Pros of security window film

  1. Protection against Gun Violence: If a gun attack were to ever occur, security window film can help safeguard the people inside your building. It’s designed to stop bullets from multiple calibers of guns and will slow down an attacker’s progress if they are trying to enter through glass windows or doors – giving those on the premises more time to escape safely. Although it won’t keep out an intruder forever, it certainly provides much-needed protection in emergency situations.
  2. UV protection: Security window films don’t just provide protection from intruders, they also prevent UV rays that are responsible for causing diseases and fading furniture. In fact, these films can block up to 99.9% of the sun’s harmful UV rays! So not only does it offer peace of mind that your location is safe and secure but you’re also safeguarding those inside from any potential harm caused by the sun.
  3. Protection against bombs, accidents, and natural disasters: Not only is security window film resilient enough to guard against bullets and bombs, but it also offers protection from countless other dangers. During natural disasters, the glass stays in place so that shards don’t fly around endangering people with its splinters. Additionally, when someone falls into the glass by accident, there’s significantly less risk of them getting hurt seriously due to this strong protective coating.

Cons of security window film

  1. The cost of security window film: Bulletproof and bomb-resistant films require a substantial investment in high-tech systems. Not only are they costly, but can also take significantly longer to install compared to the film used for other applications. Therefore, it is essential that you consider all of the factors before making your decision on which product is best for you.
  2. Limited protection: Security window films are designed to offer protection against most bullets, yet they are not impenetrable and can eventually give in when exposed to powerful types of ballistics. Though the amount of time it takes for a shooter to break through the window may vary, this delay provides victims with precious moments that could be used for escape or concealment.
