What Do Black Mountain Homeowners Look For in Window Treatments?

Black Mountain draws people who want mountain views without giving up walkable small-town charm, from the shops on Cherry Street to the trails around Lake Tomahawk. Many homes here sit on sloped lots with mountain views on one side and close neighbors on the other, which makes privacy and glare two separate problems to solve in the same room. AVL Window Blinds has installed window treatments throughout this Buncombe County town for years.


Homes on Black Mountain's ridges get strong afternoon sun that fades floors and furniture fast, while older cottages near downtown often have drafty original windows. Both problems have the same fix: insulating, UV-filtering shades chosen for the specific window. We typically recommend solar shades for the ridge-facing rooms and honeycomb shades for the older cottages, since the underlying problem in each case is different even though the symptoms look similar.


Whether your home looks out toward Montreat or sits a few blocks from Cherry Street, we measure every window in person. We'll also walk the exterior of your home to note where the sun hits hardest through the day, since that affects which rooms need UV protection most. Schedule your free consultation and we'll bring samples to your door.

Black Mountain Window Treatment Questions, Answered

  • Can motorized shades be added to a Black Mountain home after the original construction?

    Yes, motorized shades can be retrofitted into a Black Mountain home built years ago, since most systems run on battery or low-voltage wiring that doesn't require opening walls. We'll walk through your home during the consultation to confirm the best approach for your specific windows.

  • What window treatments work best for Black Mountain's mountain-view homes?

    Solar shades and motorized roller shades work best for Black Mountain's mountain-view homes because they cut glare and UV while keeping the view intact. AVL Window Blinds fits these to the large windows common on the town's ridge lots.

  • Can AVL Window Blinds fit custom shades to an older Black Mountain cottage?

    Yes, AVL Window Blinds regularly fits custom shades and blinds to Black Mountain's older cottages near downtown, measuring each window individually to account for settling and non-standard sizing common in older homes.

  • Do insulated shades help with drafts in a Black Mountain home?

    Yes, insulated honeycomb shades help reduce drafts in a Black Mountain home by trapping air against the glass, which matters most in older cottages with original single-pane windows.

  • How far in advance should I schedule a consultation before Black Mountain's busy season?

    We recommend scheduling your AVL Window Blinds consultation a few weeks ahead of Black Mountain's busiest spring and summer months, since custom orders typically take 3 to 6 weeks to arrive after measurement.
