Centennial Hills Service Area
Centennial Hills covers the northwest corner of the City of Las Vegas. Its neighborhoods face the Spring Mountains to the west and the open desert of Tule Springs to the north. Those views come with strong afternoon sun. We bring a free in-home measure and samples to Centennial Hills homes. Call (702) 237-4401 to book.
For west-facing windows that look toward the Spring Mountains, solar shades and exterior solar screens are usually the best fit. They cut glare and heat while keeping the view. Bedrooms and street-facing rooms usually suit plantation shutters or blackout cellular shades. Tall two-story glass is easier to manage with motorized shades. A free in-home measure matches each window to its orientation and use. Call (702) 237-4401.
Northwest Las Vegas was named Centennial Hills on January 17, 2001, after a public naming contest. The area covers more than a third of the city's land. Its boundaries run roughly from Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument and the Paiute reservation on the north, to Lower Kyle Canyon and Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area on the west, to Summerlin on the south and North Las Vegas on the east. Lone Mountain sits inside the neighborhood. The area is centered on the I-11/US 95 and 215 Beltway interchange known as the Centennial Bowl.
Residents know the landmarks: Centennial Hills Hospital on Durango, Centennial Hills Park and Library, Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, and the trailheads into Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument. Those open spaces and the mountain backdrop shape how people use their windows. Most homeowners want to keep the view and lose the glare.
In Centennial Hills, the Spring Mountains fill the western skyline, and the windows that face them get the hottest sun of the day. A west-facing family room or primary bedroom can be very bright from mid-afternoon until sunset. Covering it with an opaque product hides the reason you bought the lot.
The DOE Building America Solution Center explains why exterior shading generally outperforms interior shading for solar heat gain.
Much of Centennial Hills was built as the valley grew to the northwest this century. Many homes are production-built one- and two-story houses, often in HOA communities. That creates a few common window situations:
Basic vinyl or aluminum blinds installed at closing often warp, yellow, or lose slats in the sun after several summers. Replacing them room by room with custom blinds or shades is a common first project.
Upper windows above a family room are hard to reach and often catch direct sun. Motorized shades with a remote or a schedule handle them without a ladder.
Backyard sliders get heavy daily use. Vertical blinds, panel-track shades, or a wide solar roller shade keep the door easy to use while controlling sun on the patio side.
| Room | Typical goal | Often recommended |
|---|---|---|
| West-facing family room | Keep the mountain view, cut glare | Solar shades, exterior solar screens |
| Primary bedroom | Darkness and privacy | Blackout cellular or roller shades, shutters |
| Front rooms facing the street | Privacy and a uniform look | Plantation shutters, faux wood blinds |
| Loft or upstairs office | Screen glare | Light-filtering or solar roller shades |
| Kids' rooms | Safety and sleep | Cordless or motorized blackout shades |
For children's rooms, the CPSC recommends cordless window coverings. The Window Covering Safety Council has more guidance for families.
Many Centennial Hills neighborhoods have homeowner associations with architectural guidelines. Those rules can cover exterior items such as solar screens, including the frame and mesh colors that are allowed. Interior products are rarely restricted, but some associations also care about the color seen from the street. Before ordering exterior screens, get your association's current guidelines or approval form. We can provide product specifications and color samples for your submittal. See our HOA-friendly window coverings study for more.

Use solar shades indoors, exterior solar screens, or both. Solar fabrics let you see out while they cut glare. Darker colors generally give a clearer view, and the weave controls how much light gets through.
It depends on your association. Many HOAs regulate exterior items, including screen frame and mesh colors. Check your current architectural guidelines or approval form before ordering. We can provide specification sheets and color samples for your submittal.
Most homeowners replace them room by room. Faux wood blinds or shutters go in the front rooms, blackout shades in the bedrooms, and solar shades on view windows. The free measure helps you decide what to do first.
Yes. Tall windows are measured during the in-home visit. Motorized shades are a common choice because they can be raised and lowered without a ladder.
