Custom Venetian Blinds

Benefits of Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds offer many of the same benefits as vertical blinds, such as excellent light control, privacy, and aesthetic appeal. But they have additional advantages:

1. Reduced Glare: The horizontal slats offer more precise light control, which reduces glare and creates a softer ambiance.
2. Easy Maintenance: Venetian blinds don’t require dusting like other window treatments. You only need a damp cloth or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.
3. Unobstructed View: Unlike vertical blinds, Venetian blinds won’t interfere with your view when fully raised. This feature is especially beneficial for rooms with expansive windows or French doors.
4. Space Saving: Open Venetian blinds stack more compactly than many other window treatments.
5. Versatility: Our blinds come in various sizes, colors, and materials, making them easy to customize for any space.
6. Cost-Effective: Venetian blinds are among the most affordable window treatments.
7. Child and Pet Safety: Cordless or motorized options protect children and pets.

Customizing Your Venetian Blinds

There’s no limit to the ways you can customize your blinds, which might include:

• Cordless and motorized operation for convenience and safety
• Room-darkening slats to keep out sunlight
• Automation for remote control and scheduling
• UV protection to deflect heat and protect your furniture, floors, and artwork
• Specialty coatings to resist dust or moisture
• Valance and decorative headrail for a luxurious touch
• Specialty fabrics to match any decor
• Replacement parts, accessories, and automation for existing blinds

Motorizing Your Blinds

Motorization adds convenience and enhances safety, allowing you to adjust your blinds remotely, via voice command, or according to a schedule.

We use Lutron motorization systems, whose products are known for their ease of use and durability.

• Lutron Sivoia QED (Quiet Electronic Drive): A headrail-integrated system with a 2.4GHz RF radio frequency, enabling cordless operation and remote control of the blinds.
• Lutron Sivoia QS: This motorized system is quiet and powerful, allowing easy operation with a wall switch or remote control. It also offers child-safe features.
• Lutron System Integration: All Lutron motorized systems can be integrated into other automated home systems.

Customizing Your Materials

• Metal: Aluminum Venetian blinds are lightweight and durable. They’re resistant to moisture and are often used in kitchens and bathrooms. Steel Venetian blinds offer a sleek, modern appearance and withstand heavier use.
• Wood: Venetian blinds come in basswood, oak, cherry, and bamboo, among other woods, and can be stained or painted to match your decor.
• Faux Wood: Faux wood blinds are made from composite materials that mimic the appearance of natural wood. They’re more affordable than genuine wood blinds and are moisture-resistant, making them suitable for humid environments.
• Vinyl: Vinyl Venetian blinds are affordable, easy to clean, and available in various colors and patterns. They’re a popular choice for commercial spaces and high-moisture areas.
• Fabric: Fabric or cloth blinds have a softer look, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
• Bamboo: Woven bamboo Venetian blinds offer a natural and eco-friendly option with a light and airy feel.
• Solar: Solar Venetian blinds are designed to reflect the sun’s rays away from your windows, keeping your interior cool during summer.

These are just a few of the materials available to you. We invite you to our Los Angeles showroom to discuss your needs and options.
