Nashville Security Film Protects Homes & Businesses in Up-and-Coming Neighborhoods

With neglected urban areas looking at an upward shift in Nashville, building a home or setting up a retail store in neighborhoods such as The Nations and N/E Nashville seems like a good investment. While these up-and-coming neighborhoods have a lot of potential, putting down roots or setting up shop in somewhat unsavory areas comes with safety and security risks.

If you’re living in an up-and-coming neighborhood that still has a way to go in terms of being safe, you may feel like you’re a target for criminal activity. After all, now your home stands out amongst a backdrop of rundown spaces that are less appealing. What can you do to increase security so that you can enjoy your new home and know you are protected from smash-and-grab criminals and other intruders?

Retail shops with expansive storefront windows that are popping up in dangerous neighborhoods throughout the Nashville area are also targets for criminal activity. When a pane of glass serves as the only line of defense between the inside of the store and the outside world, employees don’t feel safe, especially during the nighttime hours. Without securing the exterior glass of your retail space, both your merchandise and employees are vulnerable.

The easiest way for an intruder to access your home or retail space is through a window or glass door. Intruders use the force of blunt objects to smash through the glass and gain entry in a short period of time. If armed with a gun, all it takes is one bullet to shatter the glass, and an intruder is inside in seconds. Unless you take a step to protect your home or retail space, people, valuables, and merchandise are at risk.

With a premium security film installation, you can significantly increase safety and security in your home or retail space. Using a sophisticated technology, security film stops glass from shattering upon impact and falling to the ground, significantly slowing down intruders by making them work much harder to get inside. The thick, sticky film also works as a deterrent, sending criminals in search of an easier target.

By increasing the thickness of the film, you gain ballistic protection. While security film won’t stop a bullet, it will hold the glass in place upon impact, significantly slowing the shooter down and making him resort to excessive blunt force to gain entry. When every second counts, security film has been shown to slow down active shooters by more than 90 seconds, giving everyone inside a chance to take cover and emergency responders more time to arrive at the scene and defuse the situation.
