Hi

I am having problems with the glare coming through my office window and I think I may need some sort of anti glare protection on the window - anyone able to advise me on this?

Cheers

Ken

Hi Ken,

There are all sorts of films that can be applied to reduce glare, create privacy even protect against flying glass in the event of an explosion.  We just installed some privacy film ourselves on a couple of windows, buying the film from http://www.abodewindowfilms.co.uk/

Hi Ken,

One of our clients is a company specialising in window films (see the link below for his website) - Nigel Belgrave (Shades Window Films).

He's very good and you can order samples via the website.

Kindest Regards,

Sammi

Alternatively you could simply install window blinds.  These are much easier to remove when the sun is less strong and you want more natural light.

Perhaps you should speak to Timbuk 3

Alternatively check out anti glare screen protectors - perhaps costs less than preventing the sunlight!

Ken a carefully designed shading device fixed externally could control glare and reduce any over heating indoors if the window is southerly.
