Relentless Heat? Get Tampa Bay Huper Optik Window Film, Advanced Film Solutions

Advanced Film Solutions recently completed several installations with our Huper Optik Ceramic films competing head to head against 3M prestige film.

We won.



Frankly with so many arrows in our quiver we have an unfair advantage over my former company and their numerous dealers, agents, home depot people and window genies.

Our primary challenge is to dispel the perception of superior performance based solely on logo and brand reputation by offering and demonstrating superior documented Window Film.

Brand Leaders by any objective measure of sales, market share or performance where it counts:

ON GLASS!
 
 

Certainly if anyone understands the halo effect of 3M it’s a guy like me who spent 33 years at 3M waving that logo and in particular as a former National Sales Manager of 3M Window Film.

I kind’a know that stuff don’t I??

We match the right solution for YOUR Requirements!

  • Warm soft light without the (smurf) blue shift that all prestige films suffer.
  • Optical clarity particularly when the Sun hits the glass at an angle.  The 3M prestige film has a hazy cloudy appearance that is unacceptable.(Dare to compare!

  • Huper Optik  Ceramic films will not corrode (despite the nonsense my 3M competitor offered about rusting!)
  • By the way we will happily remove any hazy cloudy 3M Film upon request at no charge (FREE!) when you upgrade to Huper Optik!

Advanced Film Solutions Shatter Solar Security Tampa Bay, Orlando Window Tinting

 security-window-film-1

A local warehousing distribution company was extremely concerned with the glare they had through their higher windows. 

In particular this problem became acute during the winter months when the angle of the Sun is lower in the sky.

Employees were complaining and management was also concerned that burglars could easily break through their windows stealing valuable inventory.

They needed a dual benefit solution to tackle both problems and the best solutions was our solar security control shatter resistant window film.

 

Glare control was achieved with our installation of Silver 20 Reflective Film combined with 8 ML polyester and and our shatter resistant adhesives.

Advanced Film Solutions has several reflective film solutions that also provide shatter resistance and crime protection.

Our LLumar, Vista, Armorcoat, SunTek, Hanita, Madico Films are available in an 8ML or thicker versions.

Sliding Glass Door Security Problems:

secure

Statistics show that most intruders gain access through the front door of homes.

Florida is particularly vulnerable for break-ins through sliding glass doors, which are very popular here in Florida.

Smash-and-grab is the most common entry through glass doors, with a brick, rock or just about anything lying nearby as the only tool needed to gain entry to your home.

Window Film Hardens Sliding Glass Doors

  • Window Film: One simple way to guard your sliding glass doors is the professional installation of our thicker solar or clear shatter glazing security films.

  • The window film will help hold the shards of glass together making it much more difficult for the intruders to get through (and reduce your cleanup and potential injuries).

We anchor the film to the frames and glass which makes it extremely difficult for burglars to push the glass out of the frame.

We also recommend that glass adjacent to your front door and pool bath doors be protected with these security films.

The objective is to delay the entry.

secure

Making it difficult for the burglar(s) to enter can make all the difference in preventing substantial loss of valuables as well as life safety protection.

Recent statistics indicate that 64% of all home burglaries is through your windows and sliders.

Our shatter films provide that peace of mind and can reduce your monthly electric costs if you select a solar control version.
