WASHINGTON — Commercial Window Shield has been hired by HITT for a decorative window film installation project in the nation’s capital.

HITT will be doing a complete, high-end build out of two floors of an office building at 1201 New York Ave. NW. for their client, Biotechnology Innovative Organization [Bio].

Commercial Window Shield will be installing two types of regular privacy/decorative film as well as a custom gradient decorative film on all interior office and conference room fronts. In total, the company will be installing more than 5,000 sq. ft. of decorative film on the glass.

The budgeting process for this project began 18 months ago. Bids for the decorative film portion of the project were competitive. Commercial Window Shield was the successful bidder.

HITT will begin construction in September. Installation of the privacy/decorative films will start sometime this winter. As always, Commercial Window Film will work closely with other sub-contractors to coordinate their schedules.

The company has a long-standing relationship with HITT, having completed numerous window film installation projects over many years.

In addition to HITT, Commercial Window Shield has a long history working with other top general contractors, including Davis Construction, Rand construction, D Watts, Harvey-Cleary and Gilbane Building Co.

The company’s major focus has been security and solar control window film installation. But in addition to privacy/decorative films the company also is expert in installing smart/switchable, Radio Frequency [RF], anti-bird strike and polycarbonate protective glass systems.

Its clients have included the U.S. Capitol, FBI headquarters, the Pentagon, all House of Representative and Library of Congress buildings, Grand Central Terminal, Merrill Lynch headquarters, the United Nations, the Willis [former Sears] Tower, O’Hare and Seattle international airports, and the Philadelphia and Denver mints.
