window film privacy night kansas city

Have you ever thought about what happens at your apartment building, office, or commercial property once you leave and lock up for the night? Studies show that robbers often observe buildings for weeks before breaking into them, waiting for the perfect moment.

But they won’t risk it if they don’t think the break in is worth it. Criminals are much more likely to break in to buildings with valuables that are in plain sight.

That’s why it’s important to take measures to protect the privacy of your property, both during the day at night. A lot of the time, people will install privacy window film in Kansas City for this purpose.

Privacy window films are known to be a great daytime solution, but most of them rely on the sunlight to create a reflection. Are there window films that provide privacy during the day? Here’s what you need to know.

Are There Privacy Window Films for Nighttime?

Simply put, yes. But they work a little bit differently than standard privacy films. Traditional privacy films rely on the sun. When the sunlight hits their surface, they create a reflection like a mirror. This prevents outsiders from seeing through the glass, but insiders can still see out.

Unfortunately, there are no privacy window films in Kansas City that are able to provide one-way visibility at night. But there are still a lot of great alternatives that can provide you with the nighttime privacy you need.

Alternative Options

Here are some window films that will provide you with some form of privacy during both the day and nighttime:

  • Decorative window film: uses patterns and designs to create privacy
  • Casper Cloaking Film: blocks LED light, concealing tv screens and computers
  • Perforated film: film with a whitish appearance that has small holes punched through it to provide natural light
  • Frosted film: Has an icy or frosted appearance that softens light and creates privacy
