Window films have long been used to extend the lifespan of a window, reduce glare, and even lower cooling costs. It’s estimated that window tint can actually block 99% of harmful UV rays, according to Cancer Council Australia. But did you know that these films can also be used to make your property safer? Let’s look at some of the benefits of safety films you can purchase from a window tint company.

1. What Are Safety Films?

Window security film is a product you can purchase from a local window tint company. It’s a heavy protective coating that when applied directly to a glass surface can reinforce the surface. This can help to provide protection from damage due to impacts. Impacts are sometimes caused by intruders seeking entrance into a property. Intruders can be kept out because the film literally strengthens the regular glass, making it more difficult to shatter, according to our team.

2. Why Are Films Preferrable to Other Safety Options?

In order to protect yourself, you may be wondering what makes safety films preferable to other options. With safety film being put in place, the glass is held together with a strong material making entrance more difficult. Safety films protect your property without changing the look of the windows, like other options. For instance, having bars installed across the windows changes the entire look of a building, and in general, isn’t considered very attractive. With safety films, you can have an added layer of security without taking away from the appearance of your building.

3. Are There Other Benefits?

There are other benefits to having films added to windows or doors. These strips also help to prevent injuries from broken glass. If a window or glass door is shattered, glass can fly in any direction possibly injuring people. However, if safety films have been applied, the glass will not fly around from an impact. The glass is held together and no one inside or outside the building is in danger of being cut by glass.
