Enhance your home with our exquisite custom-made timber venetian blinds. Our blinds are manufactured in New Zealand using premium Marupa timber (Simarouba amara). SunGuard venetian blinds offer exceptional durability and lightweight functionality, making them a perfect fit for both small and large window openings. Unlike off-the-shelf options, custom-made timber blinds are carefully measured and manufactured to match the exact dimensions of your windows, ensuring a seamless and professional look. This tailored fit eliminates unsightly gaps, providing maximum coverage and privacy.
Quality Materials
Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our sourcing practices. The Marupa timber used in our blinds is responsibly harvested from dedicated plantations that uphold the highest quality standards. We prioritize sustainable materials to ensure the longevity of our blinds.
To guarantee long-lasting protection and hassle-free maintenance, each Marupa slat is coated with the latest UV protective finishes. This ensures that your blinds retain their timeless beauty and shield against sun damage for years to come.
Stunning Colour Options and Elegant Design
Our timber blinds are available in an array of stunning colours to suit your preferences. Choose from Alabaster, Black, Light Oak, Dark Oak, and White, available in both 50mm and 60mm slats. We also offer a 75mm colour-coordinated fascia that elegantly conceals the metal headrail, providing a sleek and tidy appearance that complements any interior design style.
Enhanced Functionality with Hold-Down Brackets
We understand the importance of a peaceful and serene environment. That’s why we offer the option to include hold-down brackets with your timber blinds. These brackets secure the blinds, preventing them from rattling in windy conditions.
Stack Height
When selecting timber venetians for your space, it’s crucial to consider the stack height. Stack height refers to the space the blinds occupy when fully lifted. For instance, a 2000mm high venetian blind typically takes up approximately 230mm of space when fully stacked. Taking stack height into account helps optimize space utilization in your home.
Customization Options for Perfect Fit
At SunGuard, we provide the flexibility to customize your timber venetian blinds according to your specific needs. We can tailor the blinds to widths as small as 250mm and maximum sizes up to 2700mm wide or 3000mm drop. All our timber blinds are supplied with colour-coordinated fascia, cords, and tapes, ensuring a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing look.

Venetian Blinds Maintenance
Maintaining your timber venetian blinds is essential to ensure their longevity and keep them looking their best. Here are some tips for maintaining and caring for your timber venetians:
Regular Dusting
Dusting your blinds regularly helps prevent the buildup of dirt and dust particles. You can use a soft cloth, feather duster, or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust from the slats.
Occasional Cleaning
For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth or sponge with a mild detergent solution to wipe down the slats. Be sure to wring out the cloth or sponge well to avoid excessive moisture on the wood. After cleaning, wipe the slats with a dry cloth to remove any remaining moisture.
Avoid Excessive Moisture
Timber blinds are susceptible to water damage, so it’s important to avoid excessive moisture. If you need to clean your blinds with water, make sure to dry them thoroughly afterward.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents on your timber blinds as they can damage the wood or the protective coatings. Stick to mild detergents or specially formulated wood cleaners recommended by the manufacturer.
By following these maintenance tips, you can extend the life of your timber venetian blinds and keep them looking beautiful for years to come. Regular cleaning, proper care, and addressing any issues promptly will ensure that your blinds continue to enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home.
