Shop windows and boutiques are often targeted by vandalism. The result: broken windows, broken glass everywhere and costly repairs. But did you know that it is possible to protect your business against glass breakage, impacts and cracks with adhesive window film? Here are 3 questions to ask yourself to find the best way to keep your shop safe.

Why is it important to protect your shop windows?

It's every shop owner's nightmare. A broken window, a shattered window, a window pane riddled with impacts... Storefronts are often targeted. Your window serves as a showcase for your business and is therefore continually exposed to the risks that arise from this. Attempted burglaries, acts of vandalism, accidents...

To protect themselves against these incidents, businesses install alarms, guards and reinforced windows. But did you know that there is a simple and inexpensive way to make your shop more secure? Solar Screen offers a wide range of anti-glazing films that keep your glass in place and help to absorb shocks and impacts.

How to secure your shop?

In order to secure your shop against the risks of break-ins and ransacking, it is important to start by protecting the windows. These are the most vulnerable areas in the event of an attack or attempted burglary.

Although alarms are one of the most common security devices, they only serve as a deterrent and are not effective once an attack has taken place. Security window films offer your shop extra security. They prevent break-ins, prevent the glass from shattering and splintering, protect people inside the shop and absorb shocks.

In the event of superficial damage or scratches, they are easy to replace without having to dismantle the entire pane. Much less expensive than armoured glass, it is a reliable and cost-effective way of ensuring the security of your business.

How does adhesive security film work?

Are you wondering how to apply anti-breakage film to your windows? It's a very simple process that doesn't require any special skills. It is 100% adhesive and takes only a few minutes to apply. Made of a thick layer of polyester, it is applied to interior or exterior panes to reinforce their resistance.

When the glazing receives an impact, it is absorbed by the protective film and damage is minimised, if the impact is on the film first. No scattered glass or completely broken panes, which prevents intrusion. It also limits scratches and saves you from having to change the whole pane in case of unsightly shallow marks. Note also that the anti-breakage films can be lined with sun protection and can easily be changed in case of tags or graffiti.
