Security window film is a transparent polyester film applied to glass surfaces to improve impact resistance and reduce the chance of break-ins. It helps hold broken glass fragments together, slowing or deterring forced entry and improving safety without replacing the glass itself.
When glass fails or is damaged beyond what film can protect, a glass replacement may be necessary to restore safety and insulation.
How Security Film Works
How Security Film Works
Security film for glass is applied directly to the interior surface of glass. The window film bonds to the glass with a clear adhesive, creating a layer that helps prevent cracking and reduces the likelihood of glass shattering when impacted.
What Security Film Protects Against
What Security Film Protects Against
Security film increases strength against:
- Forced entry attempts (burglary/impact)
- High wind or hail
- Flying debris from storms
- Accidental impacts
This isn’t bullet-proof protection, but it increases resistance compared with bare glass.

Benefits of Security Window Film Attachment Systems
Benefits of Security Window Film Attachment Systems
Pairing an attachment system with security window film is essential for maximizing window security. Here’s why this combination matters:
Stronger Defense Against Break-Ins: Security films keep shattered glass in place upon impact, but forceful hits can still push the glass out. An attachment system secures the film to the window frame, making it harder for intruders to dislodge the glass and enter.
Compliance with Regulations: Some safety codes mandate attachment systems with security films to meet higher safety standards.
In summary, while security window films boost glass safety, adding an attachment system heightens these advantages, creating a comprehensive solution for safeguarding both property and occupants.
