Over the last year, people have been spending a lot of time at home.  Also in the last year crime has been on the rise during the pandemic.  While crime is still not that bad here in Phoenix, the last year has made many people think about home safety and whether they are doing enough about it.  For any home, the biggest security weakness is the glass in doors and windows.  This is the way most burglars get in–hence the term breaking and entering.   If you are looking to shore up your Phoenix home from intrusion, therefore–your windows are a good place to start.  Safety and security window films is the best way to do this and it has other protective benefits too!

Safety Benefits or Security Window Film

UV Protection With Security Window Film:  The sun here in Phoenix is intense, to say the least.  We get a lot of it all year round.  What many people don’t realize is that security window films stop 99;9% of UV rays as well as burglars. This means you and your family stay safer from certain types of eye and skin disease and your furnishings are safe from fading. 

Protection From Accidents with Security Films:  Security window films work by keeping the glass intact after it is hit with a high-velocity blow.  This helps keep unwanted intruders out of your Phoenix home.  However, another time it is good when glass does not shatter into shards and give way is when people slip and fall into it. When you have security glass applied to your Phoenix home windows, should someone slip and into a window, the glass will not break into deadly shards.  Instead, it will stay adhered to the film in smaller, innocuous pieces. 

Protection From Natural Disasters:  When it comes to natural disasters, security window film is a good addition to have on your home. Typically the biggest threat during a storm is flying objects that hit glass and send it flying around to hurt people and property. When you have safety glass on your windows, it will not break into deadly shards and/or fly around to damage things. It will stay adhered to the film and usually stay as one piece in the frame.
