Equal Housing LenderOur Faux Wood Blinds Provide Your Windows with Durable Protection
Faux wood blinds convincingly imitate the look of real wood, lending your room warmth and traditional beauty. However, unlike real wood blinds, composite blinds can hold up to the wear and tear of daily life without losing their elegant appearance. This makes them popular choices for outfitting windows in humid rooms or high traffic areas of the home.
At Galaxy Draperies, we understand the importance of finding window treatments that can stand up to anything you throw their way. That’s why we install two types of faux wood blinds for active households, like yours, across Los Angeles, CA, and throughout the San Fernando Valley. Both our composite blinds and faux wood blinds emulate the elegant look of real wood. However, these window blinds won’t wilt in the face of humidity or chip with frequent use, making them a smart investment for any homeowner.
Faux Wood Blinds
While manufacturers craft traditional wood blinds by sawing wooden slats, composite blinds use wood pulp as their base material. This pulp is combined with plastic resins and pressed into a slat shape. Once finished, composite blinds possess the same warm tones as their traditional wood counterparts. However, the unique manufacturing process provides these faux wood blinds with numerous additional benefits, including:
- A lighter weight, which makes them easier to manage
- Humidity resistance, which makes these blinds idea for bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens
- Chip and scratch resistance, which keeps these blinds beautiful for years to come
In the end, you are receiving the desired aesthetics of wood while taking advantage of the unrivaled durability of composite.
Composite Blinds
Composite blinds contain no actual wood. Instead, they’re crafted from a durable plastic material. Unlike wood, composite blinds are resistant to the following:
- Moisture, enabling you to use them in humid rooms
- Fire, providing your home with additional protection
- Chipping and cracking, allowing your window treatments to endure
Both our composite blinds and our faux wood blinds possess numerous customization options that will perfectly complement the décor of your indoor living space and your personal taste. Our blinds also come with different operation options, including child-safe pulls and motorization systems.
Light Control
Our blinds effortlessly open and close, so you can block out unwanted sun in the early hours of the morning or at the brightest part of the day when too much sun can overheat your living spaces.
Privacy
When fully closed, composite blinds effectively block out the street view into your home and allow for total and complete privacy. This eliminates the fishbowl effect of having uncovered windows throughout the day.
Motorization
Our motorized blinds are perfect for difficult-to-reach windows and serve as a smart choice for any homeowner with small children and small pets, as a cord, which can present as a strangulation risk, is not required.
This is because these blinds are easily controlled Somfy, which works with Alexa and Google Assistant through “if this then that” tech (IFTTT). This program also works with other home automation platforms and can be controlled via app when you aren’t home.

What People Say About Us
"From scheduling our appointment to meeting with our designer, Bernadette, and the installer, Alfredo, we were met with professionalism and comforted in knowing we were dealing with people who knew what they were doing. Arrival times were well within the two-hour window. Bernadette shared her knowledge and expertise to help us choose the window treatments that best fit our needs and budget. We are so pleased with the final result and look forward to covering the rest of the window in our home."
"My wife and I recently moved and were in the market for new shades for our bathroom , living room and kitchen . We didn't really have a set vision so it was unbelievable when our designer Karen went through all the possibilities and showed us what would work well with the setup . Karen was not only very professional , she was personable and super knowledgeable about the products. I wish I could have her design the rest of our house ! Great product , great designer, great experience!"
"I would like to say that Galaxy Draperies was the best choice we've made. We recently purchased a new home and wanted to thank Bernadette for the amazing service she provided. I was referred to her by my sister, which also happened to purchase through you guys. Not only did Bernadette make me feel comfortable but it felt like I was working with family."
"Ordered Roman Shades for five windows. Designer who came to our home was nice and professional, Roman Shades arrived on time, the installation was handled by their installer who called and asked if he could come by earlier than our appointment, which was great. He was friendly, professional and did a great job! Highly recommend this company."
"I had a great experience with Galaxy. The designer presented me with several options and was very helpful in designing my window treatments. The installers were very professional, courteous, and careful! I will definitely use them in the future!"
"Galaxy Draperies was very professional, timely and responsive to the issue we had with one of the new shades. From their design team to the installation, everyone was very nice, informative and helpful. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing new window coverings."
"Great experience end to end with Galaxy. From the initial consult to the end product, communication was clear and everyone I interacted with was lovely. Highly recommended this company!"
"I just used Galaxy Draperies. I had a very heavy window covering which was mostly impossible to use. We looked at options and Galaxy Draperies suggested we use a motorized window covering. The material is beautiful and it's made so well. You can't see through from outside in yet you can see outside from inside the house. It works so quietly and solved all my problems. The wonderful lady who came to our house was great and always returned calls and did a wonderful job. I highly recommend them."
