-wood blinds, such as Hunter Douglas Parkland® Wood Blinds, add warmth and a classic touch to any room. With many paints and stains to choose from, wood blinds complement both traditional and contemporary styles. For example, a dark walnut adds coziness to living rooms, while light-colored wood blinds add to the airiness of sunrooms. When you choose Hunter Douglas wood blinds, you can feel good about your purchase because they harvest the wood from responsibly managed forests. They also donate to the Arbor Day Foundation® with every purchase to support its efforts to preserve trees and the rainforest.

Transform High-Traffic and Humid Areas with Stylish Faux Wood Blinds

If you love the look of natural wood blinds but need something more durable for high-traffic, sunny, or humid areas, consider faux wood blinds like Hunter Douglas EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds. These blinds offer the beauty of wood and provide unparalleled durability. Unlike real wood blinds, they will not fade, discolor, warp, or bow. Since they are moisture-resistant, they are an excellent choice for bathrooms and kitchens. Additionally, they are effortless to clean, making them a popular choice for kids' playrooms and homes with curious pets. Smudges and fingerprints can be quickly wiped away with a cloth, keeping the blinds pristine.

Enhance Your Modern Kitchen Decor with Durable Aluminum Blinds

If you prefer a sleek, contemporary style of blind, aluminum blinds may be your perfect choice! Imagine a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and white cabinets.
