French windows and doors became popular in the 17th century as Renaissance architects fell in love with symmetry and proportionality. Today, they are found in many American homes. French windows and doors are often characterized by elaborate designs and muntins, or dividers, between the panes. This makes applying home window tinting for French doors and windows a challenge that should only be tackled by the best installers. Before installing window tinting and film to your French doors and windows, make sure you know the options. Here are four points to consider before you chose an installer for home window tinting for French doors and windows.

Installation Time
A number of factors determine how long it takes to install window film or tinting. These include the size of the glass to be covered and the type of tint or film to be installed. Installing film for French doors and windows can be a lengthy process. Unlike standard windows and doors, French windows and doors have individual panels separating the glass. The film is individually cut and installed onto each glass pane, increasing the installation time. If you want home window film installed on French windows or doors, contact a professional installer such as Window Tint USA. Make sure you allow enough time for the installers to do a careful, precise install.

When you select a window film installation company, ask for details on the process and costs.
