Looking for a way to add classic warmth and style to any room in your house? Wood blinds are a perfect window covering for almost every room in your home, adding a sense of warmth and style at a lower price than shutters. With so many beautiful stains and paints to choose from and a wide variety of available options, wood blinds offer a timeless elegance to any home.
1. Energy Efficiency
While cellulars get all the credit for this key point, wood blinds are remarkably green in this regard. Wood blinds have an average R Value (the amount the reduce heat loss) of 3.5-4, which is comparable to many single cell and sheer cellulars. More notably, wood blinds have a U Value (the amount of heat they prevent from entering your home) of .26- meaning they reduce heat gain by up to 74% when closed.
2. High Quality at a Great Price
Ask anyone in the industry who makes the best wood blinds and the answer may surprise you- it’s usually Levolor or Bali that earn the recommendation of pros, not high-profile “designer” brands. Both brands have a wide array of colors to meet anyone’s style, and both individually hand craft their slats. In addition, Bali’s wood blinds are made using sustainable forestry techniques, including replanting all wood that is harvested and only using North American Hardwood. Don’t want to take the word of the pros? Over 90% of our customers would recommend Bali’s wood blinds to a friend, and 100% say the same of Levolor’s wood blinds. Starting at less than $90 for 30” x 60” blind, you’ll have room to spare in your budget for our third reason to choose wood.
3. Unique Options to Customize Your Space
Features in wood blinds aren’t just about ladder tapes anymore (although both Bali and Levolor offer a wide variety of beautiful options in this regard). Whether you’re out to eliminate
tangled cords, want to increase privacy, or are looking for stylish valance options, wood blinds have you covered. Available free of route holes and cords, wood blinds are a safe, easy to clean, and privacy-enhancing choice for your home. Want a beautiful way to top it off? Try adding one of many available decorative valances and cornices to your window for the perfect finishing
touch.
Levolor blinds are one of the most trusted and desired window shade brands on the market. Levolor continues to be a top choice in window treatments with their wide variety of high end cellular, roman and woven wood shades as well as vertical, aluminum, faux and wood blinds, and panel track window treatments.. Levolor provides excellent value, superior quality, and lots of style.
Since the early 1900’s, Levolor shades have been the go-to source for window shades. Today, Levolor maintains this loyal dedication to quality, value, and innovative style in the world of window shades. Levolor is a division of the Newell-Rubbermaid Company, a global marketer of consumer and commercial products.
After starting up in 1914, Levolor quickly became synonymous with aluminum horizontal blinds or the 1” mini-blind that continue to be featured in just about everyone’s home in the US. Levolor is also well known for their contemporary Levolor Accordia cellular shades and their continued excellence in creating stylish custom window treatments. If you are looking for a unique look for your window coverings, Levolor blinds should be at the top of your list.
Levolor shades are a timeless addition to any home or office. As beautiful as they are functional, Levolor blinds will continue to be a worldwide market leader in window fashions. The diverse line of Levolor shades includes attractive designer creations such as vertical blinds, aluminum blinds, and wood blinds. Levolor cellular shades, woven wood shades, and sheer vertical shades round out their diverse offerings.
The Levolor Accordia cellular shades are one of the most popular blind choices they offer. These stylish honeycomb-shaped energy savers, available in a variety of fabrics, conveniently and effectively trap air. This creates a layer of insulation right at the window, which normally does not have as much insulative value as the surround wall. The pockets of these cellular shades increase the energy efficiency of windows in both winter and summer. For those who are looking for a quick and affordable way to instantly save money on heating and cooling, Levolor cellular shades are an ideal match.

For people who love DIY projects, installing cellular blinds would be a great way to save money on installation fees and it makes a great afternoon project. If you are not into do-it-yourself projects, but you still want to attempt the installation of honeycomb blinds by yourself, don’t worry our products come with easy to understand installation manuals. Also, we have listed some general tips below to help you install your Levolor cellular shades or any other brand you’ve chosen.
Read the Manual
While this is very obvious, a lot of people forego reading the instruction manual thinking that it would be easy figuring out how to install cellular blinds without reading the manual. If it is your first time installing honeycomb blinds or Levolor cellular shades, it is strongly recommended that you follow the manual. The manuals usually include helpful tips as well as trouble shooting guides for any issues you might encounter.
Be Ready
Before you start the installation process of your honeycomb blinds make sure that you have all the tools ready. Some of the basic tools that you would need include measuring tape, pencil or marker, power drill and drill bits, and a screwdriver. You can also check the installation manual for other tools that may be needed.
Be Organized
Now that you have your tools ready to install your honeycomb blinds, you should also organize all the components of the cellular shades before starting the installation. Carefully open up the packaging and place each shade in the room it will be installed. Next, take the installation brackets and screws you will need for each shade and place them next to your window. The installation manual will let you know how many brackets and screws each shade will need. This will save you time and headache when you start.
Double Check
Measure twice, cut once. Don’t make mistakes when drilling; make sure that your measurements are correct. Double check your measurements prior to installing the brackets to avoid more holes in the wall or casement than is necessary when installing Levolor cellular shades or any honeycomb blinds.
By following the installation manual and keeping in mind these general tips, you will be well on your way to installing that perfect window treatment for the home or any establishment.
