Ballistics-Resistant Window Film In Orange County
The world is a very uncertain place and while Orange County certainly is a safe place to live, raise a family and own a business sadly, acts of terrorism and acts of violence happen at random and could strike here too. Commercial buildings, in particular, are very susceptible to attacks from things like gunman and bombs because they usually house a lot of people at once where terrorists can do more damage. Also, schools and government buildings seem to be places where gun violence is more rampant. This is why commercial buildings of all types need to be prepared for acts of terrorism, mass shootings, and bomb attacks. Ballistics resistant window film, a powerful way to guard the weakest point of your building, is a good way to stay protected. High high-tech window film plays two critical roles: it keeps glass in place after a high-velocity strike from a bullet or bomb blast and is a way to stop would-be attackers from gaining entry into the building–even after the windows are shattered. Combined, these two attributes significantly increasing the odds of survival. One question we at Orange County Window Film (besides whether or not bullet resistant window film stops bullets) is–”What is the cost of ballistics resistant window film?” Below we have listed a range of pricing for both regular security window film and bomb/ ballistics resistant window film too.
The Price Range For Security, Bomb Blast And Ballistics Resistant Window Film
Security Films
Price: $8-16 per square foot
These films keep glass in place and protected against blunt force on the windows of your property. This helps mitigate the damage done in crimes like “smash and grabs” because it takes significantly longer to get into a window treated with film–if at all. It also protects people in and around your building from flying glass debris. Should the window be hit with extreme force, the glass will break, but stay in place.
Bullet And Bomb Resistant Film
Price: $125 per square foot
Many people ask us if we carry “bulletproof glass”. The truth is, there is no such thing as a true “bulletproof glass” (any glass can be penetrated given enough time and a high enough caliber bullet), but we do offer a package that includes treatment with the nanoengineered C bond adhesive, which, when combined with high-level security window film and specialty frames, makes glass virtually impenetrable to bullets and bombs.
*Please note: Security films require the addition of specialty framing around each treated window. These frames are normally priced by the linear foot and range from $2-5 per linear foot.
