Safety & Security Window Film

Safety and security window film adds a layer to existing glass. If the glass breaks, the film can help hold fragments together, which may reduce the risk from loose glass. Its suitability depends on the glazing and the intended use. It cannot guarantee protection against entry or injury.

Security window film can help keep broken glass together after an impact. That may make a broken pane more difficult to pass through and can limit loose fragments, but the result depends on the glass and the complete window assembly. It is one part of a property security plan, not a guarantee against a break-in.

Clean filmed glass gently with a soft cloth and a cleaner suitable for window film. Avoid abrasive pads or tools that could scratch the surface. Ask your installer when to begin cleaning and which products are suitable for the film selected.

Tempered glass breaks into small pieces when it fails. Film may help retain those pieces, but the window's frame and the way the film is fitted also affect the result. Have a dealer identify the glazing and assess the complete window before selecting a security film.

Laminated glass already has an interlayer designed to help hold it together when broken. Whether adding security film is useful depends on the existing glazing and your goals. Have a dealer assess the full window assembly before choosing an additional film.

The best choice depends on the existing glass, the size and setting of the windows, and what you want the film to address. A dealer can help assess whether a safety and security film suits the property and explain what the selected film can do if the glass breaks.

The terms safety film and security film are often used for films intended to help retain broken glass. The right specification depends on whether your main concern is loose glass, access through a broken window, or both. A dealer can help match the film to the glazing and intended use.

An edge attachment may be considered as part of a security window film installation, but its suitability depends on the glass, frame and intended use. Film alone does not determine how a broken pane will behave. Ask an installer to assess the complete window and explain the recommended approach.
