How Window Film Is Keeping Retail Businesses Safe From Crime
We live in a world that is growing fast and with that growth, here and Kansas City and across the US, the population is exploding, bringing with it a lot of great changes and some not so great. One problem commercial buildings owners in Kansas City face as the population density increases so too do crimes. For retail spaces, there has always been the threat of break-ins and robberies but now graffiti and vandalism too are on the rise. Another emerging threat is that of violence from guns or bomb attacks from home-grown terrorism. Although times are uncertain, technology is keeping up with many of the challenges we now face. One such technology is window film. Not good for just one but numerous different threats, window film is changing the way we protect ourselves and can be a real game-changer for retail stores.
What Types Of Threats Does Window Film Protect Retail Stores From?
Window Film Protects From Break-ins
Even after repeated strikes, window film keeps glass in place, meaning, the days of smash and grab crimes are over for those protected with window film. These crimes are opportunity crimes and window film takes the convivence aspect away long enough to deter criminals from trying to get through your store’s glass quickly to steal something.
Window Film Covers And Prevents Graffiti
Graffiti on retail storefront windows is all too common. It ruins windows and if left for too long will ruin your reputation as well. Graffiti Shield for store windows will save you money and make graffiti removal a breeze. Graffiti shield works as a sacrificial layer on your store’s windows. Should graffiti occur, you simply have the film removed and replaced instead of your entire window. Removing the damaged film is very fast and much less expensive than traditional graffiti removal.
Window Film Protects From Bullets And Even Bombs
The threat of violence from bullets or bombs is higher than ever before. As a retail store owner, protecting your storefront from possible attacks should be a very real consideration. When you have high-performance security, film applied to your store’s windows, in combination with specialty frames and adhesives, you keep yourself, your employees and your customers safe from a potential gun or bomb attacks.
