Architectural Film Wraps
Architectural Film Wraps in New York City
Vanta installs architectural film on selected existing doors, elevator surfaces, cabinetry, millwork, wall panels, and common-area surfaces throughout New York City.
Film wrapping can provide a new architectural finish when the existing substrate is stable, suitable for installation, and does not require complete replacement.
A New Finish Applied to a Suitable Existing Surface
Architectural film is a decorative surface material installed over properly prepared existing substrates. It is available in finishes that can resemble wood, stone, metal, solid colors, concrete, fabric, and other architectural materials.
Before recommending film, Vanta reviews the surface condition, material, shape, exposure, edges, and intended use. Film installation is recommended only when the existing substrate is suitable.
Preserve Suitable Existing Elements
Doors, panels, cabinetry, or millwork may remain in place when the structure is sound and suitable for wrapping.
Change the Visible Finish
Architectural film provides a different color, texture, or material direction without replacing the complete assembly.
Installed on Existing Surfaces
Many suitable surfaces can be prepared and wrapped in their current location.

Explore Common AreasWhen Architectural Film May Be the Right Option
Film May Be Appropriate When
- The existing substrate is structurally sound
- The main issue is the visible finish
- The surface can be properly cleaned and prepared
- Full replacement is unnecessary for the project
- The selected film is compatible with the substrate
- The edges, corners, and geometry allow proper installation
Repair or Replacement May Be Required When
- The substrate is unstable or severely damaged
- Moisture problems are present
- Corrosion or movement affects the surface
- The existing coating prevents proper adhesion
- The assembly requires structural repair
- Building requirements do not permit film installation
Final suitability is confirmed after Vanta reviews the surface, condition, photos, measurements, site access, and project requirements.
Update the Finish While Keeping Suitable Existing Elements
Less Removal
Suitable doors, panels, cabinetry, or millwork may remain in place instead of being completely removed.
Controlled Installation
Installation may require less demolition and reconstruction than replacing the full existing assembly.
Coordinated Finishes
Film can help create a consistent material direction across several suitable interior surfaces.
Finish Selection
Projects can be reviewed using physical samples before the final finish is approved.

Questions About Architectural Film
Vanta installs architectural film on selected elevator surfaces, interior doors, wall panels, cabinetry, millwork, lobby elements, and common-area surfaces. Suitability depends on the substrate, condition, shape, exposure, and intended use.
No. Surfaces with structural damage, moisture problems, severe deterioration, movement, corrosion, or unsuitable coatings may require repair or replacement.
Vanta reviews photos, measurements, surface type, existing condition, edges, hardware, access, expected use, and relevant building requirements.
Available architectural-film collections may include wood, stone, metal, solid-color, concrete, fabric, gloss, and matte finish directions. Availability must be confirmed before final selection.
Physical samples may be provided or reviewed depending on the selected collection and product availability.
Timing depends on the number and type of surfaces, preparation requirements, finish complexity, building access, and site conditions. A project-specific schedule is provided after review.
It may be possible depending on access, traffic, work hours, protection requirements, ventilation, building rules, and the project scope.
Submit photos, approximate measurements, quantities, surface type, project address, preferred finish direction, access information, and desired timing through the contact form.
