Transform Your Space with Commercial Window Tinting

Floor to ceiling windows are a staple of commercial building design – bathing your showroom or shop in natural light and making it feel welcoming and airy. However, this can be too much of a good thing, resulting in excessive heat, glare, and exposing back-of-house operations to the public. Commercial window tints enhance comfort and privacy, letting you take control of your space.

The Advantages of Window Films are Easy to See

  • More comfortable customers and happier employees – Commercial window films block heat and glare
  • Low-E window films save you money all year – Reduce your cooling needs in the summer and your heating in the winter!
  • High-transparency – Window films can be basically invisible, the only difference is your comfort!
  • Total Privacy – Transparency is great in business, but every window isn’t for public viewing! Mirrored and opaque window films provide complete privacy solutions.

Forget about taking dozens of fiddly measurements before heading out to a distant showroom. We come to you, take on-site measurements, and let you see exactly how the tint will look on your windows. There’s no need to simply imagine how it’ll look when you can know instead!

Comfort & Savings

Your employees and customers alike will thank you when they no longer have to stand squinting into the glare of the sun. And, since window tints block infrared light, your HVAC will have an easier time keeping your space comfortable – saving you money on your utility bills.

Privacy Where You Want It

Commercial spaces are built to be multifunctional – but this sometimes results in windows where they really aren’t desired. Our privacy window tints let you fully mirror or black out windows which are poorly situated for your business, without interfering with your design aesthetic or permanently modifying the space.

45 Years Of Honing Our Craft

Sun Shades has been in business for more than four decades now, helping business owners make their spaces more comfortable and usable. Over the years we’ve mastered our craft and you can expect our in-house installers to demonstrate time-won expertise when they measure, fit, and install your window tints.

Not Every Window Has to be Customer Facing

Each business has unique needs and it’s rare to find a commercial space which completely matches those needs. A common problem is that windows will open onto offices, backrooms, or storage areas – allowing customers to see behind the veil. Commercial window films allow you to preserve the visual integrity of these spaces, without making permanent modifications. In addition to mirrored and opaque tints, consider decorative window films which allow you to present custom branding to customers passing by!

Your Store Can Be Bright Without Being Hot!

Commercial windows don’t have to be a compromise – you can have large windows and a bright interior without having to deal with glare or uncomfortable heat. Tinted window films make for a cooler, more pleasant environment for your employees and customers while saving you money on your utility bills! Low-E window films reflect infrared light – keeping your space cool in the summer and trapping heat in the winter.

Commercial Window Tinting Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does window film really reduce heat?

Absolutely. Window films help to ensure that your work stays private and keeps your energy costs down. It literally pays for itself.

What tint blocks the most heat?

To block the most heat, you’ll want to use Infrared Rejection or Carbon Tint. That’s what we use, and it works like a charm!

Can a window film eliminate glare on my computer monitors?

Window films eliminate glare on all indoor surfaces, including computer monitors, phone and tablet screens, desks, and much more. If we install a commercial window film, you’re going to notice the difference immediately. And so will your customers.

 

What’s the difference between regular tint and ceramic tint?

While it may be the more affordable option, regular tinting isn’t always a best bet for your business in the long run. Ceramic tint lasts a lot longer and won’t wear down with occasional scratching like regular tints tend to do.

 

How long does Ceramic Tint last?

Our tints come with a 15 year warranty, so you can rest assured that they will last a long time for you and your business.

Very pleased

“We added vista window film to our living room and bedroom windows, all face East and the morning sun just bakes those rooms. Now much better with the tint, and we still have the great view of the lake. Very pleased with everyone involved, from our initial meeting with Jeff to the installation team of Erasmo and Drew. Great job!”

– Susan N.

Perfect

“Super experience. Got a quote quickly and install a couple of days later. They were on time and professional to a “T”. Using Sun Shades and Graphics was exactly what I was looking for, and the finished product was perfect for my sunroom. My installer, Drew, was friendly, professional and left the area spotless. I would highly recommend.”

– Lynn W.

Highly recommend

“Erasmo did a fabulous job of installing 7mil exterior film on our golf course facing windows. (hope it helps to prevent window breakage from errant golf shots). He was polite, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. I have used Sun Shades and Graphics before and am very pleased with this company. I highly recommend them!!”

– Pat R.

Wonderful

“Erasmo was wonderful. Came onsite to provide an estimate but also brought everything with him in case we said yes. They started work right away and were done in an hour. Had a UV tint put on a large window and had our entryway doors frosted. Will definitely use them again if we decide to tint more. They also gave me a quote while onsite for a patio screen.”

– Ryan R.

Feel the difference

“Nice work y’all! Had the Doors and Windows covered at mom’s Townhouse and am bummed that we did not do this sooner! You can even feel the difference now standing in their frames. Erasmo did a great job with the install.”

– Jeff S.
