One Way Window Film

Reflective "mirror" film is primarily a solar control window film which happens to have the added feature of doubling up as a privacy film.

This is the perfect window film product were "one-way" daytime privacy is required through external facing windows. Outward vision is unobstructed while inward vision is obscured. Ideal as a visual security safeguard to protect personnel & equipment from prying eyes.

The School have used Lustalux on 3 recent occasions and each time the service was prompt, efficient and represented excellent value for money. The product has proved durable and it still looks like new which is a fair indication of the quality of materials and the methods used. I would have no reservations whatsoever in recommending Lustalux to any organisation - we will certainly use them again.

How does one way / two way glass film work?

"One Way" film gives glass the capability to act as a one way mirror with surrounding light conditions dictating how the mirror effect will work. The reason why these windows appear mirrored from the outside, yet can be viewed through from the inside is due to their metalised coating & the differential in external & internal light frequencies.

Here is how one way film & glass is usually portrayed in films & on TV - note that one side is much more brightly lit than the other.

Contra one-way window film

There is a common misconception that depending on which side of the window the film is applied, determines where the mirror effect is achieved. The truth is that EVERYTHING depends on which side is the brightest.

Privacy

Another added benefit of this type of window film is the added privacy it offers to your building. Offering complete mirrored reflection during daytime hours, this window film aids in keeping prying eyes from viewing confidential documents or processes.

“One Way” film works best for privacy during the day. For the most effective privacy & business security throughout both light & dark hours, we recommend opaque, frosted window film.
