There's no wrong answer, but the best type and materials chosen vary based on how long you plan to use your screen. Metal, wood or planter-style privacy screens are ideal for long-term use, while roller shades or balcony screens are well-suited for short-term use.

The short answer is: no. Most window films do not create complete privacy at night. For instance, one-way privacy or mirror films can create a very private space during the day. Its mirror effect creates privacy because the light outside is generally brighter than the light inside during the day.
