Perforated one-way vision film printed with coffee cups on a café window

One-way vision film is perforated self-adhesive vinyl, printed on its outer face and black behind, that shows a full-colour image to people outside while letting those inside see out through the holes.

Reasons to choose one-way vision film in Dundee

  • Salons in Dundee can show bold imagery to passers-by in daylight without clients feeling on display in the chair.
  • Ground-floor offices facing a Dundee pavement get daytime privacy from the print, while staff can still see out.
  • Letting agents marketing empty units in Dundee can dress the glass so the frontage looks cared for and keeps its daylight.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Dundee

Two questions, two sets of rules. On whether window graphics count as advertising, Scottish councils take differing approaches; internal graphics are often outside control or allowed, but large graphics on listed shopfronts or in conservation areas can be restricted. On safety, glazing that could be walked into must be marked, which Scotland's own building guidance addresses and which the Workplace Regulations 1992 (regulation 14) require at work where necessary. We check with the council when the building or street calls for it, and set the marking heights out on the proof for one-way vision film.

One-way vision film in Dundee: questions

Who carries out the work on one-way vision film in Dundee?

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

When could work on one-way vision film go ahead in Dundee?

Fitting is typically scheduled once three things are in place: you have approved the proof, the materials are made or delivered, and any consent the job needs has been granted. For many jobs that is typically a few weeks from approval; illuminated or larger fabricated signs typically take longer, and consent decisions run to their own timetable.

Is one-way vision allowed on a van's rear window?

Generally, yes, provided the vehicle has two exterior mirrors so the driver can see behind. The windscreen must let through at least 75 per cent of light and front side windows at least 70 per cent, so graphics never go there.

Can people see in through one-way vision?

In daylight, not easily: people outside see the print while you see out. After dark, with lights on inside, the film becomes see-through from the street and the image fades. For evening privacy, add blinds or use solid graphics in that area.

Is there a guide price for one-way vision film in Dundee?

Yes: £32–£62 per m² + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

What image resolution does one-way vision need?

Around 100 dpi at the finished printed size is usually enough, because the perforations soften fine detail and the window is seen from a distance. Logos and text should be vector files. If an image is too small, we say so at the artwork check.
