Safety & Security Window Film

Safety and security window film is applied to existing glass to help hold fragments together if the glass breaks. For Greensboro homes and businesses, it can add a useful layer of protection at windows and glass doors. Its suitability depends on the glazing and the goals for the space; it cannot guarantee against entry or injury.

Security film helps keep broken glass together after an impact. That can reduce loose fragments and make a damaged opening harder to pass through, although the result depends on the glass and installation. For a Greensboro property, start with the windows or doors that concern you and have the existing glazing assessed before selecting a film.
