Benefits of Bullet Proof Windows
Installing bullet resistant windows in your property can provide you, employees, customers and visitors with peace of mind in a variety of ways. The strength and security of ballistic glass windows make them ideal for creating a safe indoor environment, but that’s not all they can do. Ballistic windows offer:
- Security — The most obvious advantage of having bullet resistant windows is their ability to protect those inside the property. By absorbing the impact of bullets, blunt force attacks and even explosions, they provide occupants with precious seconds they need to get to safety. This means robbery attempts and other forced-entry incidents can be delayed until law enforcement arrives or deterred completely as the assailant seeks an easier target.
- Soundproofing — Thanks to the multiple layers of laminated glass and polymers, these windows also help block noise from outside. This helps create calmer and more comfortable indoor environments for those who use them. Banks, government buildings, doctor’s offices and other commercial buildings can benefit from preventing the sounds of traffic and other auditory intrusions from impacting the atmosphere inside.
- UV Protection — Many bullet resistant windows also include UV protection that dampens the effects of the sun’s rays. This helps reduce glare inside the building and can prevent fading on interior surfaces due to sun damage.
- Energy Savings — With insulated frames, ballistic windows can prevent the elements outside the property from affecting the temperature inside. This means HVAC systems need to run less frequently, saving property owners a significant amount on their utility bills.
Comprehensive Security Solutions
Bullet proof windows can fit easily into a comprehensive approach to building security. They can be paired with entry doors made from the same bullet resistant materials that secure entrances, as well as ballistic wall panels that can be installed in strategic locations to create safe zones where people can gather in the event of an emergency. Surveillance systems that include cameras are another effective addition to a building’s security profile that are proven effective. Many property owners and managers choose bullet proof windows because they are effective at stopping attacks long enough for those inside to seek shelter and in many cases discourage the attacker from going any further.
Installation and Maintenance
Because of the specialized nature of the products, it’s generally recommended that bullet resistant windows be installed only by experienced and certified contractors. This ensures that the integrity of the windows will not be compromised accidentally during the installation process. Keeping these windows clean is relatively simple, requiring only water, a soft cloth and mild detergent to remove dirt. Commercial window cleaners are not recommended, as they can cause damage to the polymer layers that make up much of the glazing. This can harm their appearance and impact the protection level they provide.
