Window Tinting for Double Hung Windows

Keep your classic double-hung windows cool, comfortable, and protected with our window films.

Double-hung windows bring classic style and practical ventilation to New Zealand homes and workplaces. However, they can also let in unwanted heat, glare, and UV rays that damage your interiors over time. Instant Tinting offers professional window tinting for double-hung windows, helping you reduce solar heat, protect furniture and flooring from fading, and maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round.
Our window films are applied directly to the glass surface of your double-hung windows, blocking up to 99% of harmful UV rays while still letting natural light into your space. From homes and units to offices, schools, and commercial buildings, our tinting solutions suit all types of double-glazing and single-pane joinery across New Zealand.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Yes. Window tinting can be applied to most double-hung windows in New Zealand, including both single-pane and double glazing. The film is applied to the inside glass surface, so it won’t affect the sash cord, pulleys, or how the window opens and slides.

    Costs vary based on the size of your windows, the type of film you choose, and how many windows need tinting. Factors like double glazing, frame style, and site access can also affect pricing. Contact us for an accurate, obligation-free quote based on your specific windows and location.

    The darkest tint available depends on the film type and your preferences. Unlike vehicle tinting, residential and commercial window films in New Zealand aren’t subject to specific nationwide darkness limits, although local regulations or building requirements may apply. Darker films reduce more light and can impact visibility, particularly at night. We offer a range of options, from clear films that maintain natural brightness to darker films for enhanced privacy and heat control.

    While DIY window film kits are available, we don’t recommend installing them yourself if you’re after a clean, long-lasting finish. Double hung windows can be particularly tricky due to their size, shape, and the need to work around frames and sashes. Without the right tools and experience, it’s easy to end up with bubbles, peeling, or uneven coverage. Our trained installers ensure a smooth, precise application, and all work is backed by a lifetime warranty on both film and workmanship.

    We use LLumar window films for all our residential and commercial tinting projects. LLumar is a globally trusted brand known for UV protection, heat rejection, optical clarity, and long-lasting performance. Their films are designed to suit New Zealand’s rapidly changing climate and are backed by our expert installation and lifetime warranty. We’ll recommend the right LLumar film based on your windows, budget, and performance needs.
