As much as we enjoy our windows, they can be the least secure part of our homes or offices. Can security window tint be that solution? How does security window tint work? Is security window tint or film worth it? We will answer those questions in this post.
How Does Security Window Tint Work
Security window film (also sometimes called safety window tint) is a type of tear-resistant film. It is affixed right on top of the existing window glass. Due to its strength, it is able to remain intact during impact. Safety window films come in various thicknesses, the thicker the film, the more protection it offers.
Security window film works by holding the window glass in place in the case of breakage. This means that during impact, instead of shattered glass debris, the broken glass stays attached to the security film.
Is security window tint worth the cost? Yes. Consider this: other options like security windows or security screens are considerably more expensive. For most of our customers, security film is a viable and affordable upgrade. The price range for security window tint starts at $8 per square foot for standard film and goes up to $15 for premium film.
