Glass Security Solutions

Glass Security for Homes

The most common glass related injuries occur when glass breaks causing shards to fly inward, often with violent force. ACE/Security Laminates™ produces several levels of safety and security protection in order to help you protect what you value the most; your family and possessions. For most residential applications we recommend our 100 or 200 Series safety film and security laminate.

Two out of three break-ins occur through glass, the easiest point of entry. ACE/Security Laminates products works as an integral element for maximum glass strength. Our security laminate holds glass together (even when broken) like an invisible shield, protecting your household from theft, vandalism, accidents and violent weather conditions. In fact, you can apply our laminate to any glass surface in your home, be it front and back doors, patio doors, large decorative windows or side lights.

On half-inch glass, our laminates are capable of stopping small arms fire.

Securing Glass of Automobiles

The most vulnerable part of a vehicle is the window glass. Most vehicles now have security alarms but they only make noise and do nothing to prevent or slowdown the progress of a car jacking or theft. Real security starts with deterring a thief from smashing the window and hurting an occupant of a vehicle, stealing the contents of the vehicle or the vehicle itself.

By protecting the windows of a vehicle with laminate you are creating a strong deterrent for would-be theft because attempting to smash through with the use of rocks, baseball bats or crowbars, for example, becomes so difficult. Use of our laminates reduce the risk of unauthorised entry into your vehicle for the purpose of car jacking, theft of valuables (including car stereos, computers, tools or even the vehicle itself) and/or perpetrating violence (e.g., in the case of civil unrest).

Advantage of strong and secure glass:

• Reduce the risk from acts of violence such as car jacking or automobile theft.
• Reduce the risk from anyone gaining entry to your vehicle to steal stereos, computers, tools or the vehicle itself.
• Reduce the risk of being hurt as a result of violence in the event of civil unrest.

Securing Glass of Commercial Buildings

The most vulnerable part of any building is the window glass as exemplified in many disasters through-out history, whether they are man-made like the World Trade Center or natural disasters like Hurricane Andrew. Use of our laminates will assist in the protection of your business and property. As above, alarm systems alone can only warn of intruders or a theft in progress but window protection can slow down and in many cases stop the intrusion thus saving precious lives and protecting items like computer equipment, physical company records and inventory.

Advantages of choosing 200 Series Multi-ply Security Laminate:

• An additional layer to enhance protection of your business and prized possessions from smash-and-grab type break-and-enters;
• Reduced risk of glass penetration by flying debris, often created during severe weather or other violent situations; and
• UV protection, which, amongst other things, reduces energy costs for cooling interior office spaces.
