Your Strongest Defense for Your Weakest Point
Safety and Security Film Installation in Atlanta, GA
Your windows are great for views, but they're also the most vulnerable part of your building. Energy Guard Solutions offers professional safety and security film installation across the greater Atlanta area to fortify your glass. It’s a simple upgrade that makes a world of difference.
It’s All About Holding Things Together
How Security Film Fortifies Your Glass
Unlike a normal window film, safety and security film is made from a thick, heavy-duty polyester bonded to your glass with an exceptionally strong adhesive. Its primary job is simple: in the event of an impact, it holds the shattered glass fragments together in the frame. Instead of exploding into thousands of dangerous shards, the window breaks but remains a single sheet. This is a massive upgrade in safety and security for any property.
This powerful film makes your windows significantly harder to penetrate. It’s an effective deterrent against smash-and-grab robberies and forced entry, as intruders can't just break the glass and walk in. They have to work much harder to create an opening, which takes time and creates noise. This delay is often enough to make them give up and move on, and it gives you or your security systems precious extra time to react. Our certified installers ensure a seamless application, giving you a powerful, invisible shield on your most vulnerable entry points.
Managing Expectations for a Tough Product
What Security Film Does NOT Do
Safety and security film is an amazing product, but it's important to understand its limitations. It’s not magic, and it’s definitely not what you see in action movies. Let's clear up a few things to make sure you know exactly what you're getting.
It won't make your glass unbreakable.
While it significantly increases strength and shatter-resistance, a determined person with the right tools or enough force can still break through. Its main purpose is to delay entry, not create an impenetrable barrier. This delay is often enough to deter a criminal.
It will not stop a bullet.
This is important: security film is not bullet-resistant.
Bullet-resistant glass is a separate, much thicker, and far more expensive product.
Security film is designed to handle blunt force from break-ins, storms, or accidental impacts, not firearms.
The window will still be broken after an impact.
While the film holds shattered glass in place, the window itself is still broken.
The film sacrifices itself to protect people and property inside.
After a major impact, both the film and the window will need to be replaced. Its job is to handle the danger in that specific moment.
