Safe School Initiative
Safety Limitations of Tempered Glass
Florida's Safe School Initiative is a commitment to protect students and teachers, schools from the worst effects of armed conflict. One of the biggest security vulnerabilities in schools today, is the extensive use of tempered glass glazing. When compromised, tempered glass shatters into small pieces, which allows intruders to easily bypass barriers and enter into the building. According to security experts, a gunman can gain access into a school in roughly nine seconds, when confronted with tempered glass.
Solution
With Hüper Optik Clear Shield Film intruders are deterred because as the glass breaks, a “spider web” of broken glass forms that will not permit the perpetrator to immediately enter through the window, slowing down and in some cases stopping their intrusion efforts.
Hüper Optik security films have been installed on well over 100,000 square feet of glass; throughout the United States, on numerous school buildings.
