More Than Window Film – A Team Dedicated to Education, Craftsmanship & Trust

Palmetto Protection Films combines more than 25 years of professional window film installation experience with a commitment to honest recommendations, exceptional craftsmanship, and personalized service. Family-owned by Matthew and Kristy Yelle, our mission has always been simple: help homeowners and businesses make informed decisions about their glass.

Today, we specialize in residential and commercial window film solutions for homes, businesses, churches, schools, offices, storefronts, and specialty spaces throughout North Carolina’s Triad.

Whether we’re helping reduce heat in a sunroom, improve daytime privacy, add decorative film, strengthen vulnerable glass, or create more comfortable workspaces, our approach remains the same: listen first, educate clearly, and recommend solutions tailored specifically to each client and space.

To us, great service is about more than installing window film. It’s about showing up on time, communicating honestly, respecting your property, and making sure you feel confident from consultation through installation—and long after the project is complete.
