Skylight Tinting

Atrium and monitor glazing takes the sun at its most direct angle. Overhead, that's both the hottest glass in the building and the only glass that can fall on someone.

Looking up at a run of skylight panels carrying heat-rejection film.

Skylight & Overhead Glazing

Daylight Without
The Heat Lamp

Nothing in a building takes the sun as squarely as roof glazing, which is why it runs hotter per square foot than any wall of windows. Underneath sits a moving pocket of heat, glare nobody can shade from below, and a bleached band travelling across whatever the sun happens to be crossing that hour.

Central Los Angeles has a great deal of it, and much of it is old. Original monitor roofs and sawtooth glazing in Arts District warehouses, banking-hall skylights in the historic core, and full-height atria in the eighties towers. On overhead glazing the safety argument leads: a laminate that holds a broken pane together is protecting the people underneath, not just the merchandise. Access is our problem — we bring the lifts and staging.

What Sets Us Apart

Why Businesses Choose
Window Films of Los Angeles

Overhead Safety First

Safety laminates hold a broken skylight together instead of letting it fall into an occupied space below.

Kills The Hot Spot

Sun straight down through glass is the hardest case there is, so it's where film gives back the most.

Stops The Sun Stripe

That travelling bleach line across the floor and the stock stops advancing once the ultraviolet is gone.

We Bring The Access

Boom lifts, towers, and rope access for atria and sloped glazing, all booked and insured by us.

Our Process

How It Works

01

Overhead Survey

We record the material, the pitch, the height, and how we'll get to it, then price it as one scope.

02

Film & Safety Spec

We specify the solar product and any safety laminate the position calls for against your actual glazing.

03

Access & Install

Access is rigged, the floor below is fully sheeted, and film goes up one panel at a time.

04

Clean & Confirm

Everything struck and cleared, a review from ground level, and the overhead warranty logged.
