The recent events in Florida and Maryland have raised concerns for school districts across the country, including those here in Dallas, Texas. Schools should be a place where learning can happen safely and without interruption and the last thing that any parent should have to worry about is whether their child will be safe when they drop them off at school for the day. But due to these recent events, this is now a common concern among many parents.

How to address school safety issues is a complicated and controversial matter. While we may not have the solution to gun violence, we do know one thing that can be done to make schools safer: installing safety & security window film. Installing safety and security window film for Dallas schools is easy and, for the most part, affordable. And numerous evidence exists that proves its effectiveness.

How Window Film Can Help Protect Students and Staff During Emergencies

Numerous examples have shown that security window films can help protect students and staff during emergencies and provide peace of mind. One such example is St Mary’s School in Tennessee that recently decided to upgrade their school security with Llumar Window Film. The results of the window film were even better than the school hoped. Not only did it make staff and students feel safer and more comfortable, but it also provided many other benefits like energy efficiency.

Understanding how security film works is necessary for understanding how it can help schools become safer. Security film is basically like an invisible shield. Security film uses high grade polyester and advanced adhesives to bond to glass. Once attached, the film absorbs energy, making the glass more resistant to impact. When glass breakage does occur, it creates a tear resistant sheath, preventing intruders from entering the school.
