Safety & Security Window Film

Safety and security window film is applied to existing glazing to help hold broken glass together after an impact. For Greenville homes and businesses, that can help reduce scattered glass and add a layer of protection at vulnerable windows and doors. Results depend on the glass, frame and film selected. Film cannot guarantee against entry or injury, so discuss the glazing and your priorities with the installer.

Security film can help keep broken glass together after an impact, reducing loose fragments and making a damaged opening harder to clear quickly. That may be useful at entrances, storefronts and other exposed glazing. It is one part of a broader security plan and cannot guarantee that someone will be kept out or that injuries will be prevented. The existing glass and frame matter when choosing a film.
