Many homes and offices have windows that are different sizes. If a blind is even a little bit too small, it will leave spaces. These gaps let in bright streetlights at night, which makes it difficult to stay private. Also, the area’s weather, ranging from hot and sticky summers to freezing winters, can cause cheap, thin blinds to bend or break.
We repair old wooden systems and constructs new ones to address these issues. The goal is to use thick, strong materials that can cover a big window without breaking.
Why Real Wood Is a Better Choice
Solid wood is a strong material that provides several benefits to a room:
- Strong Parts: Thick wood slats don’t lose their shape like thin plastic does. This keeps the window looking neat and straight for a long time.
- Full Cover: Each piece is cut to fit the frame perfectly. This closes up the gaps on the sides that let in light and heat.
- Natural Shield: In the summer, the thick wood protects you from the sun’s heat. It helps keep the warm air from escaping through the cold glass in the winter.
You can easily tilt the slats to any angle. This lets light hit the ceiling, which makes the room brighter, but it still keeps people on the street from seeing in.
How to Fix Heavy Wood Blinds
The strings and gears inside have to work hard because wood blinds are heavy. Professional Shades Custom Window Treatments can help if a blind is too heavy to lift, hangs lower on one side, or has broken slats.
How?
- Fixing the Gears: Fixing the parts inside the top rail so that the heavy slats can turn together without getting stuck.
- Changing Slats: Taking out wood pieces that are broken or stained and putting in new ones that are the same size.
New Lifting Strings: Getting rid of old cords and putting in new ones that are strong enough to hold the wood.
Securing the Top Rail: Bolting the metal bar deep into the wall or wood trim will keep it level and safe.
A variety of wood stains and paint colors are brought to the room. This is the best way to tell if the wood matches the floor or the furniture in the house when the lights are on. The job includes checking the depth of the window and putting it up for good. This keeps the custom wood blinds from moving around and rubbing against the window frame.
