Parkland® Wood Blinds

You can also choose from a variety of custom colors to make these genuine wood blinds unique to your tastes, including Oak, White Sand, Espresso, and more.

EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds

Of course, genuine wood blinds may not be for every type of room or lifestyle. For example, if your home sees a lot of traffic or you are wanting to add blinds to your kitchen or bathroom, genuine wood blinds may not be the best option. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas offers an alternative wood blind that offers all of the stylistic benefits of genuine wood blinds with none of the worry. In fact, EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds are made out of a synthetic material that never bows, warps, chips, or breaks when facing intense sunlight, heat, or humidity. These blinds are also made with durability in mind, making them perfect for spaces that see a lot of traffic. Plus, with a realistic TruGrain® that mimics the patterns found in genuine wood, these faux wood blinds never look fake.
