Marine Solar & Security Films

New and exciting….. Smashgard are now offering all boat owners the opportunity of experiencing something new in the Marine world. The installation of Smashgard Solar or Security films to the glass windows of your boat will give you endless benefits, providing privacy and security, dramatically reducing in the summer and providing warmth in the winter with our Heat retention films.
Allowing unrestricted views out onto the water and surrounding countryside yet providing privacy from neighbouring boat owners or more importantly; towpath walkers, The need for net curtains and blinds closed in the day to stop this form of invasion is a thing of the past. Not forgetting the truly outstanding appearance, complementary comments from fellow boat owners are the norm and an exciting talking point amongst the boating fraternity.

With over 300 films available to us varying in shades, colours and specifications, listed are the most beneficial films that have been popular installations among our customers.

Reflective Silver

This highly reflective Silver film provides the maximum in privacy to boat owners, portraying a one way mirror finish allowing the occupants to see out as normal yet preventing those outside from seeing in. Security is gained as the film prevents those intent on seeing in from viewing items of value and more importantly, if the boat is occupied or not.
Heat and Glare is dramatically reduced in the summer months by as much as 82% and will allow the interior to maintain a pleasant and relaxing temperature. Ultraviolet will reduce fading of fabrics and furnishings by 98%


AG 25 Gold Heat Retention Film

A specialist film manufactured specifically to retain heat within the winter months; AG25 will reduce heat loss through the glass by an amazing 28%. An energy efficient film, heating can be drastically reduced from heating systems within the cabin saving on heating costs yet will provide almost the same privacy and security benefits as that of the Silver 20 films. Rejecting Heat and Glare in the summer by as much as 70%, this film will give all round protection 12 months of the year.
Portraying a Gold appearance from the outside, this film will suit any application and is further enhanced if installed to Boats with a gold framework, as shown in the picture.


Neutral Film

Our neutral films are highly recommended for those that require privacy and security without a drastic change to the appearance from the outside. Privacy will be gained from towpath walkers glancing in through the windows yet unfortunately it will still allow those to see in if pressing against the glass, therefore for maximum privacy we recommend the Silver & AG films. Internally, it is almost impossible to distinguish that an after market film has been applied and therefore will not effect any light levels within the cabin. Heat and Glare will be reduced by up to 62% whilst fading will again be reduced by 98% due to the UV inhibitors found in all our films.

Notice the difference neutral films has made to the windows of the boat to the left of the picture, compared to the standard window / net curtain set up found on most boats and shown to the boat on the right.

Other than the most popular films mentioned above, we also have films suited for a variety of requirements including Frosted films for bathrooms, external films for windows not accessible from the inside and our Security window films that will strengthen the existing glass of your boat to withstand attacks from an array of weapons, preventing entry.
