The Problem
Large sliders and French doors let in heat, glare, and UV that fade floors and rugs.
Curtains over doors are inconvenient because you walk through them every day.

Solar Window Film for Sliding Glass Doors in LA
Your biggest pane of glass is also your biggest heat source.
Quick Answer
A standard sliding glass door has 30–40 square feet of glass, making it one of the largest sources of heat gain in a home. Solar film blocks 40–70% of that heat and 99% of UV while keeping the backyard view clear. Filming a typical slider in Los Angeles costs around $250–$500, and safety-rated films add shatter protection too.
Our Solution
We install clear solar film on door glass so you keep the view and easy access.
Ask about combo films that add both heat rejection and safety protection.
Why It Matters in Los Angeles
Indoor-outdoor living is standard in LA, so most homes have multiple large glass doors facing yards and pools.
Doors facing pools also catch reflected sun and glare.
