What this service covers.
Switchable smart film is PDLC laminated into or applied onto glass. Powered on it is clear; powered off it turns opaque. One panel gives you a window when you want one and a wall when you need one, with no blinds to clean and nothing to draw.
We install switchable film on doors, partitions and windows across Coquitlam, Maple Ridge and the Lower Mainland, on new glass or as a retrofit to existing panels.

-
Instant privacy
A switch, a remote or a wall control takes the panel from clear to opaque immediately, useful for meeting rooms and consulting rooms.
-
No blinds to maintain
Nothing to dust, nothing to tangle, nothing hanging in front of the glass, which matters in clinical and clean environments.
-
Light without exposure
Opaque film still transmits light. The room stays bright while the view through it is gone.
-
Retrofit possible
Applied film can go onto existing glass, so you do not always need to replace the panel to get the function.

Common questions about switchable smart film.
Something not covered here? Call +1-778-69-ALPHA (25742) or send us a photo of the job.
Is it clear or opaque when the power is off?
Opaque. Standard PDLC film is clear only while powered, so a power cut leaves the glass private rather than transparent, worth knowing when you decide where to use it.
Can it be added to glass I already have?
Applied film can be, if the panel is suitable and accessible. Laminated film has to be built into the glass, so that means a new panel. We will tell you which route your glass allows.
Does it need wiring?
Yes, it needs a power supply and a switch, so the wiring route is part of the planning. We work that out at the site visit before quoting.
How is it cleaned?
Like normal glass, with a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid scrapers and harsh solvents, particularly on applied film.
