Window Films & Hardware

Window film is a thin, adhesive layer applied to glass for: UV protection (blocks 99% of harmful rays) Heat reduction (improves energy efficiency) Privacy (frosted or reflective options) Glare reduction (ideal for TVs and workspaces)

Mount the rod 4–6 inches above the window frame to create the illusion of taller windows. For floor-length curtains, leave ½–1 inch clearance from the floor.

Extend the rod 4-10 inches wider than the window frame on each side to allow full coverage when curtains are open.

Basic tools include a drill, level, measuring tape, pencil, screwdriver, and wall anchors (for drywall or plaster).
