Safety Is Key for Denver Students And Staff

Denver is a superb city to raise families – there are a plethora of outdoor activities for adults and children to enjoy year-round, such as hiking through the Rocky Mountain National Park, skiing powder days in dozens of resorts nearby, and tubing in Clear Creek on a hot summer day. The fantastic weather and booming industry keep tens of thousands moving to the Mile High City each year. Parents and those looking to start families place a high value on school safety when choosing where to live and it is of utmost importance to school districts to do what is possible to keep children and staff safe in a place of learning.

 

Coloradans are all too familiar with the devastating Columbine High School Massacre that took 13 young lives and injured and scarred countless others. The number of mass shootings has not decreased since then – 154 shootings plagued the nation in just January to June 2018 alone – and what is even more unfortunate is that these shootings have become more lethal, with more lives tragically lost. Increasing school safety is one step schools can take to prevent such awful crimes from taking place and one potential improvement is bolstering glass entryways from intrusion using security window films. Scottish Window Tinting has been in business in Colorado since 2008, helping protect schools by installing safety films.

 

What Is Security Window Film And How Does It Help?

 

Security window film is an adhesive layer that is placed on top of glass windows and entryways to reinforce the strength of glass. These films make the glass up to 40 times stronger than when it is left on its own, meaning it is less penetrable to potential attackers. Security window film deters repeat blunt force attack for up to two minutes, giving emergency responders that much more time to arrive on the scene to help.

 

Because no major reconstructions are necessary to install window films, installation is time and cost efficient. This means your school need not wait long for additional security on ground level windows and glass entryways which could be targeted points for dangerous intruders to enter from. Security window film helps deter unwanted entry and also prevents glass surfaces from shattering. This added value is important when considering additional problems due to shattered glass. Inclement weather like hail has become a more frequent weather pattern that could lead to additional potential bodily injury and property damage, which security films could help prevent.
