Homeowners and property managers realize that clear glass windows are inefficient in factoring out glare, heat and UV. 

 

Unprotected glass is the weakest link in your security planning.

It only takes a few seconds for burglars to break through; take your valuables and leave the scene before law enforcement responds.

There is a practical cost effective solution that will give you the best ROI of any alternative window strategy: Window Film!


Advanced Film Solutions provides transparent, durable and optically clear coatings that are installed on your existing windows. 

These coatings remove UV, factor out heat and glare and lower your electric costs by as much as 30% a month.

Manufactured by Eastman Chemicals; these coatings are designed to last and will provide these benefits for decades to come supported by a lifetime warranty.

Winter or summer these coatings maintain the interior temperatures that best suits your comfort level.

Single pane windows perform like double pane windows at a fraction of the cost of a window replacement.

Thicker solar and clear shatter resistant versions harden your glass and make it extremely difficult for burglars to break through your windows. 

These films delay, deter and deny access and in reflective versions can provide privacy from that curious neighbor or a serious potential threat.

On the heels of tragedy throughout the country; security officials, law enforcement and education administrators are seeking methods to improve the safety and security of students, teachers and support staff.

Shatter window film are thicker (8 Ml) or greater fragment retention films that will hold the glass in their frames during a blast event similar to what occurred on Christmas Day in Nashville. 

There are numerous security enhancements both procedural as well as by altering the physical properties of the window envelope and access to the school property.

Glazing security film is an extremely cost-effective improvement readily implemented that has immediate safety outcomes:

  • Shatter resistant films are installed on existing doors and accessible windows.  The cost of these security enhancements are much less than replacing the existing windows.

  • Iterations of safety security window film can limit the exterior view into the facility. These reflective security films allows for identification of the party attempting to enter the facility.

  • Solar safety films improve the energy efficiency of the facility.  This may not be the primary purpose in considering these solutions but as a matter of practical ROI the energy efficiency of these films should not be overlooked.
