Day and night privacy
Only frosted and blackout film give privacy at night. Reflective film flips to a mirror on the inside once your lights are on. We tell every customer this before they buy.
Keeping the light
Frosted film lets most of the daylight through, so bathrooms and corridors stay bright. For a view, choose reflective film and add blinds.
Fitting
We clean the glass, wet apply the film and trim it to the frame. A whole house is usually done in a day.
What a two bedroom flat in Kilimani might cost
Take a two bedroom flat on a busy road in Kilimani. The neighbours across can see straight in. Here is one way to cover it, using frosted film at KSh 799 per metre on a 1.2 metre roll and reflective film at KSh 999 per metre.
| Window | Film | Film needed | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathroom, 0.6 x 0.9 m | Frosted | 1 m | KSh 799 |
| Master bedroom, 1.8 x 1.2 m | Frosted | 2 m | KSh 1,598 |
| Second bedroom, 1.8 x 1.2 m | Frosted | 2 m | KSh 1,598 |
| Kitchen, 1.5 x 1.0 m | Frosted | 2 m | KSh 1,598 |
| Living room, 2.4 x 1.4 m | Reflective | 3 m | KSh 2,997 |
That comes to KSh 8,590 for the film. Fitting is quoted per house on WhatsApp. The living room keeps its view in the day. The bedrooms and bathroom stay private around the clock.
Mistakes that leave you exposed
- Reflective film in the bedroom. It hides you in daylight. At night, with your light on, people outside can see in. Read why one way film fails at night before you choose.
- Frosting the whole living room. You lose the view you pay rent for. Frost the lower half or use reflective film instead.
- Measuring the frame. Measure the glass you can see, width first, then height.
- Forgetting the door. A glass balcony door is often the biggest gap in your privacy.
- DIY on a huge pane. Small windows are easy. A 2 metre pane is hard to get bubble free alone.
One more: skipping the staircase window. In maisonettes and townhouses, the window on the stairs often looks straight into the next house. It is small and cheap to frost, so do it with the rest.
Film for renters
Most Nairobi tenants cannot drill for blinds. Film is a good answer because it sticks to the glass with no screws. When you move out it peels off. Any glue left cleans off with soapy water. It is still kind to tell your landlord or caretaker before you start.
If you want more cover at night in a bedroom, film works well with a blind. See our bedroom blinds for options that fit inside the frame. Short stay hosts can look at blinds for Airbnb units too.
Film also suits hostels and shared houses where each tenant wants privacy in their own room without changing the whole building.

Clear photos save a site visit for small jobs. Stand back so the whole window shows, then take a close up of one corner of the frame. That tells us the type of glass and how the film will sit.
