Perforated Window Graphics
Turn unused storefront glass into advertising space without blocking your view. Our perforated window graphics use thousands of tiny perforations to display a solid, full-color image from the outside, while staying transparent enough for people inside to see out.

How One-Way Viewing Works
60/40 Perforated Film
60/40 perforated adhesive-backed vinyl, applied to the outside of your window for a solid image from the street.
Eco-Friendly UV Ink
Fade-resistant printing keeps your graphic crisp and vibrant for years of outdoor exposure.
Peel-and-Stick Install
Adhesive backing applies directly to the outside of your window, no special tools required.
The material's black backing and perforation pattern mean that from the outside, your eye naturally focuses on the printed graphic; from the inside, you retain roughly 65% of your normal view through the window.
Sizes
Set up your art file at full print size; no bleed is necessary. For a 3' x 4' sign, that means building your file at 36" x 48". For best print quality, we recommend a minimum resolution of 100 ppi at full print size.
Most cities allow perforated window graphics under signage ordinances that restrict fully opaque window coverings, since visibility from inside is preserved. Check your local rules if you're unsure.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can people see out from the inside?
- Yes. The perforated design lets you retain roughly 65% of your normal view from inside, even though the graphic appears solid from the outside.
- Where does the graphic get applied?
- Perforated window graphics are applied to the outside of the window, with the perforated, printed side facing out.
- Will this comply with my city's signage rules?
- Most municipalities that restrict fully opaque window coverings allow perforated window film since it preserves visibility from inside. Check your specific local ordinance if you're unsure.
- Do I need to set up my art file with bleed?
- No bleed is necessary. Set your file up at full print size; for example, a 3' x 4' sign should be built at 36" x 48".
- Can I reuse a window graphic once it's removed?
- Exterior signs cannot be reused once removed. If you need a temporary interior graphic you plan to reuse, store it rolled with wax paper over the adhesive strips.
