Glass that goes private the moment you need it.
Smart View installs switchable smart glass and PDLC smart film across Southern California. One tap — on the wall switch, your phone, or your voice — and your windows, partitions, or shower glass turn from clear to frosted.
What is switchable smart glass? Switchable smart glass — and PDLC smart film — is glass that changes from clear to frosted on demand. Power it on and it turns transparent; cut the power and it goes private in under a second (here's how it works). Smart View fabricates and installs both across the Los Angeles metro: smart film for glass you already have, and laminated smart glass panels for new construction and remodels.
Your glass makes you choose: the view, or your privacy.
Big windows and glass walls are why you love your space — but they leave you exposed to the street, the neighbors, and the afternoon sun. Every usual fix costs you something: blinds and curtains hide the view and collect dust, frosted glass is private but permanent, and tint just makes the room darker.
Glass that's clear when you want it, private when you don't.
Smart glass and smart film switch from crystal-clear to fully frosted in under a second — one tap on a switch, your phone, or your voice. Keep the view and the daylight when you want them; get instant, total privacy the moment you need it. No blinds, no curtains, no compromise.
Three products. One promise: privacy on demand.
Everything we install switches between clear and frosted. The only question is whether we upgrade the glass you have, or build it in new.
PDLC Smart Film
For the glass you already have. We apply switchable film to existing windows, partitions, and shower enclosures — no demolition, usually done in a day.
Smart Glass Panels
For new construction and remodels. Laminated glass with the switchable layer built in — conference walls, doors, exterior windows, room dividers.
Smart Glass Picture Window
For new and replacement windows. Factory-built insulated units — the ML76S and ML85S — with the switchable layer laminated inside an aluminum frame. Clear for the view, frosted at the touch of a button.
From first call to first switch-flip.

We measure & quote
On-site measurement, a written quote with materials and installation separated, and a clear timeline. No surprises.
Install day — then privacy in one tap
Most smart film retrofits finish in a single day. We wire the controls, pair the app, and hand you the switch.
What actually happens when you press the button.
A real Smart View install — press the remote and the glass switches from clear to private in under a second.
1 You press the remote
One tap on the handheld remote — or a wall switch, the app, or your voice assistant. They all send the same signal.
2 The concealed transformer powers on
A hidden 60V AC transformer — tucked in the wall or ceiling — sends low-voltage current to the film's edge connectors.
3 The crystals align — glass clears
Current aligns the liquid crystals in the PDLC layer and the panel turns transparent. Cut the power, and it's instantly private again.
