Earth Friendly & Naturally Beautiful
It’s a mission that many of us embark upon: to relish the finer things and make sustainable choices that lead to a healthier tomorrow. Our premium Phoenix Wood originates from “miracle” forests that rejuvenate every 7 years after harvest.
While the premium hardwood is exquisitely grained and durable, it is also a sustainable choice.
Explore SmartPrivacy®
Traditional blinds contain route holes in the middle of the slats, allowing light to penetrate and reducing privacy. With award-winning patented SmartPrivacy, our innovative design places the route holes at the back of the slat.
This allows us to substantially minimize light leakage and enhance privacy. Achieve a whole new level of refinement and comfort stylishly and effortlessly.
See the SmartPrivacy Difference
Unlike traditional wooden blinds, our SmartPrivacy blinds close more tightly and slats rotate more consistently. Additionally, the innovative design secures the slats in place so they won’t fall out or become misaligned.
The bottom rail also stays more level during raising and lowering. They’re almost like blinds reinvented. Actually, they pretty much are.
Cordless for Extra Peace of Mind
The cordless lift system—often considered a premium upgrade—comes standard with our wood blinds. Easily adjust the slats, even on wide windows, for added convenience. Norman cordless blinds enhance the style of your space. To operate, simply raise or lower the blind by gently lifting or lowering the bottom rail.
A Natural Finish
The optional Premium Colors finish is a safe, natural, and eco-friendly stain-finish made from natural plant oils and vegetable waxes, free from common paint and stains harmful substances.
In a palette of on-trend colors, Premium Colors amplifies wood’s natural graining for intensely character-rich slats. Premium Colors penetrates deeply, for durability and rich color that goes beyond the surface and protects against degradation over time.
Customize To Your Exact Needs
Elevated design is in the details. Unique customization options set Ultimate Normandy Wood Blinds apart from the rest. Select from special designer color palettes, finishes, valances, and slat sizes to customize your perfect one-of-a-kind blinds.
Why Should You Use Ultimate Wood Blinds?
Standard blinds leave some things to be desired when it comes to light control and privacy. Ultimate wood blinds are engineered with a bottom rail that completely pivots, so it align with the slat’s resulting in the tightest top to bottom closure.
Other major advantages include:
- Excellent Quality: crafted from high-quality wood materials, wood blinds boast superior durability and longevity.
- Cordless Designs: offer a clean appearance with a cord-free solution.
- Classic look: premium hardwood with a natural finish adds timeless class to any space.
Features & Benefits
Offering the tightest closure in the industry as well as the best cordless operating system, our Ultimate Normandy Wood Blinds are loaded with features you will enjoy.
Tightest Closure
Ultimate's exclusive bottom rail pivots 90 degrees when closed to align with the slat's resulting in the tightest top to bottom closure in the market.
Valance-free headrail
The impact resistant, modern, valance free polydeco headrail is both attractive and trouble-free. The slim profile offers wider views and blends into most trims. Two optional decorative valances are also available.
Built-in Light Block
Ultimate's headrail has built-in light blocks so the top slat is fully recessed eliminating any upper light leakage and the need for a valance.
Quarter Sawn Slats
Unlike cheaper plain sawn slats, our slats are milled from a quartered log. Each Ultimate Normandy Blind slat is cut perpendicular to the grain for added stability and better resistance to warping.
Elegant Grain Patterns
The use of 100% premium hardwood and quarter sawn slats create unique and elegant grain patterns.
Superior Cordless System
Our cordless lift system is "Best for Kids" certified and offers flawless daily operation. Easy to raise and lower and stays level with no slat shift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Woodlore is the #1 selling shutter in the world. It is more stable, robust and stronger than PVC or poorly constructed composite shutters and is guaranteed not to peel, crack, chip or yellow.
Woodlore Shutters are made from a wood composite that is up to 95% wood mixed with polymers under heat and pressure to yield a strong, predictable finished product. The wood core is coated with a patented polypropylene finish to give it further strength and protection from cracking, chipping, yellowing or fading from UV exposure.
Woodlore Shutters are available in a number of different sizes, shapes and frame styles that can be mounted either inside or outside of the window opening. Each shutter is custom made to fit the specific opening and the measurements will vary depending on the style and mounting location chosen. Measuring for shutters is best left to the professionals but there are online measuring guidelines available for those with appropriate skills.
Woodlore shutters can be cleaned by utilizing a dry feather duster, cloth or vacuum with brush attachment to gently remove dust and debris. For best results, a cotton cloth may be dampened with water when necessary.
