Window Film Choices

 

With this option, there will be choices of all metal, safety, privacy and decorative films. Remember, all we can do is recommend a window film for the situation you are giving us. We cannot refund your money for custom cut  films but will replace any film  that is delivered defective.
The final decision is up to you. 

In order to effectively compare performance and make a purchasing decision, your true requirements need to be established. For example, if glare or daytime privacy is a primary consideration, then you will want to buy a film that has a lower visible light transmission (VLT).

On the other hand, in the case of a large storefront or situation where the film needs to be neutral, then you would want to pick a film with a higher visible light transmission.

The factors you may want to consider are:

  • Visible light transmission

  • Total solar energy rejected

  • Visible light reflected 

  • Aesthetic considerations

  • Ultraviolet radiation rejection

We will send you samples of the actual film. Fill out the form below after you have reviewed the sections.
