ABOUT ONSIGHT

About OnSight Window Films

A Rochester window film company focused on one thing: architectural film for homes and buildings.

OUR STORY

A Rochester Company Built on Window Film

OnSight Window Films LLC was founded in Rochester, NY with a simple goal: to do architectural window film properly. With more than 20 years of experience, we specialize exclusively in architectural glass for residential and commercial properties, including solar control, privacy, decorative, safety and security applications. We don’t tint cars—we focus on understanding flat glass, the space around it, and the specific needs of each property. We also work with Johnson Window Films to provide quality film solutions selected for each project.

Every project starts with a conversation and an on-site look at your windows. We consider the glass, natural light, room conditions, and the problem you’re trying to solve before recommending a solution. From first call to finished glass, we guide you through the process—from understanding your goals and assessing the property to selecting the appropriate film and completing the installation. Our approach is straightforward: recommend what makes sense for your property and goals, including telling you when window film may not be the right answer.

FILMS WE INSTALL

Johnson Window Films

We install Johnson Window Films — a family-owned manufacturer making window film since 1973, with every film made in the USA by Madico, Inc. These are the film families we choose from for homes and buildings.

SOLAR CONTROL

Sunlight

Spectrally selective film with high visible light and strong heat rejection — a bright, clear look for storefronts, offices and homes.

Palisade

Nano-ceramic construction and one of Johnson’s highest-performing films, with a view that stays unchanged day and night.

Night Scape

Dual-reflective with low interior reflectivity and good heat retention — Johnson notes it’s a popular choice in colder climates.

ScenicView · Daylight Natural

Dual-reflective and sputtered-metal films that balance hot spots and won’t fade; Daylight Natural is Johnson’s most popular flat-glass film.

Solar Silver · Sunset Bronze

Reflective silver and warm bronze films for sun-drenched glass, skylights, sunrooms and commercial facades.

DECORATIVE & PRIVACY

White Frost

Semi-transparent frosted film for privacy, interior design and soft, diffused light.

White Out · Blackout

Opaque white or black films for complete privacy where glass needs to be fully covered.

UV Clear

Doesn’t change the look of the glass while blocking 98% of UV, per the manufacturer.

Printable Films

Clear and white films that sign makers can print on, turning a window into branded graphics.

Architectural Colors

Reflective blue, green and gold films that transform and unify a building’s facade.

SAFETY & PROTECTIVE

Trident

Safety and security films that bond to glass and hold it in place if it breaks — clear or solar-shaded, in several thicknesses.

Trident 7 mil+

Thicker constructions Johnson rates for forced entry, extreme weather, seismic and blast hazards.

Defendor

Clear anti-graffiti film that takes paint and etching damage and is peeled off and replaced instead of the glass.
