As a business owner, security is likely becoming a concern for you. Your commercial space is a place where you likely spend the most time besides your home. And, it is probably one of your biggest investments too. Many business owners, just like you, are adding security measures right now. We understand the weakest point of nearly any building are the glass windows and doors. Meaning you should consider shoring these up in your security efforts. Other options like security cameras, security guards, and bars on your windows are good, but, the most powerful and cost-effective way to protect your Seattle business is with window film.

How Security Window Film Protects Your Seattle Businesses Windows

Security window film does not work alone; it works with other technologies to keep your business safe. It is engineered to strengthen the glass of your windows and make them more resistant to breakage. But, there are three main components involved. Each plays a different role to help give you the most protection and we can install all three for you!

  1. The Security Film: One noteworthy thing about security window film–it has many of the same benefits as other window films. Moreover, they are thicker and engineered to take numerous blows. Some (in coordination with other elements) can resist a bomb or ballistics blow. Windows treated with these types of films can keep intruders out for a longer amount of time. This is why these types of films are utilized in secure buildings both privately owned and owned by the US government.
  2. The Advanced Adhesive: The next piece of an integrated window film security system is the adhesive. Security window film may be hard to tear but it is advanced adhesives that give its real power. We use the leading adhesive brand–C-bond. C-bond is engineered to work on a nano-level. It fortifies glass through molecular technology to make it more flexible and resistant to collapse. So, even after a powerful blow from a bullet or bomb, glass treated with C-Bond adhesive will stay stuck to film.
  3. The Security Frames: A specialty framing system is the last, but just as critical feature, of a security window film solution for your Seattle commercial space. It is applied to the edge of your existing window frames to ensure the sheet of broken glass does not tear-out. Bomb blasts or bullet strikes of most magnitudes will not rip glass sheets from these frames. This means no flying glass and protection for those inside and giving them more time to escape.
