Burglary Glass Protection, Window Tinting Tampa Bay, Orlando

Leave a reply

It only takes a burglar seconds to smash through your glass doors sliders or windows.

 

Sure the alarm will sound and notify law enforcement, but how long does it take for your inventory, cash and other valuables to be stolen?

 

You could have bars installed but that takes away from your curb appeal and it’s an eyesore.

The solution?

Shatter control security glazing films from Advanced Film Solutions.

Thicker varieties of mylar films designed to withstand impact.  These are the very same shatter films/fragment retention films applied to Federal Buildings and Embassies throughout the world.

 

Retailers and chain stores have these invisible clear or slightly tinted films installed throughout the country.

As an optional improvement for your store’s protection we will attach the film/glass and frame into one complete wet glaze system using Dow 995.

These films delay, deny and deter entry allowing police response and preventing losses.

What To Know About Window Tinting For Your New Tampa Home

Leave a reply

If you are new to the Tampa Bay area; we wish you a warm welcome. 

Tampa Bay is a terrific place to live!

What you probably won’t enjoy are our endless summers of sultry, humid, hot weather that makes it impossible to open your windows at any time of the day or night.

 
You’ll soon discover that many smart homeowners have window film installed on their glass.



What factors should a Tampa homeowner consider before making any decisions on which window film solution to select?
 
  1. Does your homeowner association restrict the use of reflective films?

Many gated communities have deed restrictions that limit the use of reflective films. This is entirely an aesthetic concern.  Check your homeowner association guidelines under the “window category.”

Advanced Film Solutions has a wide range of non-reflective films that block heat without requiring a metallic look for your glass.  These films are very effective in reducing IR heat and visible light.

Our leading solution is the German manufactured Huper Optik Series.

  • We don’t have a deed restriction?

    If a reflective film is allowed; or you have the freedom of choice for selecting window film you may wish to consider highly effective dual reflective Vista Films.     Vista Films are reflective when viewing the glass from the exterior view.gfrVista designed a lower reflective interior face so your night views are undisturbed.  Vista Films are available in an array of light transmissions that can block nearly 90% of the glare and almost 100% of the UV. How dark, or light you choose is up to you!
  • Wouldn’t it be cheaper to simply replace our windows? 
  • Ask your neighbors how much window replacement costs are these days? Advanced Film Solutions takes your existing glass and transforms their ability to factor out heat and glare at a fraction (typically 1/10) the cost of a window replacement.  Our window film has a lifetime warranty that protects your investment.
  • We want an experienced company with a superior record for customer service!

    Advanced Film Solutions has earned the impressive Super Service Award for customer service from Angie’s List for 10 years. 

We are Better Business Bureau A Plus Rated and we have completed thousands of projects.bbb

  • You are the expert; is one film a better value than another? Or simply; who makes the best window film?

    Advanced Film Solutions differentiates ourselves from our competition in many important ways. We have more choices and offer more of the world leading brands than any competitor.  There are differences between the popular brand choices. Knowing which film matches our client’s requirements is our focused objective. Budget concerns, aesthetic variations and performance factors all contribute to formulating a customized proposal.
  • Do you give free estimates? 
    Yes!     
  • Our neighbor said we should get 3M window film. How do you compare? We are very attuned to the competitive advantages of our product/solutions portfolio over our 3M competition.Our background (33 years at 3M and formerly National Sales Manager of 3M Window Film.)

    We can state without reservation that there is no 3M solar or solar security window film that can equal the Advanced Film Solutions proposal in terms of aesthetics, clarity, documented heat rejection, choices in light transmissions, rebate acceptable or warranty.

We encourage this comparison and we are 100% confident that you will recognize the greater value in every critical comparison.

Church Work, Securing Worship With Shatter Window Film

Leave a reply

Advanced Film Solutions installed our safety and security fragment retention window film systems on several high profile buildings in the Tampa, Sarasota, Clearwater, Lakeland and Orlando region.

There are several religious facilities that clearly have a higher threat level than others.

Let’s be frank.
 


Muslim and Jewish Houses of Worship receive more threats and have unfortunately a greater risk level in these difficult times.

 How thicker security films work to control flying glass?

Thicker safety and security films have been used effectively for decades.

The Federal Government and internationally governments and large corporations are very familiar with these transparent security systems.

Glass is the weakest link in your perimeter protection planning.  Blast protection, flying debris and vandalism can create a dangerous environment for parishioners and visitors.

The window film system consists of thicker window films (8 ML and thicker) attached to the frames using wet sealant Dow 995 or mechanical attachment systems.


Many of these films are also available in solar versions that can reduce the heat gain in your facility as well as provide daytime privacy for occupants.

Tampa Bay Affordable Window Tinting Advanced Film Solutions

Leave a reply

The window film business in Tampa has been our obsession since the 1990’s. 

Back then I was the 3M sales rep for window film and later National Sales Manager of 3M Window Film.  In 2007 when I “retired” from 3M my goal was to launch a new concept window film installation company serving the entire Tampa Bay area.

The solutions we would offer were in every category superior in performance, appearance and investment cost to the 3M made or re-boxed films.

HO_5568-XL

We thought that we knew the obstacles that would face us as we began.  After all I had paid attention throughout the previous years and having had first hand experience with some of the most successful dealers in the USA.

My goal was to offer superior value with superior products never taking a back seat to 3M.
 

18 years later and Advanced Film Solutions has developed into one of the largest VISTA and Huper Optik Window Film installation companies in the USA.

 

 

 

 

We have earned the Super Service award from Angie’s List for 10 straight years and the Best Of Home Advisor Award and HOUZZ.

2020 Eastman LLumar Dealer of the Year for the USA

Locally our car tinting business has grown in leaps and bounds based upon the support and performance of our FormulaOne and LLumar.

The challenge throughout these last 15 years is to continue to offer solutions that meet and exceed our clients requirements.

Our strategy has been to offer the best solutions and warranty with films that are superior in every respect.

Solutions that provide maximum return on your investment by insulating your windows in the winter as well as the summer!

 
The challenge as always is to remain relevant.
 
 
To meet our clients requirements and to offer the best films and the very best brands.
 
 

We never assume a sale but rather take the time to explain the differences between the films we offer.

We win on the glass!
