Security film can help keep broken glass together after an impact, which may reduce loose fragments and make a damaged opening harder to pass through. Its effect depends on the film, glazing and window assembly. It can be one part of a broader security plan for a home, office or public building, but it does not guarantee protection against forced entry or injury.
