Security Window Films

Security window films sold by Access Protection Solutions help prevent rapid theft of merchandise and protect your personal property by securing the most vulnerable points of entry in your home or business which are glass windows and doors.

• Filtering the UV rays that can cause damage or fading to your furniture and other belongings.
• Preventing or delaying forced entries by intruders or burglars
• Keeping shattered glass in place to reduce the chances of injuries, in case of deliberate damage (such as vandalism) or unintentional accidents (such as a natural disaster)

Depending on the selected product, they can also help with:

• Minimizing the heat passing through the glass to better control the temperature inside.
• Limiting what people can see from outside-in, without compromising on the aesthetics or natural light passing through the windows.
