Do you have window to be tinted over a stairwell?

For example this window has 2 glass panels.

Does your window/door have a textured or rippled surface?

Window tint requires flat interior glass. But many windows have textured or patterned surfaces. To check if your window is suitable for tint, run your hand across the glass feeling for any rough or textured surfaces.

Do you have windows located more than 3.6m above floor level?

You can measure this from the floor below the glass to the top of the glass frame.

How many glass panes does your window have?

For example this window has 2 glass panes.

*If you have more than 10 panes please add this as two separate windows/doors.

Is there existing tinting on the glass?

There are a few easy ways to check if your window already has a tint.

First, you can look at the edge of the glass to see if there is a cut line. This is a small gap where the film doesn’t quite reach the frame.
Second, look for bubbling and flaking on the interior side of the glass.
Third, use a blade to see if you can make a small scratch in the corner of the glass. If there is a film, then this surface will be easy to mark.

The width of the glass pane is the length in millimetres (mm) from left to right. The height is the distance from top to bottom. You can print and use the attached PDF document to record your results.

Tips for measuring

We cut the window film to your measurements, so it’s important to be as accurate as possible. Don’t worry though – we will add an extra 20mm to your measurements before we cut to allow for minor errors!

Here are some tips to help you get the correct measurements:

Always record each glass pane separately do not include the frame, only the glass.
For square and rectangular panes, the measurement is straight forward.
For odd-shaped or curved windows, measure the widest and highest section. If you’re unsure, more is better.
The installer will apply the window film on the interior of the window, so this is what you should measure.
Use a long and flexible, tape measure, if possible. Try to avoid using a ruler or a short tape measure as your measurement may be inaccurate.
For large windows, ask for help. No man is an island!

Check for cracks and defects.

Window film can cause existing defects to lengthen during cold or warm periods. Window film is for glass windows only. Perspex and other synthetic surfaces are not suitable for window tint.

Maximum window film sizes

The maximum window film roll size is:

1524mm for our Frosted and Blockout films; and
1828mm for our Charcoal and Mirrored Solar Control films.

Don’t worry, we can still tint glass panes that exceed the maximum roll size but a seam join will be required when applying the window film If you’re unsure on how to measure, that’s fine. We are experts, so please let us know if we can help.

How to tell what window frame you have.

The frame is the part of the window that holds the glass in place. Most window frames are wood, aluminium or a combination of both. If your frame is a combination, then select the primary material. Need more help?
