Why Choose Wooden Blinds?

Our curated collection provides a superior blend of function, timeless style, comfort, and quality.

1. Elegant Natural Warmth

Real wood infuses any interior with natural warmth and depth. Our wooden window blinds come in a premium selection of tones and finishes, from customised, spray painted timber to light bamboo. All these are perfectly crafted to complement modern and classic décor styles and elevate any space.

2. Precision Light Control

With adjustable slats, wooden blinds can be tilted to control light and privacy with precision throughout the day. Compared to traditional curtains, our precise mechanisms offer cleaner lines, better airflow, and flexible adjustment. This, in turn, reduces light gaps and unwanted glare when closed, and maximises natural light when open.

3. Built to Last in Singapore’s Climate

According to leading energy institutions, window blinds are effective at reducing glare and heat in the summer, while providing good indoor lighting. Fabrik Etc’s blinds utilise the best, high-quality materials like timber, bamboo, and faux wood finishes to withstand not only high levels of heat but also humidity and moisture. Even better, maintenance is low and requires only a quick dust or wipe, assuring your windows retain their premium look for years.

4. Enhances Home Value

Choosing our bespoke wooden blinds is an investment that immediately elevates your property’s appeal and quality. Their clean lines and custom, durable materials lend a highly desirable aesthetic to any interior, particularly those favouring Japandi, Bohemian, or industrial themes.

5. Sustainable By Design

We are committed to sustainability by using high-quality timber that allows our products to be more long-lasting. This reduces the waste associated with frequent replacements, making our wooden blinds ideal for eco-conscious clients.

Types of Wooden Blinds Available at Fabrik

At Fabrik Etc, our standard and custom range of natural and faux-wood blinds is designed to seamlessly balance sophisticated style with essential everyday practicality.

1. Real Wood Blinds

For clients seeking a luxurious aesthetic and enduring quality, our meticulously crafted wood blinds showcase the natural grain of ethically sourced timber, lending an organic, warm feel to any space. These bespoke wood blinds are ideal for creating a clean, refined ambience in living rooms, master bedrooms, and private studies, suitable for homeowners seeking a Scandinavian or Wabi Sabi interior design.

2. Faux Wood Blinds

Made from durable (PVC) or polyurethane (PU) materials, these window shades mimic the look and finish of real wood at a more accessible price point without sacrificing style. Crucially, they are highly moisture-resistant and incredibly easy to clean and maintain. This makes them the perfect solution for high-humidity areas like kitchens, utility rooms, and bathrooms.

3. Motorised Wooden Blinds

Integrating leading technology from trusted motorisation brands like Somfy, DOOYA, and A-OK, our store has motorised wooden blinds that allow you to adjust the slats remotely. Users can easily control light and privacy via a remote control or a dedicated smart app, which enhances both comfort and energy management in any space. Our motorised options are particularly beneficial for large windows or windows in hard-to-reach areas, offering unparalleled convenience for any modern or luxury residence.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wooden Blinds

1. What are wooden blinds?

Wooden blinds are window coverings made from real timber or bamboo slats that can be tilted to control light and privacy. They can also be raised entirely for an unobstructed view. Wooden blinds combine the classic beauty of natural wood with the functionality of adjustable blinds. They offer a warm and timeless look that suits a variety of interior styles, from modern to traditional.

2. What are the benefits of wooden blinds?

Wooden blinds add a natural elegance to any space. Their rich textures and organic tones bring warmth and depth to interiors. They are suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices. Beyond aesthetics, wooden blinds also offer excellent light and privacy control. The slats can be easily tilted to regulate sunlight while maintaining airflow. Because they are made from natural timber, they are more lightweight, making them easier to lift up and down.

3. Are wooden blinds suitable for Singapore’s humid weather?

Yes, wooden blinds are a popular choice for homes, particularly in units facing strong afternoon and west sun. Their aesthetic appeal makes them ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, and study areas where a touch of sophistication is desired. However, since timber is sensitive to moisture and humidity, we generally do not recommend it for kitchens, bathrooms, or other damp environments. For these areas, our faux wood venetian blinds offer a similar look with better moisture resistance.

4. What finishes and colours are available for Fabrik’s wooden blinds?

At Fabrik Etc, we offer premium wooden blinds for windows in a range of finishes and wood types. You can choose from natural tones or stained options that match your interior décor. Slat widths typically range from 35mm to 50mm, with wider 60mm slats offering a more contemporary and bold appearance. Every set is custom-measured and crafted to ensure a perfect fit for your windows.

5. How do wooden blinds differ from faux wood or PVC blinds?

Faux wood blinds mimic the appearance of natural timber, while real wooden blinds offer an unmatched texture, warmth, and grain variation. Wooden blinds are lighter in weight than faux wood alternatives, which can make them easier to lift for larger windows. However, real wood is more sensitive to moisture and is therefore best reserved for dry areas. Faux wood or PVC blinds are more durable in humid environments but may lack the authenticity and refined finish of real timber.

6. Are wooden blinds good for light and privacy control?

Yes, wooden blinds provide excellent control over light and privacy. You can tilt the slats to diffuse natural light into the room while maintaining a sense of seclusion. When fully closed, they block out a significant amount of light, making them suitable for rest areas. Additionally, wooden blinds offer better privacy than sheer curtains, especially during the evening when the indoor lights are switched on.

7. Can wooden blinds be customised?

Absolutely. All our wooden blinds are custom-made to your window measurements and aesthetic preferences. You can choose the wood colour and slat width. We also provide matching cord colours and headrail designs. Our team will guide you through the selection process, helping you find a look that harmonises with your existing décor and furniture.

8. How do you clean and maintain wooden blinds?

Wooden blinds are relatively easy to maintain, but they do require a bit more care than synthetic options. For regular cleaning, dust the slats using a soft microfibre cloth or a vacuum with a brush attachment. For deeper cleaning, a lightly dampened cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals and never soak the slats, as moisture can cause the wood to rot or crack over time.

9. Can wooden blinds be motorised?

Motorisation for wooden blinds is possible, though it is less common than with lighter materials like faux wood. If you are interested in automated operation, our team can assess your window dimensions and recommend a suitable motorised system that accommodates the weight of timber blinds. This is especially useful for high and large windows.

10. How much do custom wooden blinds cost in Singapore?

The cost of wooden blinds varies depending on the type of timber, slat size, and overall dimensions. Generally, real wood blinds are a premium window treatment due to their material and craftsmanship. At Fabrik Etc, we strive to offer competitive pricing for our premium timber blinds, along with expert advice and on-site consultations. Once we take measurements and understand your preferences, we will provide a detailed quote tailored to your selections.

11. What types of wood are used in Fabrik’s wooden blinds?

We offer premium wooden blinds crafted primarily from timber and bamboo. Timber is favoured for its lightweight yet durable structure, making it one of the best materials for making sturdy wooden blinds. Alternatively, our bamboo options provide an eco-friendly choice with a distinct, organic aesthetic.

12. Can I install wooden blinds on large or bay windows?

Yes. Our expertise includes providing custom wood blinds for oversized windows. In fact, Fabrik is where clients can order wooden blinds with reliable and fast installation in Singapore.

13. How long does it take to measure, fabricate, and install wooden blinds?

Following your initial consultation, precise on-site measurement usually takes 1 week or less. Fabrication for your wooden blinds order typically requires around 14 to 21 working days. Finally, our professional installation team will complete the fitting swiftly, ensuring you can enjoy your new wood blinds as quickly as possible.
