WASHINGTON – Commercial Window Shield has been hired by rand Construction for a multi-faceted window film installation project in the nation’s capital.
For client the Association of American Medical Colleges [AAMC], rand will be renovating nine floors of an AAMC-occupied building at 655 K St. NW.
As part of the renovation process, Commercial Window Shield will be installing the following window films:
- Reed. A stylistic decorative film resembling bamboo will be installed on select glass fronts and doors. The film, a less expensive option than reeded glass, provides complete privacy.
- Solar control. The south side of one of the building’s floors is exposed to significant sun exposure resulting in uncomfortable and inefficient heat gain. Installation of a solar control window film will neutralize the sun exposure and restore the area’s out-of-sync climate control system to normal.
- Decorative. The company will install a 6-inch frosted decorative band of film on a number of glass fronts throughout the building.
- Safety and security. Commercial Window Shield will install this shatter-resistant window film on the glass in the building’s property management’s entryway to prevent any break-ins.
Commercial Window Shield installers will begin their work later this fall and work closely with on-site rand project managers and sub-contractors to ensure a seamless window film installation process.
The company and rand have worked together on numerous window film installation projects in recent years. Commercial Window Shield, recognized as one of the country’s leading installers of all types of window films, has a long history working with some of the country’s top general contractors.
The company has also completed security, solar control, radio frequency [RF], switchable smart, decorative/privacy window and bird safety film projects for DAVIS, CK Commercial, Harvey-Cleary, HITT, Gilbane Building Co., Watts Construction, DPR Construction and May Construction.
