The windows can be a point of ingress into the home so it is important that they are protected. Replacing standard glass with security (toughened) glass is an expensive exercise but there is a more cost effective option – security tints. Here’s some more information.

If replacing your existing window glass with toughened or safety glass is not an option then consider security window tinting. It is an excellent way of making your windows safer and more secure and is very economical. The purpose of security tint is to hold the window glass together in the event of breakage, so that it does not shatter. Because it holds the glass together, the likelihood of injury should the glass break is reduced and it also deters burglars that are looking for an opportunistic way to enter the home as it actually takes longer for the burglar to clear the glass.

Of course, like all other forms of window tinting, security tints can also help to reduce heat and glare from the sun, making the interior of the home more comfortable.

It is important to have your security window tinting applied by a professional that is qualified and experienced in applying window tints. This will ensure that the tint is applied in the correct manner and will operate as it is supposed to. Also, it will eliminate the risk of those unsightly air bubbles. Professional installation will also guarantee that any warranties that apply to the security tint will remain valid.
