The Benefits of Wood Window Coverings
Homeowners can choose different materials for window treatments, including fabric, metal, composite, and genuine wood. The Custom Wood Shutters & Blinds design team often recommends wood window coverings, like woven wood window shades, because of their many benefits, like enhanced aesthetics and increased durability.

The Natural Beauty of Wood Window Coverings
Natural wood for window treatments has a timeless, elegant appeal that can pull a room together. Their unique grains and tones create one-of-a-kind looks. Wood window treatments also complement different decor schemes, including modern, minimalist, and traditional.
Finishes like dark or light stains on wood window coverings allow their true beauty to come through. These window treatments also complement other natural materials in the home, like hardwood floors, stone countertops, or wooden furniture.
Wood Window Coverings are Durable and Dependable
Wood is a long-lasting material that can serve you for many years with proper care. It tends to age gracefully, making it a good investment for homeowners looking for something with longevity.
Wood window coverings also provide superior insulation. The natural density of wood reduces heat transfer, keeping homes cooler in the hotter months and warmer in the cooler months, which might lower your energy bills. These natural window treatments are easy to maintain, too, with regular dusting and occasional polishing to keep them looking fresh.
Types of Wood Window Coverings
Hunter Douglas offers premium, custom-made wood window coverings in several styles, such as:
Woven Wood Window Shades
These wood window coverings don’t have slats or louvers. Woven wood window shades have artisanal fabrics made with woods, bamboo, grasses, or reeds. They add texture and organic appeal to rooms, gently filter light, and offer privacy. Like wood shutters and blinds, they’re also eco-friendly.
Hunter Douglas woven wood window shades include:
- Provenance® Woven Wood Shades: These durable woven wood shades come in Roman, Waterfall Roman, and Vertical Drapery styles. They filter light gently, but an independent liner in sheer or opaque styles adds more light control and privacy.
- Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades: These shades comprise roller and Roman shades characteristics with sheer, semi-sheer, and semi-opaque fabric opacities. You can enhance the luxurious and unique globally sourced fabrics.
Interior Wood Shutters
Window shutters comprise wood, vinyl, or composite materials. They have hinged panels with adjustable horizontal slats called louvers that control light and privacy. Professional installers can attach them to your window frames.
Hunter Douglas artisans craft Heritance® Wood Shutters from sustainably sourced hardwood poplar or basswood material. These luxury interior shutters come in 2 ½", 3 ½", or 4 ½" louver sizes. They feature Truemill® dovetail construction, which uses artisan joinery instead of glue for sturdier shades, and the brand’s Integra™ Finish.
Wood Blinds
Blinds have horizontal wooden slats that you tilt to control light and privacy. To install them, you or a professional installer mount brackets inside or outside the window frame, and the blinds are attached to the brackets.
Parkland® Wood Blinds feature sustainably sourced hardwood basswood. They come in various stain and paint choices. Choose 2" or 2 ½" slat sizes and options like decorative tapes and the de-Light™ feature.
