Safety & Security Window Film

Security window film is applied to existing glass to help hold fragments together if the glass breaks. For a Broken Arrow home or business, that added glass retention can reduce the hazards of loose shards and create another obstacle to entry. Results depend on the glazing and the full window assembly, so film should be chosen for the specific opening and security goal.

That can be useful for storefronts, offices, schools and homes in Broken Arrow. It cannot guarantee that someone will be kept out or that injuries will be prevented.
