Smash and Grab an Anti-Theft Window Film

Commercial building door and window locks provide adequate resistance for everyday security. Yet, commercial-grade windows can easily break under the blunt force of hammers, crowbars, or even a large rock or brick. FBI statistics show 51,469 charges of larceny in San Antonio, TX, in 2019. On the other hand, existing windows treated with C‑Bond BRS are nearly impossible to break through.

Security is vital to a business, whether you have expensive merchandise in a storefront window or confidential files. Owners need reliable protection from threats. The window strengthening nanotechnology combined with the additional film-to-glass adhesion supports a broken window holding together in its frame without complete penetration. 

The C‑Bond Secure system is the best anti-smash and grab security window film system for retail storefront protection. Secure vulnerable entry points, deter potential thieves, and reduce the harm and risks of broken glass with the C‑Bond Secure system.

Solutions for Industry Specific Window Issues

Luxury Retail

Luxury retail stores often have the added concern of smash and grab, after-hours theft. Beautiful store windows showing luxurious wears engage window shoppers to enter the establishment and purchase. Similarly, these same windows that entice customers after hours often attract burglars. Window film offers a multitude of options to deter ‘smash and grab’ theft. Commercial window tinting reduces onlookers by visually impairing the inside view in the evening hours. Also, window tinting comes in a vast range of tints, from light to dark. The C‑Bond Secure solution provides a layer of defense and adds strength to the window’s glass surface. At the same time, adhesive nanotechnology strengthens the glass by as much as 250%. Similarly, the C‑Bond BRS system combines three layers of 15-mil window protection film with the C‑Bond Secure solution for added security. When applied in an industry-specific approach, it creates an almost impenetrable window that is bullet resistant. An adequately treated window will withstand multiple impacts. 

Sports Arenas, Ballparks

Sports stadiums often have glass to protect up-close fans from dangerous flying objects. The glass surrounding these establishments is more durable with the C‑Bond Secure adhesive solution. Whether it’s a 70-mile-per-hour baseball or a 100 MPH hockey puck, flying projectiles at sporting events strike the glass with immense force. The C‑Bond Secure window treatments increase glass’s durability and overall strength to reduce the risk of broken glass and potential harm to visiting fans. Keep your arenas safe with C‑Bond Secure window treatments. C‑Bond Secure also works with decorative window film so stadiums may boast their home teams logo.

Gun Clubs and Shooting Ranges

Gun clubs and shooting ranges need to protect their shooters behind bullet-resistant glass for obvious reasons. C‑Bond BRS is the only bullet resistant system scientifically tested for results. Patrons stay safe and secure while shooting and gun training. Bullet resistant glass treated with the C‑Bond BRS system does not impede viewing or produce fogging of the glass. Therefore the shooter’s ability is not impaired by the window film. Keep your establishment’s reputation intact and reduce the risk of injury, harm, or accidental death. Further, reduce injury claims and protect your business and patrons. You’ll rest assured that the clientele is protected and secure from stray bullets and misfires. Run an establishment that puts together gun safety with building safety.

Pharmacy and Cannabis Shops

Pharmacies and Cannabis shops often perform transactions with customers from behind front-end hardening solutions such as safety glass. Pharmacies are at high risk for theft and burglary. Using the C‑Bond Secure on existing glass with a security film dramatically increases the glass’s strength and resistance to blunt force. You may achieve additional bullet resistance with the C‑Bond BRS window treatment system. While it’s essential to train employees how to react, these solutions give employees extra time to get to safety and call for help if under attack.

Skyscrapers and Office Buildings

Beautiful skyscrapers give tenants breathtaking panoramic views. Yet, tenants facing the sunny side of the building often close heavy blinds or drapes to reduce intense heat and glare. Commercial window tinting reduces glare. Energy-saving window film helps control room temperature while allowing in the natural light. Additionally, window tinting also protects against harmful UV rays and reduces the environmental footprint. Installation of solar control window film is easy with the C‑Bond Secure window adhesive solution. You’ll increase the adhesion of your office window film and tear resistance by applying C‑Bond Secure adhesive to any commercial window film.

Do Security Cameras See Through Window Tint?

It often depends on the type of camera and the security features the camera lens allows. It is best to remember that most security window film does not possess a tint and provides all the added security benefits to the window’s glass. Security providers are adept at working with office buildings with a commercial window tint or a decorative film. Windows treated with the C‑Bond Secure or the C‑Bond BRS system toughen the vulnerable glass entry points. By strengthening the window’s surface against the unauthorized visitor, your security system has additional time for police to intervene before the perpetrator enters the building. Therefore, it’s safe to say that a security window film in conjunction with a security system is the most effective and efficient complete security solution. C‑Bond Secure and C‑Bond BRS are trusted products that meet industry security needs.

Which Film Works Best?

When we discuss what industries benefit most from using window films, it’s a case of which films most commonly help which industries and how. Window films come with varied features to accomplish the user’s different needs. Let’s look at what industries use various window films and why.

Art Gallery, Museum, Antiques, & Furniture Stores

Galleries and museums use an indoor window tint to protect artwork and artifacts from fading. Harmful UV rays fade antiques, paintings, and interior decor. Window tint is known for stopping UV rays. This precaution protects the original colors and the authenticity of the piece. Commercial window tinting and natural window film come in any range of tints, from neutral to blackout. However, the same concept applies to antique stores or furniture stores. Furniture stores may use a lighter or nude shade to allow natural light in but continue to stop the harmful UV ray’s damaging effects. 
Lawyer's Office, Medical Practices, & Counseling Services
To keep confidentiality, offices that require privacy often use a dual-reflective window film. A dual-reflective film creates a glossy mirrored effect similar to a two-way mirror. The film looks reflective from the outside. Yet, from the inside looking out, it appears tinted. Similarly, A privacy window film has a frosted glass look. Both of these window films have a pleasing aesthetic appearance, glare reduction, and maintain privacy. A dark business window tinting is also good in these respective capacities.

Nurseries, Daycare Centers & Conference Rooms

Similar to the practices mentioned above, these professions often require a certain level of confidentiality and privacy. In this case, a privacy window film has a frosted glass appearance. This film keeps the confidentiality by distorting the image on the other side. There are decorative films that may also achieve this goal nicely.

Professional Office Buildings

The main concern in office buildings is controlling the inside temperature so that everyone is comfortable throughout the building. Hot and cold spots throughout a building’s structure can produce temperature differences. Add in the hot sun beaming in through a wall of windows on one side of the building, and the differences can be highly uncomfortable for employees on either end of the spectrum. Building window tinting helps lower heating and cooling costs while improving the overall comfort for everyone inside.

Luxury Retail Stores & Banks

The top priority for luxury retail and banks is the security of assets. Security film enhances the window’s impact resistance. Security films come in anything from light protection to ballistic resistance. When the potential loss of assets is significantly high, you want the best security windows possible. Ballistic resistance impedes criminals in action and deters would-be assailants. For one-way ballistic film, the C‑Bond BRS system has scientifically proven nanotechnology and verified tested one-way ballistic gunfire properties. Meaning gunfire can shoot outward through the glass but not inward. Broken glass maintains minimal integrity, holding shattered pieces in place even after multiple shots fired.
