11. Warranty – Product & Installation
We offer a limited residential lifetime warranty on professionally installed film for the original property owner and 15 years on commercial.

Specialty Film Warranty Disclaimer
Certain specialty or project-specific films—including but not limited to decorative films, anti-glare films, bird-safety films, patterned films, privacy gradients, specialty security composites, or any material designated by the manufacturer as “limited warranty”—may carry a shorter manufacturer warranty (e.g., 3-year, 5-year, or otherwise).
ZJ Security Film Solutions will honor the manufacturer’s published warranty period when that period is shorter than our standard Lifetime Residential or 15-Year Commercial warranty. In these cases, the manufacturer’s warranty supersedes the ZJ Security Film Solutions standard warranty.
Coverage Limitations
Specialty films do NOT qualify for the standard ZJ Security Film Solutions Lifetime Residential or 15-Year Commercial warranties. Specialty film coverage applies ONLY to:
- The exact warranty length provided by the manufacturer
- The specific warranty conditions and limitations outlined by the manufacturer (such as indoor-only use, vertical glass only, climate restrictions, etc.)
Installation Warranty
Regardless of film type, all installations performed by ZJ Security Film Solutions include a 5-year workmanship/installation warranty, covering:
- Peeling
- Bubbling
- Edge lift
- Adhesive failure resulting from improper installation
This workmanship warranty applies independently of the manufacturer’s product warranty.
All warranty claims must go through ZJ Security Film Solutions directly.
12. Glass Warranty Claims
To initiate a glass claim, contact your ZJ sales representative prior to any window replacement. Unauthorized replacements void warranty coverage.
13. Installation Standards
All installations meet IWFA (International Window Film Association) standards.
Completed work should be inspected from a minimum of 6 feet away under natural daylight, not direct sunlight.
14. Dispute Resolution
All disputes will be handled through binding arbitration. Both parties waive the right to a trial by jury, except in matters involving unpaid invoices or collections.
15. Severability
If any part of this agreement is deemed invalid, all other sections remain legally enforceable.
