BurglarGARD Glass Protection Films Guard Glass Against Thieves and Vandals
Windows can now be discreetly "shielded" against thieves and vandalism with glass protection films called BurglarGARD™ from ShatterGARD®, Inc. Applied directly to the glass, BurglarGARD works like an invisible coat of armor, strengthening the building's "weakest security link" -- the glass. What’s more, you can protect your home and business using glass protections films without altering the outward appearance of your home or business.

BurglarGARD adheres to the interior side of the window. The glass protection film is virtually undetectable to the human eye and will not alter the appearance of the windows in any way.
BurglarGARD can provide a significant improvement over standard or tempered treated glass in its ability to withstand an attack from weapons such as a baseball bat, flying rock or even the occasional stray golf ball! While a criminal may muster enough force to shatter the window, it will require repeated and attention getting blows to break through the virtually impenetrable film. Most burglars won't risk the time needed to break through, and will abandon the attempted burglary.

That's good news for homeowners and businesses that use windows and showcases to display their products. According to the FBI's Unified Crime Report, almost 70 percent of all burglaries involved forced entry through a window or door.

PROTECTING YOUR HOME FROM BREAK-INS AND INVASIONS WITHOUT DESTROYING THE BEAUTY OF YOUR HOME

Given the recent wave of home invasions and break-ins that have occurred in US neighborhoods, Jordan Frankel, founder of ShatterGARD Glass Protection., a leader in the security products industry and security expert providing onsite commercial and residential security assessments, offered homeowners the following simple and affordable tips to help keep their families safe and secure:

Windows – The glass in windows and doors can very often be a point of weakness as well. Security window films are affordable, and can provide an extra layer of defense from thieves attempting to smash a window to gain access to the home. While a burglar may be able to muster enough force to eventually smash the window, the repeated attempts require a lot of attention-grabbing blows. Assuring the home has proper doors made from solid wood or metal, rather than a hollow-core style, along with 3.5 inch long steel screws to fasten the hinges to the door frame, will stand up to most breach attempts.

n The ability to see the outside of an exterior door is also very important. If an abutting window cannot provide a view of the doorstep before opening it, a peep hold can easily be installed.

Landscaping: Believe it or not, appropriate landscaping can help deter intruders from accessing windows, while maintaining an aesthetic appeal.

n Keeping trees and bushes trimmed back from the house and windows helps diminish the likelihood of an intruder using the shrubs as cover. Tree limbs should also be trimmed, to prevent an intruder from using a tree to access a second story entry point.

n Planting low-growing sharp or thorny bushes such as holly, rose shrub, or barberry under windows, or adding gravel or landscape rock which makes for noisy footing, are also good ways to deter thieves from attempting to gain access to windows.

n Secure the Garage: Garages are favorite targets for thieves, not only because they are often unoccupied, but because they often offer a direct and unlocked entry to the remainder of the home. A few simple countermeasures can help greatly deter an intruder’s ability to access the garage.

n Always keep the garage door closed; an empty garage or a missing vehicle can alert thieves that the home is unattended.

n Change the factory set codes on the door’s remote control often, so thieves cannot open the door with a store bought remote.

n Adding motion and glass break sensors to all windows in the garage will also provide added warning of an attempted break-in.
