Need window/screen privacy help, ASAP...!!!

[Car Guy]

Laura's apartment (my 'home' for the time being) located on ground level has patio doors (76" x 68") and a large bedroom window(s) (70" x 47"), both with screens. I would like to place a 'one-way' material on the glass and something on the screens to increase privacy. This is at the top of my do list after this morning's incident with overly inquisitive potential renters interested in OTHER units.....:guns1

This is a project I could easily handle but would pay a professional to do if the price was reasonable. I assume one-way window material is similar to window tint film but have never heard of a one-way material to place over screens.....


Any help is much appreciated...!!!

Menards has privacy window treatments. Its just like tint. mirrored, smoked.....

Yep Menards has that stuff. It should be located in the paint & wall coverings department if i remember correctly.

Thanks for the input; I will look to see what is available tomorrow. One-way window film is more prevalent than I expected but finding something for the screens is proving MUCH more difficult. Please reply if you have any knowledge of one-way window screen filters.....

Yes, that is one option I am considering.....

Be careful if the windows are thermo panes or double pane or anything like that you need to put the tint on the outside. If you put it on the inside sometimes it will heat up the gas inbetween the panes and blow out the seals.

After much online research I found a few websites selling one-way screen material, and the price is.....:eek:

I will check into this, buying new windows is NOT an option......

Since it's an apartment, I'd make sure that whatever you do can be removed.

In all of my apartments I've just used blinds and never had any issues.
