Security Window Film Sydney
Professional security window film solutions designed to help strengthen glass, reduce shattering and improve protection for homes and commercial properties across Sydney.
What Is Security Window Film?
Security window film is a cheap and effective way to strengthen your existing window panels without the need for costly glass replacements.
This film helps holding shattered glass together due to its strong adhesive, and slows down any forced entry attempts by keeping the glass in place after it has been broken. Delaying intrusion can be a key factor in avoiding property theft.
Security films also reduce flying glass hazards in case of unfortunate accidents.
These films are generally clear, but they also come in a tinted version to be suitable for commercial and residential use.

Frequently asked questions
Does security window film stop break-ins?
Security window films improve glass resistance by adding a thick strong layer of polyester to the interior of your glass panels. This layer will be hard to penetrate which can delay the intrusion rather than hammering the window down with one blow. This will give you more time for proper actions and calling help.
Does security film stop glass shattering?
Yes, security films have very strong adhesive that can hold large glass panels together when they break. This is a huge safety factor to consider if you have a glass shopfront or if you have large sliding doors or windows at your home.
Is security film suitable for homes?
Absolutely, and it also comes in a tinted version so you can have a stylish finish after installation. Most homeowners who have large glass panels in the ground floor are opting for window security films as an efficient help for their home security system.
Does security film darken windows?
The standard version of security films is clear, so you will not notice that it is there after application. However some customers would like to have a bit of privacy in addition to the security option, so dyed films are also an option that you can choose in addition to the security factor.
How thick is security window film?
Security films come in different thicknesses so you can choose what works best for your case or requirement. Solar Gard presents us with 2 options, the 4 mil and the 7 mil option. The "mil" represents a thousandth of an inch. Normally the 4 mil is used for safety and anti-shatter purposes, and maybe for shopfronts to prevent hit-and-grab actions. The 7 mil is for pure security reasons.
Can security film help protect shopfronts?
Indeed, security films can help protect shopfronts and minimize the damage by reducing the hit-and-grab risk. Breaking in will be much more difficult and complicated for potential intruders who might just give up and leave due to the time they would require to get in.
