Does anybody know the best way to blackout a shop window so you can see out but not in?

Question

I want to make it pretty much impossible to see in but i would still like to be able to see out. I also want the added security of making it harder to smash the glass. If you can recommend a certain product do you know where i can get it in the UK?

Answer 1

You put a film onto the inside of the window to allow daylight in, but not allow light out, we have used this and from outside it looks normal, but you can't see in.

At night if the light is on inside, but it is dark outside, they can see in, but you can't see out, this is the case with normal glass as well.

For security, the best reasonably cheap glass is laminated, most shops use it, but to make it even more secure you can get a clear security film to apply inside the window.

As the security film is clear, it might be possible to apply both the security film to the glass, and the one way film to the security film.

This company sells both films, talk to them about your requirements.
