Security film helps keep pieces of broken glass together after an impact. That can limit loose fragments and may make it harder to create an opening through the glazing. Its value depends on the glass and the complete window assembly, so a Hillside school, office or home should be assessed for its own needs. Film is one part of a broader safety and security plan; it does not guarantee against forced entry or injury.

Clean security film gently with a soft cloth and a cleaner recommended for the installed film. Avoid abrasive pads or scraping that could damage its surface. Ask the installer when the film can first be cleaned and what care instructions apply to your specific installation.

The terms safety film and security film often overlap. Both can help hold broken glass together. A safety application may focus on reducing exposure to loose glass, while a security application may also consider resistance to creating an opening.
