Security Window Film in Cincinnati Schools
Solar Tint has installed security window film on critical access points at a number of schools in the Greater Cincinnati area. Security window film is virtually invisible and relatively quick and inexpensive to install. Additionally, it works around the clock to improve the security of doors and windows, protecting students from intruders gaining access.
3M Security Film delays a perpetrator’s access long enough to hinder their plans and creates a crucial window of time. This valuable time allows students and staff to reach safety points and carry out specific security protocols while alerting authorities. The transparent nature of the window film allows school staff to observe who is present at the surrounding doors and windows while reinforcing the vulnerable access points with a layer of robust, shatter-resistant protection.
