Installation services
Window graphics for shops, offices and services
A shop window can carry your offer and build recognition around the clock, also when the premises are closed. We print the film, prepare it for installation and apply it on site.
Which films we use
We use several film types, depending on the effect you want.
- One Way Vision (OWV). Full-colour advertising on the glass while people inside can still see the street. The film is micro-perforated: from outside it looks like a solid print, from inside like slightly tinted glass. Suited where the window should advertise, but not become a wall. See OWV film →.
- Monomeric vinyl. Economical film for shop windows and boards. See monomeric vinyl →.
- Transparent film. Logo and text without a background, like painting on the glass. See transparent film →.
- Frosted film. Matte finish for privacy and a clean look. See frosted window film →.
- EasyDot. Seasonal window graphics that are easy to apply and remove. See EasyDot film →.
How the job runs
Send a photo of the window and roughly how large the glass is. We come to measure on site and confirm the dimensions before printing. Usually 3–5 days after the artwork is approved; if it is urgent, write to us, we can often do it faster.
How much does window film installation cost?
The price depends on the film type, window area, number of panes, access to the place, possible removal of old graphics, and whether you need print only or installation as well.
Installation is quoted individually
For a quote, send a photo of the window, approximate pane dimensions, the effect you want and whether there is old film on the glass to remove. From that we prepare a material proposal and a quote.
If you have a lower quote from a competitor for the same product and specification, email it to us — we will do our best to match the price.
Prefer to apply it yourself?
You can order just the printed film cut to size. This makes sense for smaller, simple graphics and smooth glass. For large graphics, windows with divisions, OWV film or outdoor installation mistakes are easier to make, so consider installation by an experienced person.
Before application the glass should be clean, dry and degreased. Pay attention to temperature, dust, moisture, edges, seals and elements protruding from the glass. For larger formats a second person is needed.
Frequently asked questions
Does the film damage the glass?
No. The self-adhesive films we use are meant for glass and can be removed without leaving adhesive. When taken off after several years a light mark can remain; a standard glass cleaner is enough.
Can the glass be covered from the inside?
Yes, but not every film. We apply OWV only from the outside, because the effect 'visible from the street, see-through from inside' works only when the graphic faces outward. Transparent and frosted film can be applied from the inside, although outside installation is more durable.
Should old film be removed first?
Yes. We never apply new film over old. If there is existing film on the window we can remove it before the new installation. Removal is quoted separately, depending on area and condition; old, brittle film takes longer. Tell us in your enquiry that there is something to remove.
How long does the film last?
It depends on the film type, the position and the exposure to sun and rain. Films applied from the inside last longer, because they are not exposed to rain and sun. If the graphic has to stay for a long time, tell us and we will suggest a suitable film.
Do you cover all of Wrocław?
Yes, we cover Wrocław and the surrounding area. Travel is included in the installation quote.
Do you also prepare the artwork?
If you have a finished file, we print from it. If you need a design, say so in your enquiry; we quote it together with printing and installation.
What sizes can be covered?
We print film up to 160 cm wide in one piece. Larger windows are covered with several strips; we join them so that the seam is not visible from a normal distance.
Does frosted film protect the glass?
Yes, frosted film is fully safe for glass and protects it from accidental scratches. It can be removed at any time; with professional removal the glass looks like new.
In what weather can windows be covered?
For outdoor application we need at least 10°C and no rain, because the adhesive has to bond with the surface. Inside premises we apply film all year round.
Do you install at night?
Yes. For shopping centres or busy streets we often install at night or early in the morning so as not to disturb traffic or the building.
How should the glass be prepared?
The glass just must not be covered in a thick layer of mud. On site we always degrease it with specialist products so the graphic holds firmly.
How long does it take?
Usually 3–5 days after the artwork is approved. If it is urgent, write to us; we can often do it faster.
