Anti-neighborhood in the city: equip your windows with anti-visual film
A cost-effective and efficient solution!
Living in the city brings many little joys: the bakery down the street, the daily hustle and bustle, all within easy reach... But it also has its little shortcomings that can sometimes spoil your life: the neighborhood and, more particularly, your neighbours!
So you don't have to put up with this inconvenience day after day, we've come up with a solution that's easy to install, economical and instantly effective: anti-glare window film. There are 2 types of privacy film: frosted and one-way mirror. Here are their main characteristics:
The one-way mirror film
A must-have, one-way mirror window film is the most widely used solution for blocking prying eyes, as it's the only one that lets you keep the view outside while cutting off the view from outside to inside: you can see without being seen!
Ideal when you want to enjoy the outdoor scenery without anyone being able to see into your home. However, this film is ineffective at night, when the interior light is on. In the city, where the problem of overlooking is very common, many of you are turning to this solution, which can be installed very quickly, but which still requires the agreement of the co-owner, as the mirror effect modifies the external visual effect of the glass.
Face-to-face window film: frosted
You're bound to have seen it before: frosted film is recognizable by its main feature, which blurs the glass to give it a blurred effect. This window film is particularly appreciated for its ability to block glances, day or night, with or without the light on. You can apply it to all your glazing, or to a velux window in a bathroom or hallway, for example, in a room where it's not necessarily important to maintain a view of the outside world.
Some people also use it in a living room or bedroom, but only on the lower part of the glazing. In fact, you can cut this frosted vis-à-vis window film to any size you like!
Easy to apply, we recommend the white version for maximum effectiveness against both near and distant faces, or the translucent version, which lets almost 100% of the light through, but is best installed against distant faces.
