Safety and security

Are you a Virginia Beach resident that wants to protect your family from break-ins? Are you a company owner that wants more security for your equipment and belongings? If so, then you need to learn all you can about safety and security window film.


Doing so can finally give you the peace of mind that you seek. Instead of experiencing an unforeseen emergency, everything and everyone inside your property will be protected.


See below for an in-depth guide on safety and security window films and why they're a must-have for your property. You'll have more peace than you'd previously thought to be possible.


1. Protection From Break-Ins

The security threats surrounding both residential and commercial properties are the same. It's an uneasy feeling, knowing that unforeseen emergencies could threaten the safety of your belongings and everyone inside.


Without any form of protection, the glass in your windows will shatter and leave your interior susceptible to theft, water damage, and more.


Thankfully, safety and security window films can help. Since they're applied adhesively, they serve as an extra layer of protection for your glass windows. If any blunt force were to hit it, the glass would stay intact; it may crack, but it won't shatter or fall.


For example, a window might be hit by a burglar trying to break in through the window or by flying debris during a storm with high winds. The glass will stay in place, which will prevent water from leaking inside. 


This can also help prevent a break-in. The burglar will be caught off guard if the glass doesn't shatter on impact; they will likely run away in panic rather than continue with the break-in.


All of your items will be safe and sound inside. Your business operations can continue without any major setbacks.


2. Temperature Control

Perhaps you've noticed that the inside of your house is getting extremely hot during the day. Maybe you have watched your energy bills climb month after month. Whatever the case might be, safety and security window film can help make your entire home/office more energy efficient.


Many people are quick to blame their wall insulation, but the truth is that windows are often the biggest weakness with insulation. They allow the heat to come inside unimpeded, causing your entire family or staff to remain uncomfortable throughout the day.

Thankfully, safety and security films can save the day! It will keep the summertime heat outside so that your air conditioning system isn't under duress


More temperature control can benefit residential and commercial property owners. For residential owners, you and your family will look forward to a comfortable environment in your haven. For commercial owners, you can look forward to fewer tenant and/or customer complaints.

3. Blocks Ultraviolet Rays

Insulation isn't the biggest issue. Whether it's a residential or commercial property, your windows are allowing sun rays to seep inside and deteriorate your inside.


The ultraviolet rays will cause the temperature to spike, eat away at the color of your furnishings, and put unnecessary stress on your HVAC system. 


Fortunately, window films can offer a solution. LLumar films block 99-percent of all ultraviolet rays making their way inside your home. You'll have more sun control regardless of the window film type that you select.


This can also help you reduce sun glare and offer more relief for your air conditioning unit. It will regulate the temperature inside your home/office; this means your AC will require less energy and, thus, your energy bills will be lower. It's a win-win for everyone involved!


4. Protection From Accidents

Even if your house/office is in a safe neighborhood, there's always a chance that your windows could be shattered. 


For example, your window might get shattered by a baseball that the neighborhood kids were using while playing near your house.


But what if you could prevent your window from shattering before those unforeseen situations occur? With safety and security film, you can! LLumar window film strengthens the integrity of your glass and prepares it for any high-contact situation.


Whether it's a foul ball went wrong or a confused birt that thinks your window is a shortcut, you'll be glad you thought ahead!


5. More Privacy

We get it; you don't like the idea that someone else can see inside your commercial or residential property. Neither do we!


Safety and security film can also increase the privacy of your interior. The window film gives a mirror effect that makes it virtually impossible to see inside.


With safety and security film, you can control how much/little people can see inside your property. This will make your family and tenants feel more peace of mind.


This also lowers the chance of a break-in; burglars are less likely to break into a property they can't see inside of.
