Quick answer

A VitraGuard glass safety film job has two clearly separated parts: film supply from AED 117/m² (delivery included, 15 m² minimum) and installation, quoted after a site survey, with 5% UAE VATon top. You get an instant approximate estimate from the calculator, then a confirmed quote once we’ve seen the glass. No hidden numbers, no "approximate" figure dressed up as a final price.

Glass with and without VitraGuard safety film

Ask most Dubai installers "how much is safety film?" and you’ll be told to book a visit before you get a number. That’s not always evasive (installation genuinely varies by building), but it leaves you unable to budget. VitraGuard splits the price into the part we can publish and the part that honestly needs a survey, and shows you both.

The two parts of every quote

Keeping supply and installation separate is the whole point. It’s what lets us publish a real starting price without pretending installation is one-size-fits-all.

Film supply is a published per-square-metre rate; installation is confirmed after a survey because it depends on your building, window count, and access. Figures are pre-VAT; 5% is added at checkout/quote.

Why installation needs a survey

Applying film to ten easy-access ground-floor windows is a very different job from the same area spread across a stairwell, a west-facing façade, or high-level glazing that needs access equipment. Charging a single flat rate would mean over-charging simple jobs and under-quoting hard ones. So installation is scoped honestly against your facility type, the number and accessibility of windows, and the complexity per pane, which is exactly what the survey establishes.

How a job actually flows

  1. Estimate it yourself. Use the pricing calculator. Enter your glass area and it returns an approximate film-supply cost in AED, including the 15 m² minimum and 5% VAT. Budget in minutes, no call required.
  2. Survey. We look at the glass (type, area, access, and the rooms that matter most) so the installation scope is real, not guessed.
  3. Confirmed quote. You get a clear, itemised quotation: film supply, installation, and VAT, separated. This is the binding number.
  4. Install. Precisely applied and discreetly finished, on the glass you already own, no re-glazing.

Estimate your cost now

Enter your glass area for an instant approximate figure, or ask for an exact quote after a survey. Either way, you’ll see real AED numbers, never a hidden price.

Key takeaways

  • Film supply is published: from AED 117/m², delivery included, 15 m² minimum.
  • Installation is quoted after a survey, because it genuinely varies by building and access.
  • 5% UAE VAT is added on top of both.
  • The calculator gives an approximate estimate; the survey turns it into a confirmed, binding quote.

Our commitment

We publish what we can stand behind and label the rest honestly. You’ll never get an "approximate" number presented as a final price, and you’ll always see supply and installation as separate lines. If you want the exact figure for your glass, the fastest route is the calculator for a budget, then a survey for the confirmed quote.

No. The per-square-metre rate (from AED 117/m²) is film supply with delivery included. Installation is billed separately and confirmed after a site visit, because complexity varies by facility type, number and accessibility of windows, and glass configuration, so it can't honestly be quoted at a single flat rate up front.
No, the calculator gives an approximate estimate for the film supply so you can budget before you call. It becomes a confirmed, binding quote only after a site survey establishes the exact glass area, access, and installation scope. We never present an approximate figure as a final price.
Because hiding the price wastes your time and ours. Publishing a real AED starting rate and a calculator lets you sanity-check your budget before committing to a call or survey. It's the same honesty we apply everywhere: real numbers, clearly labelled as supply vs installation, with nothing invented.
