Switchable privacy glass for Phoenix custom homes and estates: primary suites, bathrooms, window walls and home offices, with no blinds. Serving Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, Arcadia and the Biltmore corridor.
Phase Glass provides switchable privacy glass, retrofit PDLC smart film and laminated smart glass for residential and commercial projects.
Privacy on demand for primary suites, bathrooms, window walls and home offices: no blinds, no curtains. Delivered as retrofit film or laminated glass. Built for Arizona desert-contemporary glazing: big west and south elevations, mountain views, and sun that never lets up.
Valley architecture puts long uninterrupted glazing toward Camelback, the Superstitions and the McDowells. Those elevations also take direct sun for most of the year, and the standard answer has been motorized shades that fail, fade and hum along an entire glass wall.
Switchable glass removes the hardware from the opening. Privacy becomes electrical rather than mechanical, so a 30-foot elevation switches in one action with nothing hanging in front of the view. Note the distinction: PDLC glass is a privacy product, not a solar-control product. Where heat load is the real problem we plan it alongside the low-e or shading strategy rather than instead of it.
Floor-to-ceiling glass is usually the most expensive design decision in the house, and window treatments are usually the first thing to compromise it. Hardware, stack-back, cords and fabric all push against the reason the glass was chosen.
Switchable glass makes privacy a property of the glazing itself. Rooms switch individually or together: a bedside control for the primary suite, a scene in the home automation system for a whole elevation. Under a second, silent, nothing to dust.
Service area: Phoenix
Yes. The Valley is a Phase Glass market, including Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, Arcadia, the Biltmore corridor, North Central Phoenix, Chandler, Gilbert and Cave Creek. Scope is confirmed per project at consultation.
It should not be specified for that. PDLC switchable glass is a privacy product. The private state scatters light rather than blocking solar heat. On Valley projects we coordinate with the glazing and low-e strategy so privacy and heat load are each solved by the right product.
Yes. Projects range from a single bathroom window to whole-home installations, with each room or elevation switching as its own zone.
Existing interior glazing is usually retrofitted with switchable film: no glass replacement. New construction and remodels are usually specified with laminated smart glass, where the switchable layer is sealed inside the panel.
Yes. The glass can be controlled from a wall switch, remote or app, and it ties into whole-home automation systems so privacy becomes part of your scenes.
PDLC glass rests in its private state without power (the crystals scatter light), so an interruption fails to private, not to clear.
Share the rooms, approximate window dimensions and any plans or elevations. We review the requirements and return project-specific pricing with the configuration we recommend.
