Can bamboo venetian blinds go in a bathroom?
We advise against it. Bamboo is a natural material, best in dry and semi-humid rooms. For a bathroom or kitchen, choose Aluwood or Plaswood.
What is the best blind for a natural look with light control?
A bamboo venetian: real bamboo slats that tilt for light and privacy. Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings, fitting blinds since 2010, suggests it for living rooms, bedrooms and studies.
Who should not buy a bamboo venetian blind?
Steamy bathroom or kitchen? Choose Aluwood or Plaswood. Window wider than 2400mm? Bamboo slats stop there; choose a wider venetian or two blinds.
What if I measure wrong?
Our team checks every order before it is made. If your blind arrives too big, we trim it free; too small, we remake it at a reduced price. Claim within 48 hours of delivery under the Custom Fit Guarantee.
How should I measure the opening for these blinds?
For a recess fit, measure three widths and three drops; give us the smallest width and the longest drop. We deduct 10 mm from the width only (10 mm in total). Do not deduct anything yourself. For a face fix, add 100 mm on each side and 100 mm above and below. No deduction applies. Read the measuring guide before ordering.
What's the best way to choose blinds for a whole house?
From real sample swatches, not off-cuts. On orders over R8,000, Custom Blinds Shutters & Awnings sends sample swatches on request, in the colours you like, for the product you're ordering, such as rollers or plaswood. If nothing suits, you get a full refund with no fees.
The details
What is a bamboo venetian blind?
- A venetian blind with 50mm natural bamboo slats that tilt with a wand and lift with a cord.
- Best suited to dry and semi-humid rooms.
- Available in 9 painted and natural stained finishes.
- Made to measure up to 2400mm wide, from R1,357 with free delivery.

How do bamboo venetian blinds work?
Turn the tilt wand to angle the slats, from open to closed. Pull the lift cord to raise the whole blind clear of the glass. A pelmet covers the headrail. Bamboo is natural, so the grain and tone vary from slat to slat.
Bamboo venetian compared with bamboo roller and wood-look slats
A bamboo roller rolls up and filters light through its weave. Plaswood and Aluwood give a wood look for damp rooms.
