Glass Protection with Window Film

Building windows and glass doors offer transparency, natural light, and the opportunity for an open and aesthetic atmosphere. The value that glass adds to a building is clear.

Glass is a vital part of your building, from windows to doors to partitions. Protecting them, therefore, is a top priority that concerns both the safety of the windows and the safety of inhabitants. To help you take a proactive approach, here is everything you need to know about your options in glass protection film.

3 Different Glass Protection Window Films

There are a few different kinds of window films designed for glass protection. Films like safety and security film, for example, offer varying degrees of resistance to impact and shattering. 

Window films are a versatile technology. And, as Pittsburgh’s trusted authority on the matter, far be it from us to offer one cut-and-dried solution. Instead, we offer a variety of distinct options to choose from when protecting your glass:

Clear Security Film

Clear security film is a popular choice for a wide variety of locations, especially for businesses and storefronts where natural light and views are a priority. Like other safety and security films, clear security film is composed of microlayers of strong polyester for glass reinforcement.

The major benefit of this film is its subtlety. Despite 6-10 millimeters of shatterproof polyester, this film is entirely transparent, providing reinforced safety without any detriment to visibility.

Heavy-Duty Security Film

Heavy-duty security film takes glass protection to the next level with thicker and stronger materials. Starting at a dense 15 millimeters, heavy-duty film provides sound defense against forced entry and impact.

Ideal for high-security environments such as banks, schools, and government facilities, these window films are a reliable deterrent to malicious breakage and a sturdy front line of defense against accidents or weather-related impacts.

Anti-Graffiti Film

Though not intended to prevent shattering, anti-graffiti film tackles an important part of glass protection by shielding against vandalism. Rather than focusing on shatter prevention, anti-graffiti film creates a barrier between your valued glass and any intentional external damage that might come its way, ultimately preserving the integrity of the glass.

Common to public spaces and storefronts where appearances carry great weight for customer experience, anti-graffiti films make cleanup operations easy. Simply remove and replace the film, leaving the glass beneath entirely unaffected.
