Security Window Film

Do you know about “smash and grab”?

Most homes have valu­ables like jew­ellery, elec­tron­ics, finan­cial infor­ma­tion and more, and very often they are near a win­dow, eas­i­ly with­in reach to an intrud­er. Many res­i­dences also have home offices, with expen­sive com­put­ers and files with­in range of a win­dow. Patio doors also pro­vide a temp­ta­tion to a bur­glar. With the toss of a brick, he can quick­ly get in and grab valu­ables. Ille­gal access is much more chal­leng­ing and less like­ly to occur. On high­er win­dows, it can also pro­tect from impact from storm-tossed debris such as tree limbs, or even pre­vent a child from falling out a bro­ken win­dow. Sur­prise the Intrud­er with a win­dow that cracks but does not break when hit!

A large num­ber of bur­glar­ies in the Greater Toron­to Area are through open or unlocked doors and win­dows. It’s not uncom­mon to become com­fort­able or com­pla­cent in what we think is a “safe” com­mu­ni­ty. We open a win­dow or back door to get ven­ti­la­tion and then for­get to close it. Old­er win­dows often mean bro­ken or weak locks.

Window film is a great solution!

Sta­tis­tics indi­cate that almost 70 per cent of all bur­glar­ies involve forced entry through a win­dow or door. Madi­co and Safe­ty­Zone® by HANITA safe­ty film helps deter break-ins, theft and even per­son­al injury. Avail­able in clear, tint­ed and frost­ed win­dow film ver­sions, these films are vir­tu­al­ly invis­i­ble but what you will see is peace of mind.

Why Caulking Matters for Window Film Security

Dur­ing a break-in, intrud­ers often try to pop out win­dow­panes rather than shat­ter­ing them. That’s why caulk­ing is so impor­tant, because it holds the film and glass firm­ly in place to the win­dow frame, pre­vent­ing easy removal. Pro­tec­tion Plus uses Dow Corn­ing struc­tur­al sil­i­cone caulk­ing, a trust­ed brand in high-secu­ri­­ty appli­ca­tions. In short, the caulk­ing :

  • Secures glass to the frame to pre­vent the win­dow from pop­ping out dur­ing break-ins
  • Enhances impact resis­tance by rein­forc­ing film-edge adhe­sion
  • Main­tains flex­i­bil­i­ty in extreme Ontario weath­er (hot or cold)
  • Improves shat­ter reten­tion, hold­ing bro­ken glass safe­ly in place
  • Long-last­ing bond ensures reli­able per­for­mance over time
  • Essen­tial for forced-entry pro­tec­tion in secu­ri­ty film instal­la­tions
