Being an educator is one of the most selfless and noble jobs in the world. But unfortunately, it’s also one of the most dangerous here in the United States. Our country experiences a larger number of school shootings than any other developed nation. And the problem only seems to be getting worse.

That’s why schools have taken it upon themselves to put security measures into place that will protect their staff and students. One of the ways they’re doing it is with bomb blast window film. A smart choice for Dallas schools of all types, from preschools to universities, bomb blast window film helps keep danger at bay, and protects innocent occupants inside school buildings. It’s one of the best security improvements a school can make.

In this article, we’ll discuss how it works and the various ways schools can use it to their advantage.


How Bomb Blast Window Film Improves Campus Security

We know from countless cases like Columbine that the old “hide under the desk” method doesn’t work when it comes to armed intruders. Schools need more advanced and effective ways to keep students safe. They need to be able to be proactive about security, not reactive. This means we need a way to keep intruders out of our schools.

That’s where bomb blast window film can help. Bomb blast window film prevents intruders from entering school buildings by forced entry. The film increases the strength of windows to the point where they’re almost impossible to break. This keeps intruders from getting inside using common methods like smashing a window or glass door.

Mitigating Damage & Injury

In addition to preventing forced entry, bomb blast window films also protect schools by minimizing the extent of damage and injury. If an explosion happens near campus, the film will keep the school’s windows from shattering. This prevents people and interiors from behind harmed by lethal glass shards.

With more safety benefits than one, it’s easy to see why schools across the country, including Dallas, are investing in bomb blast window film. Sure, it’s an expensive investment to make. But the bottom line is, it keeps students safe. And you can’t put a price on that.
