Safety & Security Window Film in Garfield

Security window film adds a layer to existing glass that can help hold fragments together if the pane breaks. For Garfield homes and businesses, that can help reduce the spread of broken glass and make a forced entry attempt more difficult. The result depends on the film, glazing and installation. Film cannot guarantee protection against entry or injury.

On a Garfield property, that may help limit hazards from broken glass and add resistance at a vulnerable window or door. It is one part of a broader security plan, not a guarantee against break-ins or injury. An installer should identify the existing glazing before recommending a film.
