Back to School, Not Back to Risk: Reinforcing Safety with Window Film


Back to Blog Posts

As the new school year gets underway, safety isn’t just a talking point; it’s a priority. Parents, administrators, and facility teams are all asking the same question: Are our buildings prepared?

Unfortunately, the numbers tell us there’s work to do:

  • An estimated 75% of school break-ins involve forced entry through glass.
  • Most intruders gain access in under one minute when glass is unprotected.
  • Delaying entry by even 60–120 seconds can drastically improve emergency response outcomes.

That’s where our brother company, Tint Revolution, comes in.

What Is Safety & Security Window Film?

It’s a nearly invisible layer applied directly to existing glass secured with Impact Protection Attachment Sealant. Once installed, the film and sealant work together to help hold shattered glass in place, making it significantly harder to break through doors or windows quickly. In an emergency, every second counts, and this delay can make all the difference.

Why Schools Are Installing It Now

Schools across the country are proactively adding window film to strengthen vulnerable access points. It helps:

  • Reinforce exterior and interior glass doors
  • Slow down or deter forced entry attempts
  • Keep broken glass from becoming a hazard
  • Buy valuable time for lockdowns and first responders
  • Protect against damage from severe weather events

Trusted by Schools at Every Level

From K–12 districts to university campuses, security film is quickly becoming a standard safety measure. With expert installation from Tint Revolution, schools get durability, compliance, and peace of mind, without major construction or costly window replacement.
